This book ended up not being what I expected, but it was still a very good book! I wouldn’t read this if you are looking for a fantasy book, but if you’re looking for a crime drama then I would suggest this one.
This book is about Victor Vale and Eli Cardale/Ever and their hatred towards one another. They started out as college roommates but when a science experiment that they performed on themselves worked for Eli and not for Victor, he got jealous and tried the experiment again. Without Eli this time. The experiment is trying to give them superpowers, or turn themselves into ExtraOrdinary’s (EO’s) in other words. Someone gets killed and Victor and Eli decide to hate each other. One thing I thought I would like about the book, but ended up not liking, is the fact that they explain how Eli and Victor get their superpowers through science. I thought that would be cool to know, but it turns out it just made the powers less cool. More natural, as if anyone could become an EO if they wanted to.
My favorite part of the book was Victor picking Sydney up on the side of the road when she was hurt and taking her in. When he did that, I figured out who the “good guy” was and who the “bad guy” was. There should be a sequel coming out soon and I can’t wait to read it! Comment what you think!
