Underrated Book Series Recommendations

Here are some recommendations for series I think don't get half as much hype or attention as they deserve. The first page has book details, the second has a summary and my review/opinion of it!

I've created plain text versions - these with image descriptions in the ALT - of the reviews below the cut for legibility.

#shay posts #I have another series to add but I first need to reread it since its been a while #also gotta get my hands on the rest of the series #its so under-appreciated that trying to find it is difficult lol #book recommendation #book rec #super powereds #a natural history of dragons #memoirs by lady trent #cradle #cradle series #wei shi lindon arelius #wei shi lindon #my hero acedamia #boku no hero academia #bnha

ok like 1 of my mutuals will know what i'm talking about but i NEED to talk about what an unintentional trans metaphor the main cast was in Super Powereds. Like, there's the obvious transition element- the 5 of them go through a medical procedure that, despite them genetically being Powereds, functionally turns them into Supers. And this has an immediate and significant positive impact on their mental health and social functioning.

But even beyond that- throughout the first book they have to go stealth, because people finding out about that transition would pose a risk to their safety. When they're forcibly outed, several of their friends get mad because they felt entitled to know this detail about them, despite it having quite literally 0 impact on them or their friendships. Dean Blaine notes that part of why people react so negatively is because society has developed around the binary system of supereds vs powereds, and their mere existence threatens that.

And what particularly hits for me is that their decision to transition didn't have anything to do with that kind of societal change. They made a personal decision to improve their own well-being, and the world decided to take issue with it.

You ever really get into a thing?

And then you find out there isn’t much of that thing?

But you LOVE that thing so much that you need MORE of that thing? So you consume all the fandom stuff and then there’s no more.

And then you get salty that the thing didn’t get as much love as it deserved and that other, dumber things got WAY more attention, and more content.

And now you can no longer even watch the thing you loved in the first place because you don’t want to get sick of it?

And there’s no one to talk to about it?

Or barely anyone you know has seen or cares for it?

…yeah…

I feel like there are just some authors that should get more attention. And by some authors I mean Drew Hayes. Please for the love of an entity check out his books.

A while back I minorly fixated on Bubbles, from Super Powereds and I ended up with a headcanon and an AU about her that I wanted to share.

Headcanon: Bubbles is a fan of Bubble Bubble from Corpies

Au: Bubbles is an already graduated subtlety hero and a member of Modus Operandi. She's at Lander on an undercover mission, potentially as an extra set of eyes on the Melbrook situation. Her time with Nick was basically her going "this kid thinks he's slick. Time to annoy him to death"

Vince (about to throw an attack): Hershel: Wait! (Throws a neutralization band over ‘Alex’s’ head, he shifts back to Adam) Vince: Hershel, how did you know that was Adam? Hershel: Thomas said there’s nothing he could say that would make you realize he’s really him, but Alex does have a thing he can say that does make me realize he is really not him. Vince: What? Hershel: I called Alex “a telepath,” but he didn’t say, “Not a telepath.” The real Alex always says, “Not a telepath.” Thomas: Oh, wow. That realization is the only thing that stopped me from becoming a pile of goo.

I feel like Drew Hayes’s ultimate goal in writing Super Powereds is to get the reader to say “Oh… they’re a little bit fucked up” about as many characters as possible, louder and louder over the course of the series until by the end you’re constantly either cheering it or sobbing it.

ok so camille can absorb pain and that would include cramps right? so being the angel she is she’d help out her girlies when they’re suffering but since she can also give back the pain I’m picturing them all at one of the parties and it somehow comes up and bc boys they’re like ‘nah it can’t be that bad’ and the girls are like ‘oh wanna bet’ and then they do the ‘men try a period simulator’ trend only it’s for real-sies

"You think I'm holding on to my pain too tightly."

"No Ralph, I think it's holding you. These gestures, these habits, these compulsions, they aren't ours. They're what the holes in our heart demand from us for the ability to fall asleep at night. We're slaves to them, but that doesn't mean we have to be obedient ones. You need to fight back on occasion. Come live a bit, if only for tonight."

I think Dispatch is a powered.

I think her power is something like Jill's interfacing with technology and Abridial's dream walking.

She's always available and has information about as many things as she does because her body is laying comatose somewhere while her brain is interfacing with satellites and cell phones across the globe.
