I thought this book was pretty good!! What i liked about it: I liked the superpowers that he had!!! I found reading about them very interesting.. This book was filled with suspense and lots of action that kept me on the edge of my seat and had me reading more..What i didnt like: I found the writing to be a little nerve wrecking..First it was written in 3rd person so all the name throwing around while the story read on was giving me a headache..For example (random names/action)- spud went to the car..spud jr said to spud whatever whatever and spud commented to spud jr blah blah...like that...Some parts were kind of cheesy..The last thing that got me was some of the characters were awful..The things that happened in the story were gut-wrenching and i had trouble stomaching what was going on...I did think this story was good and liked how it played out..I will be continuing reading the next book!!!
Excellent and unusual story. Michael Vey is small and has Tourette's Syndrome making him a magnet for bullies, but he does have one good friend, Ostin, the class nerd. Michael also has an unusual and secret talent--he can produce electricity and zap people. Then Michael meets Taylor, a popular cheerleader at his school and it turns out she has powers, too. This turns into a dangerous stand-off with the discovery of more electro-kids and some bad guys who want to use them to take over the world. Book 1 of a new series. Exciting and unusual, although it does remind me a bit of Kathy Reich's series, The Virals. Middle school, boys and girls who like adventure.
Decided I had better things to do than listen to this book.
