It starts out with Marrow- he is the main character- trying to score really high on his superhero placement test. He's basically a really powerful superhero who has the power to change his bone density, allowing him to smash through walls and jump really really high since he can make himself very heavy or very light. He gets teamed up with his least favorite superhero as his sidekick, Flex. Flex has stretchy powers, and Marrow think that's kind of dumb. They end up having to figure out how to work together even though sometimes they really get on each other's nerves. There's a super awesome climax that I won't spoil here, with twists that you don't expect. You just have to read it for yourself.I would see this book is really good for anyone who likes Hunger Games or Maze Runner, but it also has an added touch of humor that makes it unique. It's especially awesome if you love comic books or superheroes. Even if you don't you will be engaged with the story. I recommended it!

The reader is left to guess whether our hero doesn't understand that he's super strong and borderline invulnerable or if someone By James There's nothing wrong with the premise of Marrow - only in the execution.Our main character has a superpower that would kill him the way he uses it. The reader is left to guess whether our hero doesn't understand that he's super strong and borderline invulnerable or if someone flat-out lied to him about it. The ability to increase your bone density doesn't make you stronger. Just the opposite, in fact. It would weigh you down. At one point he smashes through a car - and does so without so much as a scratch. Your bones could be solid steel, but your skin and organs would still be pulped.Our main character is 14 years old, for reasons that escape me. Maybe because despite being lauded as a genius, he's really, really slow on the uptake? His age might be an excuse for the reader to cut him some slack. Honestly, it's fine - I'd just cut the line or two where people praise him for being smart. I don't see superheroes lining up to train fourteen year olds, though. The liability insurance alone would be insane. Was the age chosen just to avoid too much romantic subplot? To aim the book at younger readers? It comes off as being an arbitrary and poorly justified choice.Telekinetic + Telepathic does not equal Omnipotent. Again, I could see how the writer wants to stress what a useful, powerful combo that would be... but 'all powerful' is a bit much. It was such a bad choice of term it yanked me right out of the narrative. Why not 'Advanced Mind' or 'Dual-aspect Mentat,' or just about anything that actually pertains to mental powers and not godhood?One person in every 20 in this world has superpowers. That's insane. That's six or seven times as many demigods walking around as there are rich people. You'd be overrun by villains. FedEx would be entirely staffed by teleporters and speedsters. Never mind superheroes, if 5% of the cops have powers. Also the military... you'd have super-geniuses running businesses and colleges and the unpowered would be all but literally begging for scraps. Even if most people with powers have minor powers, that many of them would seriously reorder the society in ways that aren't touched on in this story.All that having been said - it was a fun read. Well paced, with characters that weren't unlikable. I would have preferred to see the protagonists aged another five years, and the book doubled in length and taken more seriously by the author... I'm glad I read it, but... there was a lot of potential here that was never explored.

By Alyssean I know when I am really into a book, because I will stop reading at certain parts and wait until I have a secluded area and plenty of time, with no interruptions, so I can get everything I can out of a scene. While reading Marrow, I had many moments like that. The writing style I found to be quirky, and full of originality. It was just plain, good writing and it flowed. The way the protagonist, Marrow, describes certain places and people made me laugh. I loved his cocky attitude, and his good heart. It had great twists here and there, and I loved that the story unfolded in a non predictable way. It was a new take on superheroes, and yes, just saying "He's Batman," does justify any situation. You'll understand when you read it.
