I really loved this. I was in the mood for superheroes and secret identities and this did not disappoint. I loved the found family aspect and of course the slow burn enemies to lovers (although they don’t know it). I really liked the political nature of this government of superheroes and the way that both our main characters question it’s legitimacy. Both Adrian and Nova see how the Council isn’t fit to govern but they differ in their beliefs on how things should be. Adrian seems to lean more towards a world with stereotypical superheroes who are slightly more like vigilantes while Nova believes a world without prodigies would be the best. Nova is super pessimistic and very cynical but I love her for it. I adored Adrian and his “heartfelt drawings.” Overall, this was a great set up for the rest of the series and I’m excited to see where that cliffhanger leads.
