When an evil artifact offers you the power to turn into a monster, agreeing would be stupid. Mirabelle isn't stupid. She also doesn't have much choice. Her friends all have superpowers that let them go on exciting adventures. Mirabelle's superpower is to be made of glass, and walking across a room is dangerous enough.

But the shiny rock won't shut up, and to get rid of it, she has to use the powers against it. She does that carefully, because Mirabelle isn't stupid.

Until Mirabelle falls in love, and love makes everyone stupid.

Now, supervillains and superheroes are fighting over four pieces of the Heart of Vermiel, and a girl who breaks if she runs has to collect them all. She has to turn into a monster on the outside without turning into a monster on the inside. Somewhere in this mess there has to be an ending that lets her stay alive, stay a good person, and maybe get a chance to run, be angry, and break things just once.

Besides, how many girls can say their boyfriend is a dragon?

This is another good entry in the series. My main complaint is that the narrator mispronounced a good number of words, and every time it happened it really took me out of the story.

Good book, so-so narrator

How much different way of looking at a heroes world. From the distinct point of view of someone who has to watch out for every small bump and injury. Her tilt on this world is fascinating just as some of the older characters from the Siri showing back up for a bit parts, even if you’d like to see more of them.

A great addition to the series

This one didn't go where I expected, and that was fun. It had less world building than previous books in the series, but I suppose the Please Don't Tell universe is pretty well built by now. It took a while to get going, but it never felt like a chore to read, and the characters were fun to follow, especially Mirabel. It's also fun catching glimpses of Starshine in the years after her time in the prequel book about Spider and Goodnight.

The narrator was mostly pretty good, though she occasionally mispronounced words, which always gets up my nose. My only complaint is no Lucy Far. If you're reading this, Mr Roberts, plz write her into more of your work 🥺

Slow start, strong finish

The story was another fun extension of the superhero world, and it gave a different view of the teens in the main group. The narrator, however, needs to look up words she doesn’t know how to pronounce. One or two mispronounced words are understandable, but errors were littered throughout the story and were extremely distracting. Some were complex words, but others were simple words that are just not commonly used in everyday conversation. As a professional narrator, don’t guess. Look up the pronunciations!
