Heat Wave, by TJ Klune
3.0
I was so looking forward to this book. I loved "The Extraordinaries" and "Flash fire".
And in total this series has the best ADHD description I have read so far. Especially in book one.
"Hear wave" - I'm happy I read the conclusion especially after the cliffhanger of book two.
The characters were as lovely as I remembered. And somebody loves superhero stories. That was very obvious through the trilogy.
Unfortunately the first half of the book was so slow and read like ADHD (not in a good way), being everywhere and nowhere. After the cliffhanger I expected the resolution a little bit faster.
And after a while you could guess where the story was going. I wish the return of this special character would have been dealt with differently.
After the big revelation the book got so much better. The second half reminded me of book number one and two in the series. The fight scenes were incredible.
And throughout the book the characters laid themselves emotionally bare. The characters had no issues in talking about how they felt, whom they loved and taking responsibility for mistakes made. This is pretty rare in fantasy, since characters have to be strong and don't show emotions.
I loved the series and even if "Heat wave" is not my favorite, I would highly recommend the series. It is a lovely and fantastic ride.
