The Prisoner of Cell 25 - Richard Paul Evans

Tremendous surprise.....my son read this and I wanted to read it as well. This book far surpassed my expectations. One of the more original books I've read since the first Harry Potter, this book grabs you from the start and just gets better and better. More volumes of this story are forthcoming by the author.....word of the day: Electroclan.

Michael Vey: The Prisoner of Cell 25 and Rise of the Elgen (Michael Vey, #1 and #2) - Richard Paul Evans

I really enjoyed reading this book. The plot line was fantastic and the writing was great. When this book was originally recommended to me I wasn't to excited but this book went way beyond my expectations and it is definitely worth reading.

The Prisoner of Cell 25 by Richard Paul Evans
By Richard Paul Evans: Michael Vey: The Prisoner of Cell 25 - -Simon Pulse/Mercury Ink-

The Prisoner of Cell 25 is a YA novel that follows a high school student named Michael Vey who has a very unusual secret, he can control electricity.  As with most YA novels this one starts out with Michael in high school, he's not one of the popular kids and only has one true friend.  He gets picked on a lot and because he's trying to keep his "powers" secret, he can't fight back against the torment.  Michael of course is in love with the hottest girl in school, Taylor Riddley.  One day when Michael is leaving school three bullies start jump him, after a little bit of scraping Michael reaches his breaking point and zaps the three other boys.  Taylor who is leaving cheer practice see's all this take place, and now she know's his secret.  Come to find out Taylor has electrical powers as well, although they differ from Michael's.

 

All in all this was a pretty fun read, nothing too deep and meaningful though.  I've heard the term "mind candy before and I think that fits this book pretty well.  It doesn't do anything different, and pretty much follows the same pattern as the rest of the YA.  I also noticed a few grammatical errors, but those don't really bother me unless it gets REALLY bad.

Reading progress update: I've read 70%.
By Richard Paul Evans: Michael Vey: The Prisoner of Cell 25 - -Simon Pulse/Mercury Ink-

Pretty good YA read so far, following the same lines as every other YA novel.  The non-popular kid in high school has amazing powers and is in love with the hottie cheerleader.

 

So the first half of the novel is about how Michael deals with high school and the second half is how he deals with the people who want to exploit his power.  Typical YA novel but fun none the less.
