Ngl, this reads like police propaganda masquerading as a work of literature, and I'm not here for it. One can only read so many pages of uncritical embrace of abuse of power before questions arise about authorial intent. I really hope Klune is just setting up the MC for a hard reality check in the next books. Otherwise, well... Yikes.
That issue aside, I really just didn’t vibe with this book.

Excerpt: https://www.pastemagazine.com/article...
Some people are extraordinary. Some are just extra.
Nick Bell? Not extraordinary. But being the most popular fanfiction writer in the Extraordinaries fandom is a superpower, right?
After a chance encounter with Shadow Star, Nova City’s mightiest hero (and Nick’s biggest crush), Nick sets out to make himself extraordinary. And he’ll do it with or without the reluctant help of Seth Gray, Nick’s best friend (and maybe the love of his life).

1.5 starsedit: it's been brought to my attention that TJ Klune has released a statement on these issues http://www.tjklunebooks.com/new-blog/...
It's not my place to accept or not accept his apology, as I am not a part of the marginalized groups most affected by police brutality.
All I will say, is that apology or not, the book is still harmful. And perhaps if even the author himself recognizes the harm he did . . . that's a pretty solid sign that we're not just overreacting when we say it's harmful?----
All quotes are from an advance copy and may differ in final publication.
I received this book from netgalley in exchange for an honest review, and this hasn’t affected my opinions in any wayThis book
would be getting four stars, because it had so many things I loved, but unfortunately it also had some really harmful shit so instead it’s getting a very deserved 1.5 stars!! Yay, disappointment!
I am so incredibly disappointed in this book, and I really wish I could rate it highly and recommend it, but I cannot in good conscience do that because wow wtf. Anyways, i do feel the need to acknowledge the good in this book still, because it
was there, and you know this is supposed to be an honest review, so uh:
The Reasons It’s Not Getting One Star: - the writing was super fun! It was so easy to read and i literally read it in one sitting because i genuinely was enjoying myself a lot when i didn’t feel like throwing it across the room
- the characters were great. I really loved Nick even though he was completely clueless, and Seth was so sweet, and also the side sapphic couple whose names i’ve already forgotten were amazing and just hjgfjghkjghf i loved this cast of characters and i wish!! I could fangirl about them! without feeling vaguely sick!
- this book was soooo funny. Like i spent the whole time laughing aloud and it was a fun time
- the rep! I can’t speak on the adhd rep, but i do believe it was ownvoices. and i really liked the gay rep, and how natural it felt
The Huge Glaring Issue: The way this book glorifies the police force is deeply harmful. I don’t feel that any book can involve the police force this much without critiquing it, without being an inherently harmful book. (If you still, even after everything that’s happened recently, don’t think that the police force is incredibly fucked up, I don’t know what to tell you. Go do some damn research.)
This feels like nothing less than propaganda, and intentional or not that is harmful.The police play into this book hugely. The main character’s dad is a cop, and the police are always getting involved in stuff with the superheroes. And although the police aren’t always shown as
right, especially about the superheroes,
they are always shown as a well-meaning institution for good.I was pretty skeptical from the beginning when I realized his dad was a cop, but i was still somewhat hopeful it would redeem itself and call them out later (spoiler alert: it didn’t). And then we find out that his dad
punched a witness. His dad
used unnecessary force on someone while doing his job as a cop, and it was shown as okay because he was ‘a good person who made a bad decision’. I barely even have the words for how fucked up that is, but I’m sure as hell going to try because i can’t just let that go.
A cop who punches someone because they said something that made him mad is dangerous. A cop who punches someone because they said something that made him mad has anger issues. A cop who has anger issues is going to get people killed if you let him stay on the force. A cop who has anger issues needs to lose his job asap. The portrayal of him as a good person who made a mistake once just doesn’t work when you think about the context of his position of power. This man needs to be fired.
(edit: yes he was demoted. however he was absolutely not fired, and the fact remains that (1) he should have been fired, and (2) not only was he not fired, it was portrayed as if firing him would have been Bad and the fact that his colleagues vouched for him was Good)In case you don’t believe me that he was glorified, here’s a quote (it’s taken from an arc and may not be final, but i still feel it holds a lot of weight) about the cops who stood up for his dad after he punched someone on the job:
These were the people who had fought for Aaron Bell when before had become after, and his dad had lashed out against someone he shouldn’t have. They were the ones that had argued with Internal Affairs and the higher-ups, telling them in no uncertain terms that Detective Bell shouldn’t be dismissed, that he was an unmatched asset to the Nova City Police Department, and to lose him would mean losing someone who bled blue.
These men are shown as heroes, when in reality they are enablers. This isn’t okay.Meanwhile Nick’s reaction to his dad mentioning what happened is this:
”But that doesn’t mean you still can’t be a good person, right? Just because you did something wrong doesn’t mean that’s who you are. And even if you keep doing the wrong thing, you can still be saved.”
I generally agree with the sentiment, but in the context of his dad being a cop who has abused his powers, something about that really doesn’t sit right with me.
There were also a few other lines about the police that I raised my eyebrows at (again these are taken from an arc and may not be final, but either way are deeply not okay), such as:
Police officers are woefully underpaid,” Nick agreed. “Especially for the line of work they’re in. It’s dangerous on a daily basis, and they should be compensated.”
No. Just no. Defund the police. They don’t need more money.
For this second one I feel the context is very important. This happens when the character is being arrested by cops who
know his dad and are being very gentle with him.
He knows he’s safe, he knows the worst trouble he’s going to get in is grounded.
”Record this,” Nick bellowed at Jazz and Gibby. “Record this so i can use this in a lawsuit I’m going to file against my dad and the city for police brutality! I will have my vengeance!”
Yes you read that right, that was a joke against police brutality (made by the privileged white male character).
This was also the only reference to any real problems with the police force in the entire book. And it was a joke.In short: fuck this book and all its propoganda.

