Not the cutting social commentary or shock factor of The Boys, maybe more on par with the cartoon Diabolical. (Yes, cartoon, not animation. Let’s admit we damaged adults love our YA fiction because adulting sucks.) The characters somehow balance artfully between corny and palatable. Pulpy fun, does not challenge my brain and that’s great because..
I can’t get enough. This one made me laugh audibly, cry a little, and feel things that no other book has really ever been able to make me feel. I’m more attached to this storyline than I have been to any other in a long time. Matt has created a cash cow. If he keeps..
