PJV Quickie: In Amelia Kahaney’s THE BROKENHEARTED you have a unique mix of superhero story, bleak dystopian scifi and young adult romance. Kahaney weaves them all together in an “out the box” delivery that left me thinking about this book weeks after reading it. Unique, tragic and delightfully grit...

You're shitting me. With an ending like that I have to read itHere's to hoping Anthem is a better character. than in this book.Also, worldbuilding. No chance of instalove though right?
One would think Batman meets ballet something different. One would be wrong. Try Googling Batman, ballet, dance or any combination thereof; you’d be surprised how not-quite original the concept of this book was. I mean, consider: , or As is usual for me, I didn’t bother with the blurb and dove stra...