**4.5-stars rounded up**The Extraordinaries is non-stop quick wit and good humor from beloved author, T.J. Klune. This story also features Queer Superheroes and relatable fandom vibes.
Need I say more?
It's set in the fictional landscape of Nova City, where superheroes are very real.
They're called Extraordinaries and they swoop in to save the day, as you would expect any superhero to do.
Also, as you would expect, there are people who are obsessed with them and they've developed their own unique brand of celebrity.
Fangirls and Fanboys alike swoon over the Extraordinaries unbelievable powers, abilities and wardrobes.
Nick Bell is a regular teen in Nova City, who also happens to be the most popular fanfiction writer in the Extraordinaries fandom.
His biggest crush, Shadow Star, is currently one of the active Extraordinaries within the city. Frequently battling his arch nemesis, Pyro Storm, the two often leave destruction in their wake.
Nick is invested in every minute of it.
The story follows Nick and his absolutely phenomenal friend group, as he sets his sights on starting a relationship with Shadow Star, even if that means he'll need to become Extraordinary in order to do so.
Y'all, the writing of this story is incredibly strong.
It's so rapid fire and intelligent.
The dialogue will definitely keep you on your toes. The main character, Nick, suffers from fairly severe ADHD, and in a way, the narrative reflects that.
I'm not sure if I am explaining that correctly, but it seemed as if the narrative accurately portrayed how Nick would have been experiencing, or reacting, to what was going on around him.
It felt extremely real, even though a lot of the storyline was actually rooted in unreality.
Overall, I was really, really in awe of how this story unfolded. There were so many tender moments throughout, even though it is frequently laugh out loud hilarious.
I loved all of the characters, the nod to classic superhero story arcs, as well as the serious real world issues that were addressed; it was all quite impressive.
I definitely intend to carry on with this series. The characters were very easy relate to; so much so, you'll want to be part of their friend group.
Thank you so much to the publisher, Tor Teen, for providing me a copy of this to read and review. I was so impressed with T.J. Klune. I cannot wait to pick up more of their work!
I feel like this book is currently so underrated.
I need more people to read this and join in my excitement as I wait for the second book to drop!!

