Miles Morales 2

man I LOVED [b:Miles Morales: Spider-Man 32793053 Miles Morales Spider-Man Jason Reynolds https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1495746889l/32793053.SY75.jpg 53387226] but this didn't hit as hard for me–it felt a lot like retreading the same material without adding a lot. Which on one hand, I know, that's kind of the whole superhero thing. But I guess I expected more after how great the first one was–I really really loved the way it blended superhero shenanigans with institutional racism and I thought the Big Bad was so clever. This book felt like repetitive enough that it didn't hold up to the first one, but also SO immediately a sequel to the first one that I don't think it would necessarily stand on its own. And also the pacing–it basically all takes place in one day (of In School Suspension, which he got from events of the previous book) and it just.....yeah it felt rushed and odd. I did still really like Miles' poems–Jason Reynolds is OBV a great writer I just don't think this is his best.
