Not Your Sidekick

As much as I wanted to love this book, I just couldn't get myself all the way there.
There are some great things here, teenage superheroes, star-crossed romance, positive parent/kid relations, two girls in a healthy relationship, a trans-character, characters from different ethnicities, and to top it all off a really interesting setting– would you call it post-almost-apocalyptic ?? ?

So many good things here, which is what kept me going through the whole book, but the writing just didn't jive with me. The clearest marker of this being that I have a hard time reading present tense sometimes – so that is completely on me and not the book.