OMG this book was hilarious. I've always loved T.J. Klune's sence of humor, and this one made me laugh out loud in several scenes! It was fantastic. I think at one point I started crying out of laughter.
Besides that, the book itself is amazing and I loved it. I don't know how to start describing it: it's like a urban fantasy with superheroes called "Extraordinaries" and the main character is obsessed with them, I mean, he writes fanfiction about them (in which he's the main character and one -very famous- Extraordinary is in love with him lol.) It also has ADHD rep and obviously LGBT rep.
I really liked the plot, it has some twists and turns, and though I guessed them all, the ride was enjoyable! And I think the author does a good job foreshadowing everything. What I loved the most about this books are the characters, especially Seth, who is Nick's best friend.
The main character is Nick Bell. He's the one with ADHD and also the one that is obsessed with the Extraordinaries. He's endearing and never shuts up. He also has the best lines. Then we have Seth, who is a cinnamon roll that wears bow ties to school and is so obviously in love with Nick. Then we have Gibby and Jazz, who are simply the BEST.
Oh, and Nick's dad! He was the real MVP in this book. I love that we get to know him, that he's not an absent parent and that we get to see his relationship with Nick. It was one of the best aspects of the book: the father and son relationship.
The only thing I didn't really like in this book is that the characters (especially Nick) sometimes felt really immature for their age. There were scenes that made me roll my eyes and others that were a little cringy, but that's all.
So... yes, I recommend this book. It's lighthearted and soft and fun, but it also deals with some dark and serious stuff. I can't wait to read the second installement! Too bad I have to wait more than ONE YEAR for it. UGH.
Also, I will post a full review on my Youtube Channel when it's time for the April Wrap Up.

TJ Klune, you are absolutely everything. Everybody has that inner battle when it comes to deciding their favourite author. I’ve thought long and hard about it, and for me, there is only really one answer. I’ve read phenomenal books by the likes of Madeline Miller, but I truly appreciate Klune’s work so much.
He has given the queer community gay superheroes, gay werewolves, gay princes, gay ghosts, and so many gorgeous novels! The only thing I need from him now is gay vampires! These stories are so important for representation and he seriously doesn’t get the credit he deserves. TJ Klune is the reason that a lot of us get to read the books we always wanted to when we were young. I feel very sentimental about his writing, not only because of the variety of stories he has on offer but also because he is just so effortless.
There is something so gentle and breezy about the way Klune writes. The writing towards the end of this book reminded me of why I loved Wolfsong so much. Klune’s storytelling is on another level. The calming prose is somehow packed with so much emotion. Wolfsong was a masterclass on how to pull at a reader's heartstrings. The Extraordinaries shows his versatility and will make you howl with laughter. The essence of all his writing is about making his readers feel something. I truly feel like I can turn to Klune no matter what mood I am in, and he will have a story waiting for me.
The Extraordinaries was everything I hoped it would be. It was hilarious and I found myself laughing at some of the chapters for far too long. If it wasn’t Nick, it was the god-awful situations Nick had got himself into. TJ Klune is able to describe things so effortlessly. As a fantasy reader, it can sometimes be hard to picture characters and worlds clearly, but I’ve never had that problem with Klune’s books. I could see all of the hilarious moments in Nicks's house so clearly, including the blossoming romance. The characters were all so lively and unique, yet the relationships were what truly made this novel work. The element of found family within the friendship group, the amount of love and protection Nick’s father wrapped around him, and the dark cloud of grief for those that were gone. Klune must know something about the human experience that everyone else does not because he’s the only one who consistently makes me feel seen, no matter the genre he is writing.
Sometimes I just need to escape to a book and find joy. I appreciate this kind of story, the ones that are there to lift you up and make you laugh. There is so much to love about this book. I am reminded of my adoration of Wiccan and Hulking as a teen. As someone who has loved superheroes and comic books my entire life, having a story like this makes me feel more affirmed than I could ever express in a review.
Honestly, I wish this world was real. Let me have my pick of one of those pills. The yellow one is mine, no questions asked.

