False Memory by Dan Krokos

"Go Go Power Rangers! The Mighty Morph..." oh, wait, that's something else. Sorry, I get so confused. Ahh, yes, False Memory by Dan Krokos. First off, I must have enjoyed the story. I read it in one sitting. But...but...is it ironic that I'm having trouble remembering it? I remember the basic storyline, but the details are lost....Nevertheless, we shall power on! OK, good things about this book: 1) fighting scenes 2) magnetic armor (want!) 3) cliffhanger leaves me wanting more, and 4) kids with superpowers! Alright, moving on to the things I didn't like so much about this book: 1) cliffhanger leaves me wanting more...not a whole new story, just a resolution 2) kids with superpowers! See how you can read that sentence two totally different ways? For once, I'd like the non-superpower kid to have his day. We can't all blow up cars with our minds...(no matter how hard we try...) So, I did enjoy this book, but I wish it had been a well-resolved stand-alone novel instead of falling into the multi-book scheme that's trapping all YA novels recently. HOLD ON DAN KROKOS! I'LL THROW YOU A ROPE! PULL YOURSELF FREE FROM THE YA TRILOGY PIT!
