Please Don't Tell My Parents I'm a Supervillain

2.5 stars

I buddy read this with Jonny and lets just say it didn't go as good as we hoped it would. You can read his review here.

I don't really have much to say about this book. It sounded intriguing but it didn't quite work for me. It's told from the perspective of a 13 year old which is fine I have no problems reading from a younger perspective at all. My issue with this character is that she couldn't seem to make up her mind. Yes I know 13 year olds change their mind on things a million times and I get it to an extent but here it really got annoying. I thought toward the end that she finally had made up her mind and I was like ok but oh no she had to change her mind again.

Also some of the superpowers were lame and how the main characters powers were “described” felt like a cop out and just lazy to me. I was into it enough to want to finish it but I want be continuing on with the series.

So I was never going to get this (and 15 others) properly written up, so I posted quick, tweet-length thoughts about some things that have needed reviewed for far too long:
A cute story about kids of super-heroes/super-villains trying to get started in the biz without their parents' involvement. Went on longer than it needed to, but fun enough to try volume 2.
