![]() Some books transcend age groups, but this isn’t one of them, and by muddling the line of which category it belongs to, it doesn’t fit in either. I try to find the good in anything I read, but this book was a long hard slog with very little to reward my perseverance.įirst of all, Masked suffers from identity confusion – it includes some sexual content that seems as though it’s aimed at the New Adult market, but the characters are all so juvenile that this could fit into the Middle Grade category. No one ever said that being a superhero was easy…Īfter tremendously enjoying Dreadnought about a teenage girl with newly discovered superpowers trying to make a difference, I thought I would equally enjoy Masked, about a couple of teens with powers using them for good. Somehow, with the help-and hindrance-of an annoying newly-minted super named Orion, Vada has to stop the chaos before it destroys her and everything she holds dear…and ruins her superhero debut. ![]() Then their mutilated corpses begin turning up all over town. Not trained to control their new abilities, the normals are frightened and vulnerable. But her indoctrination into the underground super community is derailed when normals start breaking out in superpowers themselves. Born into a family with special powers, she’s been training to fight criminals and villains her whole life. ![]() ![]() Vada Lawson can’t wait to be a superhero. Genre: Young Adult, Fantasy/Science Fiction ![]()
