This book is set in a world where there are these superheroes called Extraordinaries. The story follows a boy named Nick who has been obsessed with these heroes for years. He goes so far as to write fanfic about them. When his best friend starts becoming absent and Nick starts to feel like no one likes him for who he is, he starts devising plans to make himself become an extraordinary.
This book was so funny. I was laughing out loud constantly. The narrator was so perfect at bringing these characters to life. Each character has such a distinct personality, and Klune does such a good job of making you feel so deeply for all of them. I teared up a few times, I laughed out loud, and I gushed. TJ Klune has quickly become my favorite author due to his wholesome, lovely, funny stories. I will be reading every single book he ever releases from here on out. I'm so excited for “Flash Fire”, the sequel to this book, to come out. I will be listening to it as well because the narration made this book that much more incredible.
Everyone, please read this book.
