Never Too Late for Heroes by A.L. Brooks

��️‍����‍❤‍����⚢��‍♀‍��‍♀‍����‍♀‍⚡‍��‍♀‍����‍♀‍����‍♀‍��‍⚕‍��‍♀‍��‍♀‍��‍♀️��‍❤‍ ��‍��������️‍�� That’s in exchange of an honest review that I received an ARC of « Never Too Late for Heroes » (The Superheroine Collection – Book 6) by A.L. Brooks from Ylva Publishing… Thank you so much for providing me this book. … My rating : 5 ⭐️ OKAYYYYYYYYYYYYY … long story, short : It was a fabulous book that I couldn’t put down … I definitely had a blast while reading it !!! But since the review must be a tad longer than that, here it is in its extended version !!! ������ The story sets in the US (in various locations) and focuses, or at least we think it does, on Agent Genna Fox who is a legend in the Agency & has been desk sitting for the last six years while counting her days until retirement… & on Agent Leigh Walker, Genna’s rookie partner. But there’s more depth in the book than we think … Because, « on stage », between others, we also find some feisty retirees : Reed, Mary, Sunny and Val Power, four cousins who are calling Hazy Days Residential Care « home » for the past six years but don’t take retirement lying down and Dana Chapman, a newly hired and very nosy nurse at Hazy Days : she’s a real busybody, and, accordingly, in constant need to snoop especially around the intriguing Power cousins … Once they’ll be all reunited for some reasons (you’ll have to read the novel to know wich one �� ), they’ll all lead us is a cracking, funny, exciting and empowering adventure with a lil touch of romance … The Pros : ° the author’s great writing style ° the very original « combination » giving the story all its sense… Which one ??? This one => in there we don’t have 1 or 2 lead characters … nope … we’ve got a pack of 8 MCs composed by : a seasonned agent waiting for retirement, four retired superheroes without any power since a while, 1 superheroine presumed dead but Agent Fox (aka her secret lover) never gave up on her, a rookie agent & a very nosy nurse… All those people will end up assembled to take down 1 supervillain, one who was also supposedly dead … ° the aging MCs (superheroes or not). I loved this fact since we always need more diversity in our lil niche. Older characters are very welcome since I’m no cougar and, like anyone else, I’m not getting younger… & TBH, I prefer reading books staring mature characters … ° the two different rom arcs found in this novel. OK, they are at the minimum romance level (that’s not the first purpose of the book after all ) but, like me, I think a lot of people will fall for them nonetheless … ° a LOT of humor is found in there. There are some very funny stuff all the novel long but some other stuff are just hilarious & I laughed out loud, a lot. It was soooooooooo good !!! ° the comic book side of the novel… OK, that’s not a graphic novel but it’s here nonetheless. While reading this novel (instead of some traditional comic books) I dived in a « universe » I really appreciated … Great job Ms Brooks !!! ‘cause it really was like reading the scenario of a great comics movie that I’d love to watch on a big screen … I didn’t have any trouble picturing all those ladies, the great group dynamics, the action & the funny banters in my mind’s eye … I didn’t eat any pop-corn, though. BUT if someone wants to shoot this movie someday, you can be sure I’ll go to the cinema and enjoy it and, for once, I’ll even take a full(and huge) bucket of caramelized pop-corn �� The Cons : maybe, for some people, there are some but not for me … even if there were some, there are so many « Pros » we can oppose to them that they wouldn’t even deserve to be mentioned. If I had to make a very short and quite different version of my review, it’d be something like this : Did I enjoy this book? => Hell, yes !!!… Did I find the characters believable? => Yes Is this book now included in my « must be re-read »-list? => Yes Will I purchase the paperback? => Yes, ASAP Would I read another book by this author? => Definitely, yes … I can’t wait for the next novel ! Would I recommend this book => Yes, to everyone but espcecially to the comic books fans Happy reading, all !!! ��‍♀‍����������❤️��‍♀‍ ��️‍����‍❤‍����⚢��‍♀‍��‍♀‍����‍♀‍⚡‍��‍♀‍����‍♀‍����‍♀‍��‍⚕‍��‍♀‍��‍♀‍��‍♀️��‍❤‍ ��‍��������️‍��
