Hero

It’s all YA all the time for me. It seems like every book on my TBR pile is YA. Weird, but I like it except that it makes me want to do a year long YA challenge or something. Anyway, the YA I’m blogging about right now is QUEER YA! Hero was pretty darn amusing and that’s high praise because I don’t really love comic book heroes and that’s what this story is about.

A boy, who happens to be gay also happens to have super powers. He struggles with a dad who doesn’t have super powers but used to be a super hero and who doesn’t want his son to be gay. He struggles with a mom who left him when he was young and, well… I won’t give away more of the plot line.

There’s a very happy ending though not everyone lives happily ever after – which is as it should be in the world of comic book super heroes and families, right?
