I love it when Nick's dad embarrasses him with sex talk, but overall this book was predictable and the big fight at the end was so forgettable, it was being erased from my brain as I was reading it.

However, I must say that Klune does a masterful job at conveying the mind of a normal teenage boy with ADHD.

Nick is such a precious character!! This book is somehow thirstier, sweeter, and also more serious than the first. I had to let out a scream or two by the end, read it!

I love Klune books, love his perspective, love his style. SInce Flash Fire I've read other books by him that make me swoon, they're so lovely.

Flash Fire, the second installment in TJ Klune’s The Extraordinaries series, delivers a mix of action, heart, and humor that fans of the first book will thoroughly enjoy. Picking up where The Extraordinaries left off, we follow Nick Bell, an endearingly awkward and big-hearted fan-fiction writer, as he navigates his complex relationships in a city brimming with super-powered individuals.

Klune’s writing shines with witty dialogue and quirky characters while tackling important themes of self-discovery, mental health, and LGBTQ+ identity. Nick’s journey to becoming more confident in his abilities and himself is heartfelt and relatable, especially as he continues to struggle with ADHD and personal insecurities. His relationships with his dad, friends, and love interest, Seth, are wonderfully fleshed out.

It’s a must-read for fans of the series and anyone who loves a fresh take on superhero stories.

TJ Klune is a master at crafting worlds and characters with depth. The relationships and friendships in this series are beautiful and very human. Klune is also great at the little touches of humor, it makes the story even more sweet. I love the friend group and getting to know each character even more. The prose is always spot on for whatever Klune is writing. So much heart!

This book was pretty hilarious. There's something about how ridiculous Nicky is and the rest of his friends that makes for some of the funniest scenes ever.

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for the advanced copy of Flash Fire by TJ Klune.

TJ Klune is one of my favourite authors and I always look forward to reading his books. Flash Fire is the sequel to the Extraordinaries and was just as great as the first one. TJ has a way of writing that makes you feel part of the story. He can make the story relatable even if it is about superheroes.

This is a must read sequel that if you’ve read The Extraordinaries you’re bound to love.

I really enjoyed this take on a superstory story-- however, some parts do feel a little fluffy, and it feels like not much is happening. However, its a fun and easy read so it is still super enjoyable.

The absolute best way to consume these books are through the audio. They are some of the most entertaining audiobooks I have ever listened to. I loved this book, although it was frustratingly obvious about so many things. The end blew my mind.

I don’t often read super hero style stories but, as always, T. J. Klune does it wonderfully. A thoroughly entertaining series so far.

I really enjoy everything TJ Klune writes, and this was enjoyable enough. It was not a favorite, nor was it particularly memorable. I did not continue with the series, but I do find the romance aspect very sweet.

loved this next book in the series. Nick and Seth are so cute together. Taking off a star because the reveal that Nick has superpowers is so foreshadowed, it felt very heavy handed. But the writing is very good and I really enjoyed reading it.

This book was just sadly not for me! I was hoping for something different but it turned out to be something I was not expecting, which is okay and I'm sure someone else would love it!

This book is perfect. There is literally nothing to criticize about it. Tj Klune is a master of writing witty dialogue and I'll forever read anything he writes. I want this series to continue forever, though I know it's coming to an end.

I had to DNF this book. I am a big fan of TJ Klune's books for adults, but this one had a different tone, and it just wasn't for me. I also realized, after the fact, that this is book two of a series called The Extraordinaries, and since I had not read book one, I did not want to start the series with book two.

No matter what TJ Klune book I pick up, I’m never left disappointed.
There is something in the way he writes that always pulls me in.
His characters are so funny, relatable but absolutely never flat. He has the ability to make me laugh one moment and sob the next.
I adored this next instalment of super hero shenanigans and can’t wait to pick up the next!

The second book was just as strong as the first one and I can't wait to finish the series. TJ Klune can do no wrong as an author.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me a free advanced copy of this book to read and review.

Wow just wow! I don’t know how this author can create worlds so vivid & asks tough questions that we should be asking ourselves & spin it in to a wondrous, beautiful tale but he does. If you want to laugh & cry at the same time & also have your heart put through a blender then read this book & then go out & read everything this man has ever written.

Thank you to NetGalley, Macmillan-Tor/Forge, and Tor Teen for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This was one of those rare occasions when I enjoyed the sequel even more than the first book. I feel like in a lot of cases the first books are usually either the best book in a series or close to the best. However, this book was definitely a favorite.

I absolutely love all of these characters so much and I would read so many more books about them. Nick, Seth, Jazz, and Gibby are the definition of friendship goals and I loved to read the continuation of their story.

This book was such an amazing rollercoaster of emotions from start to finish and I HIGHLY recommend it!
