From School Library Journal Gr 6–10—Flynn (pseudonym for writing duo Stuart Sherman and Elisabeth Donnelly) continues the catalogue of the teenage mishaps of Sarah Robertson, a Misshape who wields untrained dominion over weather forces. This second installment tackles the frenzy of the latest U.S. presidential election and its ripple effect into the quaint hamlet of Doolittle Falls. Sarah spends her time managing the personal dramas of her deadbeat brother, absent dad, and secretive best friend, while worrying about the suspicious partnership between fully fledged Heroes and powerful politicians. Though the cast of characters are encouragingly diverse, the protagonists suffer from too little development, and readers will be left craving more about these talented teens and their unique powers. Sarah takes steps to explore her own skills, but only when her male crush (a weather-working Hero named Sam) encourages her, at all other times remaining fearful of her abilities. Disappointingly, this volume fails to carry the spirit of The Misshapes: The Coming Storm (Polis, 2014), in part because there are frustratingly few details until late into the book regarding corrupt corporation PeriGenomics or of reported supervillain Lady Oblivion's abrupt disappearance. Teens are required to rely on the tension built up in the first novel to maintain their interest here, and new readers will not find any clues to the story arc, past or present. The writers wait too long to move the story along, instead creating a novel-length press of the pause button. VERDICT A lukewarm sequel to the previous energetic series opener.—Chelsea Woods, New Brunswick Free Public Library
Review "Fans will continue to marvel at the creative twist on typical superpowers, as well as the complex web the government builds. Exciting plot twists and vivid imagery propel the story forward and should have readers rooting for the Misshapen heroes. A unique, thoughtful treatment of citizens’ role in society and the right of dissent."—BooklistPraise for The Misshapes: The Coming Storm (Book 1):"There is much here for fans of "Harry Potter" to enjoy: a school for teens with super powers, a dramatic sporting event called Harpastball, and humorous characters such as Butters, a boy whose super power is summoning a ghostly singing group that broadcasts his thoughts musically (he hasn't mastered sending them away yet). And for romance fans, there's a love triangle brewing here, too. (An) imaginative, action-packed series opener." —School Library Journal"A strong debut...The authors conjure a world teeming with intriguing characters and unusual powers—the abilities to turn liquid into alcohol or conjure spectral backup singers are among those represented, a welcome deviance from more typical power sets...The book never loses its sense of wonder and excitement. Worthy of the comics it takes inspiration from."—Publishers Weekly"A lively action story that lifts itself from similar fare with a plot that packs in surprises, romance, and a creative array of “misshapen” powers. Great for readers who enjoy plenty of bam! and pow! in their adventures." —Booklist"The Misshapes is a fun book with a lot of heart and some truly interesting characters...perfect for fans of The Tick and other humorous superhero stories. Some of the powers, such as one boy's ability to conjure back-up singers, kept me chuckling and turning pages to the end. I had a good time making my way through this book and you will too." —Middle Grade Ninja"Awesome... we can never get enough strong characters like the Katniss Everdeens or Tris Priors in fiction. Perhaps the next to follow in their footsteps is Sarah Robertson."—Laura Donovan, Hello Giggles

There are spelling errors. There is even a place where they write about one of the students passing out papers and then a paragraph later the other students wonder why he wasn't at school that day. My son is a 6th grader and we are always trying to find books that he will like that are neither too childish nor too adult-themed. These books are right on the verge and I decided to let him read them. The first one was pretty good. I can't even get through this one.
