09 - All my friends are Superheroes, by Andrew Kaufman
WHY I PICKED IT: Saw it at a book store in London
ELAPSED TIME: 1 Day
RATING: Good
This short book is really ... odd. 249 superheroes in the city of Toronto, but none of them are Super Evil. Also, none of them have been able to monetize their powers; they're just really good at one thing.
Tom's wife The Perfectionist can reorganize a mess by willing it to be perfect. But in the six months that she's been married, she cannot see Tom because her ex-boyfriend (The Hypnotist) made him invisible to her. This is the story of how Tom met, fell in love with, and married The Perfectionist... and how he got her to see him again.
Good if you want something lighthearted to pass an hour or two of your time...
This blog is a simple review of every book that I read... For all books I’ll tell you why I picked it, how long it took me to read it, and give it a rating (burn it, not good, meh, good, very good, and required reading). I ask (encourage?) all readers of my blog to post their thoughts of any of the books in my comments :). Thanks!
