Captain Marvel: Higher, Further, Faster by Liza Palmer
2.0
I’m giving this a generous two star. It took me two months to get through this book, and I skimmed the last five chapters just to get to the end.
There was nothing relatable about Carol in this at all. Maybe I don’t know her character well enough, but I just couldn’t find anything about her to like. I really struggled with this book. It focused on a lot of boring parts, including chatting at lunch and studying - but we didn’t get to experience some of the more interesting parts. It seemed to brush over events, skipping straight to “and we finished our test run for this” only to then tell us all about them sat at lunch.
I only read this because I wanted to read more Carol Danvers content, but was thoroughly disappointed. The intent of the story was there, but the quality could have been a lot better.
