Dull Boy, by Sarah Cross

Dull Boy, by Sarah Cross
Young Adult, 2009

from the publisher:
What do you do if you can deadlift a car, and you spend your nights flying to get away from it all? If you're fifteen-year-old Avery Pirzwick, you keep that information to yourself. When you're a former jock turned freak, you can't afford to let the secret slip.

Trackgeek:
Interesting twist on the superpower/mutant genre. One nice part of the book was that it didn't have the teenagers acting quite so much like college students like many other books in the Teen genre. Some good plot ideas, but over all not amazing. The highlight for me was the mention of Wagner's Ring Cycle and leitmotif.

Grade: B.