4.5 stars, rounded up.
TJ Klune's newest book,
The Extraordinaries , is a book that truly lives up to its name!
We all have crushes on celebrities when we’re teenagers. It just so happens that Nick Bell worships Shadow Star, the bravest Extraordinary in Nick’s home of Nova City. Shadow Star has vowed to fight the evil in the city, and he is the subject of all of Nick’s popular fanfiction (in which he may or may not have feelings for a Nick-like character).
After a chance encounter with his hero, Nick realizes he needs to become an Extraordinary too in order to have a chance at being noticed. That’s a tall order for anyone, much less a teenager with ADHD and anxiety and an overprotective police officer father.
Nick will try to enlist the help of his best friends—Seth (with whom he may be head over heels in love), Gibby, and Jazz—none of whom want to indulge this fantasy. But Nick is determined that his hero will notice him, even if it may jeopardize his friendships, his relationship with his dad, or even his life.
"Love is such a weapon in the face of darkness, if you only know how to wield it."
This book was utterly squee-inducing. Nick and Seth are utterly adorable, Jazz and Gibby are a hysterical “power lesbian” couple, and Nick’s relationship with his dad definitely choked me up more than a time or two. There’s definitely humor here, too. The scene when Nick finally meets his crush made me laugh out loud, as did some of the things his father said.
But there was so much more to love about this book as well, such as the friendships, and the story of a young man trying so hard to make sense of a world that often doesn’t make sense.
It’s amazing that before this year I had never heard of TJ Klune and now he’s written what will unarguably be two of my favorite books of the year,
The House in the Cerulean Sea and this one. I want more of these characters!!

While this superhero story was "good", I was expecting the same level of excitement that I usually feel from TJ's books, so I was left feeling slightly disappointed.
For one thing, the pacing of the story felt a bit slow, even though it was approximately the same length as many of TJ's other books. However, when I had to put it down, my fingers didn't twitch until I absolutely *had* to pick it up again, taking me a full week to read.
With only Nick's single POV, there were tons of internal thoughts and a bit less dialogue than I would've liked. And with the fact that Seth, Nick's best friend and probable love interest, always seemed to be mysteriously missing and MIA, I found it difficult to connect with him, feeling as if everything I knew about Seth, I'd been *told* and not truly shown.
I think that the main thing that I felt lacking this time around was TJ's usual non-stop, over-the-top, wacky sense of humor. Yes, the humor did make appearances, but we're talking about an awkward teen with ADHD, as written by TJ Klune here, so I was expecting him to really *go there*. Instead, the humor felt much more bridled and subdued.
So again, while the story was "good", it never really ventured into *great* territory for me and I'd rate it at around 3.5 stars.
** NOTE: After "The End" and the book's final credits, there is a short "Stung" chapter that you absolutely NEED to read. It actually helped with my overall enjoyment for the story and got me much more excited for the next book in the series.

TJ Klune can write the most heartfelt and fun stories, and
The Extraordinaries was just that. This book left such a big smile on my face and I can’t wait to read more in this world.
When I heard about this book, my excitement level was at an all time high. First, I love TJ Klune’s writing, and second, it was compared to
Fangirl which is a book I love. On top of that, superheroes!
Nick Bell is an ordinary teenager with ADHD who lives with his dad. Nick loves the Extraordinaries and has a popular fan-fic based on his favorite superhero, Shadow Star. Nick has a thing for Shadow Star, and when he meets him in real life… OMG. I laughed so hard. There are some twists and turns (some I guessed, a few I had ass backwards) and so many fun moments.
This story had humor, action, and had some romance but also big focuses on friendship and family. Nick and Seth’s relationship/friendship was the best thing ever, but I also loved their other friends and Nick’s relationship with his dad.
I enjoyed this one lots. It was even, dare I say,
extraordinary. I’m not sure if the next book in this series will be more about Nick, Seth, and the gang or a new cast of characters but either way, I’m excited to read more!

