Amelia Cole and the Unknown World by D. J. Kirkbride, Adam P. Knave

3.0

Super meh. Reminds me of premises from a lot of other fantasy/superhero narratives (Spider-Man, Daughter of Smoke & Bone for the portal crossings), and it doesn't really innovate them in new ways.

Cool lady lead who's not so bad with her wrench-wand, whether she's fixing pipes or fighting baddies, and she's always hungry so I identify.

Poor diverse representation, though. I'd recommend this as a step up for lovers of the AMULET series if it were able to invigorate its vague storyline, but I likely won't pick up the second volume.
