I am so excited to be a part of the blog tour for Super Adjacent by, Crystal Cestari. Thank you to The Fantastic Flying Book Club for this opportunity to read and review this “super” fun book!
And don’t miss my interview with the author in a separate post!

Genre: Young Adult, LGBT, Comic, Superheroes
Synopsis:
Claire has always wanted to work with superheroes, from collecting Warrior Nation cards as a kid to drafting “What to Say to a Hero” speeches in her diary. Now that she’s landed a coveted internship with the Chicago branch of Warrior Nation, Claire is ready to prove she belongs, super or not. But complicating plans is the newest WarNat hero, Girl Power (aka Joy), who happens to be egotistical and self-important . . . and pretty adorable.
Bridgette, meanwhile, wants out of WarNat. After years of dating the famous Vaporizer (aka Matt), she’s sick of playing second, or third, or five-hundredth fiddle to all the people-in-peril in the city of Chicago. Of course, once Bridgette meets Claire-who’s clearly in need of a mentor and wingman-giving up WarNat becomes slightly more complicated. It becomes a lot more complicated when Joy, Matt, and the rest of the heroes go missing, leaving only Claire and Bridgette to save the day.
In this fresh and funny take on the world of supers, author Crystal Cestari spotlights what it’s like to be the seemingly non-super half of a dynamic duo with banter-filled romance and bold rescues perfect for readers seeking a great escape.
Super Adjacent is a unique look at the lives of superheroes and how their job affects those around them. Have you ever thought about what it was like to be Lois Lane? How it feels to see the man you love in danger again and again? Super Adjacent explores the lives of Claire and Bridgette, two women who live lives “adjacent” to famous superheroes.
I had such a great time reading this book. It made me think. It made me smile. It made me care about the characters (those with super powers and those without) and I missed them as soon as I was done reading.
What I appreciated the most about this book was that, after you wrapped your mind around a world with people with super powers, it all felt very believable. The characters felt like real people. The world was an easy one to escape into and it was fun to be there. This to me, is the hallmark of a great book. I want books to transport me somewhere and make me feel something. Super Adjacent did all of that.

Thanks for giving your ideas. I might also like to express that video games have been ever before evolving. Better technology and revolutions have made it easier to create realistic and active games. These kind of entertainment games were not as sensible when the actual concept was being tried. Just like other areas of technological innovation, video games as well have had to grow as a result of many ages. This is testimony for the fast progression of video games.