DNF at 28%: I hate to say this because I LOVED (like, favorite of the year, loved) the last TJ Klune book I read, but I did not enjoy what I read of this one at all. I found the main character’s POV to be kind of insufferable and that made it extremely hard for me to connect to the story or care at all about what was happening. While this one didn’t necessarily work for me personally, I do think that if you enjoy superheroes, you could probably still really like this one. But between me not caring a ton about superheroes and not connecting to the main character, this was very much just not the TJ Klune book for me. Womp :(

My fav, my precious, my sweet cinnamon roll.
Humor: ★★★★★
Characters: ★★★★★
Plot: ★★★★
Enjoyment: all the freaking stars, I've already read this twice in 2020 and I don't have time to reread, ever
So before I get into this at all, I just have to say that since reading this ARC at the end of April, I've already reread it twice before its release date. As someone who has ZERO time to reread anything, that's a serious compliment as to how this book made me feel. Now to the review!Nick Bell is a serious fanboy. In Nova City, where people with superpowers called Extraordinaries are the focus of the town's attention for both good and bad, Nick's got it bad—for one of the superheros, that is.
Nick spends most of his high school days
writing fanfiction starring himself paired with Shadow Star, Nova City's most prominent hero. He's forced his best friend and overall cutie pie-maybe-love of his life, Seth, to beta read it for him for every angsty, sappy chapter.
Yep, the kid's got it bad.
But when Nick meets Shadow Star in an alley one night for the chance encounter of his dreams, Nick realizes that he'll do anything to get to Shadow Star's level. It's time to make himself Extraordinary.
My thoughts: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
That's it, that is my one thought for this book. I loved it, it was perfect, it was campy, it was everything that's amazing about angsty teen drama and romance, and all of the good things about superhero tropes with none of the horrible misogyny, prevalent heterosexual posturing, and stupid CGI action sequences to cover up for lack of plot.
This novel sings with gay goodness, HUMOR for days, and an amazing friend group that I would give my left pinkie to be a part of.
Other great things about this novel: the
deft handling of ADHD, the great relationship between Nick and his cop dad, Nick's two girl friends who are the perfect lesbian goals while also being A+ comedic relief, Nick and Seth and their puppy love UGH, and
once more for the people in the back, the HUMOR.Do yourself a favor, because it's 2020 and the world is trash—read this book. It will make you happy AND make you laugh. Thank you to TOR Teen for an ARC of this title in exchange for an honest review.

*3.5 stars*
The Extraordinaries was another good story from the always reliable T.J. Klune, though not without its flaws.
First of all, I need to talk about the
stellar narration from Michael Lesley. Michael Lesley is a frequent narrator of T.J. Klune's books, and he always gives it his all. His narrating style is so joyful and full of energy that it's always a pleasure to listen to. Well done, Michael.
However, even with the great narrating job, it still took me two weeks to get through the story. T.J. likes writing lengthy stories, but this one
felt even longer than most. I think it's because it moved a little slowly in the beginning, but it was fairly hard to get through at times.
I recognized the main character in the story from a number of other T.J. Klune stories. The sort of clueless, hapless MC who multiple people are secretly pining over felt very familiar to me. However, I have to say, I'm a sucker for it every time. I was wooed by these characters.
Where the story really shone was in the dialogue and snappy banter between all of the main and side characters. T.J. always knows how to capture the funny when he wants to, and I read a lot of the story with a smile on my face. Give me a fun dialogue with lots of personality, and you
have me.
Even knowing that this book was written before all of the publicized incidences of police brutality and that T.J. has subsequently addressed this issue in an essay,
the book felt a lot like a romanticized police-adulation story. It was a little hard to read it from my current lens. However, I'm curious how the police aspect of the story will be shaped moving forwards in the series.
I'm not a superhero person, so the story really didn't grab me from that perspective, so it was a bit hard to fully immerse myself in the plot. I found myself wanting to speed things up so I could get to the resolution of the story. Also, the cluelessness and
lack of communication got to me a bit as the story went on.
I was thrilled by the ADHD rep, especially as a parent of two non-neurotypical kids, and I hope T.J. continues to make his characters not only queer but also unique is other ways. I really appreciate it, and I know his readers of all ages do too.
Overall, I enjoyed The Extraordinaries, and I think the narration of the audiobook made it even better. There were aspects that didn't gel with me, but I think I'm going to continue on in the series and see where it will take me. I think The Extraordinaries will please a lot of T.J. Klune fans as it
feels very much like one of his stories. Fingers crossed for book two.

