Review:
Five boys, Five senses, and a superpower adventure against an evil impossible to defeat make for a good read. Each character is given an equal amount of detail and attention to the development of the characters. No one stood out more than the others characters, which is a unique way to write a story. The honest life dialogue in the story is fresh and prevalent to the teens who pick up this tale. The friendship between the boys and the integration with siblings and families make for compelling and relatable characters.
Centering around superpowers and the five senses being an intricate part of that made this ya novel stand out. The author compels readers to think about the situations encountered in this tale. Cases involve community, loyalty, honesty, fear, risk-taking, and comradeship. It is a novel you will want to read all in one day so buckle up for a superpower adventure.
