Here’s the set-up for James Macia’s High School Heroes – 4 out of 5 rave reviews, $4.79 on Kindle:
On Christine Carpenter’s first day of her sophomore year at Thomas Jefferson High School she makes a startling discovery. She can hear peoples’ thoughts. After convincing herself she’s not going crazy, Chris must learn to control her amazing mind-reading ability.
Using her power she quickly realizes her crush, the captain of the football team, is also blessed with a special ability. She is soon sucked into a world she never thought possible when two more of her classmates, and a teacher, turn out to have powers as well.
What are they meant to do with their special gifts that can either help or harm others? Christine soon finds out when a monster, lurking in the depths of her school, threatens to murder the student population. When it becomes apparent that the creature is someone she knows, she must decide whether to try and save him, or destroy the beast. If she chooses destruction, can she live with the consequences?
From the reviewers:
From the very first word until the last, Mr. Mascia had me enthralled within the world of teenage angst, super powers, evil villains, and trying to find oneself. The way Chris struggled with her powers shows me that if superheroes were true, then this book could be based in reality. High School Heroes is the best young adult book I have read in a long time! – Danielle, Reviewer for Coffee Time Romance & More
High School Heroes is definitely a cute, easy read that appeals to the comic-book side to everyone. Overall this was a great read that had a nice flow to it. It had a few twists and turns that kept me guessing and great, relatable characters. I definitely recommend this one! – GloriousBooks
High School Heros has Action, Adventure, Thrill and Mystery with a very contemporary high school romance. – Christa “CubicleBlindness”
