About this audiobook
Welcome to Andover . . . where superpowers are common, but internships are complicated. Just ask high school nobody, Jessica Tran. Despite her heroic lineage, Jess is resigned to a life without superpowers and is merely looking to beef-up her college applications when she stumbles upon the perfect (paid!) internship only it turns out to be for the town s most heinous supervillain. On the upside, she gets to work with her longtime secret crush, Abby, who Jess thinks may have a secret of her own. Then there's the budding attraction to her fellow intern, the mysterious 'M,' who never seems to be in the same place as Abby. But what starts as a fun way to spite her superhero parents takes a sudden and dangerous turn when she uncovers a plot larger than heroes and villains altogether.

4.5 stars — There’s just something about this story that just made me so happy while reading it. Sure, I was able to predict quite a few “twists”, but honestly? It didn’t matter ONE BIT. I was delighted to watch Jess figure things out on her own. And she was so wrapped up in her own struggles and crushes and whatnot, she missed a lot of really obvious clues. And yet I didn’t get too frustrated with her! It was a miracle.
