Superfail (Marshall and the Defectives) av Max Brunner
Note: I accessed a digital review copy of this book through Edelweiss.
A book that fans of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series will love, Superfail is a combination of well-written story and fun illustrations that will appeal to middle grade and adult readers alike. You can't help but cheer for the main character, the most hapless kid to have superpowers in the history of superheroes.
Marshall has super powers -- but they don't work like they are supposed to: his laser eyes are crossed meaning he shoots one laser in the right direction and one in the very wrong direction. He also can fly -- but gets motion sick every time he tries. His best friend is a telepath who says everything everyone is thinking outloud and the rest of his "team" isn't any better. Still, when they find out that someone is trying to take down the real Super Team of their town, they won't let their defective superpowers stop them!
I like the concept, I like the message about making the most of who you are, but I did not like the puking. Once would have been enough.… (mer)

A clever take on the superhero story. Misfits with superpowers that are just a little off, ultimately come together to fight evil. The set up and the individual characters are charming and well developed. The plot slows in the middle and an older character is brought in which muddles the waters a bit, but overall a fun read.
I received an advanced copy of this book from the publisher via netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Thanks!
