Ratings and reviews

Love the story but I gotta say, im not impressed with how some of the 2 page spreads get cut in half by my phone. Thats an issue with the google app moreso than the book itself.

This volume delves deeper into the sports competition, with character's stories and ambitions revealed. Also some interesting interactions between characters I wanted to see more of besides the main characters. This is getting intense!

Reminded me of the days of the X-Men before it became a soap opera
