I loved this book! Alex Wise was such an adventure! It truly played out like a kooky kids apocalypse movie. And I enjoyed the entire ride!
A few things I enjoyed:
✨TJ Benton Walker’s level of vulnerability in this story is palpable and raw. A Black boy who is Queer is a very daunting experience. The experience for Queer Black kids is often times dangerous and to see the experience where they are the superhero is inspiring.
✨ The remixing of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse was everything! I can’t describe it. You literally have to experience it
I am excited for this series! I could see myself coming back to this when I need a little invasion action but on the lighter side.
