I really really hope that when this book was launched it came with an action figure! :)

Mort of the Month. Awww, now that's just mean.

Actually this was a really fun book to read. Ryan is a twenty-something guy who has the ability to, get this, turn himself into a fly. Now frankly, of all the super powers possible, I don't think being able to turn myself into a bug would be the one I'd pick. Think of the things a fly is apt to land on (icky poo). Ryan does but only when he's a fly thank goodness. Think of the dangers of fly swatters or dangling fly paper or frogs!. Seems kind of dangerous to me.

As luck would have it, Ryan meets a girl who also has super powers. What are the chances of that! Cassandra can make things disappear. So they team up and form Superheroes for Social Justice and take on various "bad guys", such as the cigarette companies and the local newspaper.

I liked the characters. They were appealing, all round nice kids. Ryan seemed a bit more immature than his girlfriend, but then Cassandra has a daughter and so would be more familiar with adulthood. While the premise seems a bit silly, the book was not without its serious moments. And, sometimes it was down right sweet. All in all an enjoyable read.

Everyone who collects actions figures knows that
they are virtually worthless out of the box. That's not true of this book. You gotta read it to appreciate it.

Hello lucky reader.

You are holding a special book. A book that wants to be read by many different readers, and wants it previous readers to know where it has been. Please consider making a journal entry – you can remain anonymous if you like, and it costs nothing.

I hope you will consider joining this global book club, and if you do, I hope you will list me – teenie-k, as your referring member. Basic membership is free, and bookcrossing is a lot of fun.

You may do what you like with this book, but I hope you will consider passing it on, to a friend, co-worker, family, or just leave it somewhere new for someone else to find. If you have become a member, you might get to read about this book’s future adventures!

Happy Reading,
teenie-k

I remember when this book came to a BookCrossing meetup first but I held back and let someone else take it. But it came back tonight and I grabbed it. Thanks Pooker, teenie-k and judysh for giving me another chance at it.