why, oh why has it taken me this long to read a T J Klune book? I have spent 16 years of my life without knowing the
pure joy his books can bring, and suddenly within one week I have read two of his books and cannot wait to pick up
everything else by T J Klune.
The Extraordinaries somehow made me love a book about superheroes- which in itself is a masterful achievement. I typically find superhero books take themselves too seriously and become eye roll inducing, but this one was really self aware and instead
leaned into the melodramatic and cheesiness, making it a really fun time.
This book was so funny, and Nick Bell was the perfect narrator for the story. Nick is a gay teen with ADHD, and a propensity for saying whatever is on his mind. Once I was acclimatised with the writing style and campiness of the story, I couldn't take the smile off my face. All the characters were so
loveable and endearing to me (although I can appreciate not everyone will connect with them, as they are, inevitably, flawed). I loved the diversity in this story, representing everything from neurodiversities to sexualities (many of which are own voices as well!)
The plot was definitely the weaker element for me. Don't go in to this book expecting a fast paced, high action superhero book because you will be disappointed.
The Extraordinaries is told from the perspective of an ordinary teen with an obsession with an Extraordinary named Shadow Star. Therefore, we only hear about most of the action from news reports rather than right in the thick of it. Also, I found this book quite
predictable. I guessed a good portion of what was going to happen pretty early on, but it didn't detract from my experience too much, since getting there was so enjoyable.
It was all slightly
ridiculous and over the top, so I would recommend going into it with those expectations otherwise you will probably be annoyed at the characters for their absolute cluelessness. You also may or may not feel some second hand embarrassment for these characters, but again, it was very self aware.
Something I think would be remiss to not mention is the very prevalent focus on the police. I have linked this review which goes into depth on how it is handled, or rather not handled. I don't believe it was intended to be harmful, but wasn't addressed with the amount of care that it ought to have been particularly in today's climate. I read an ARC, so there is a possibility that these things may be changed in the final copy, but I just wanted to mention it.
Finally,
that epilogue. I admit, I kind of called it but it still managed to shock me. I cannot wait to read the next book in the series
ahhhhhhh!Thank you to Tor Teen for this ARCRelease Date: 5 March 2020 (Pushed back to 14 July 2020)

I feel like there are two parts I need to touch on in this review, the story and the audiobook narration.
THE STORY/PLOT: From the very beginning this story is different. Unique in its idea and execution with many wonderfully endearing characters. The super hero concept pulled me in and I loved the Metropolis vibe. But I struggled at the beginning. It actually took me a while to get used to the voice of the story.
THE WRITING: There were so many awesome dialogues between Nick and his father. I laughed so much thanks to the author’s brilliant writing. He perfectly captured the many different tones and nuances between annoyed teen and exasperated dad. Nick had me constantly laughing out loud with his overly dramatic attitude. And the endearing but also typical teenage way he communicated with his dad had me in stitches. It’s hard to adequately describe how well these dialogues were written. Just spot on!!!
THE CHARACTERS: It’s clear by now that this father and son duo were my favorite characters of this entire novel. They had this wonderful and deep connection. Although Nick’s entire entourage was wonderful diverse, distinctive and absolutely endearing. I thought the characters were really well done.
THE NARRATION: As with the story, I had to get used to the narration as well. I can’t exactly put my finger on what exactly bothered me at the beginning, but there was something that didn’t sync with me immediately. Luckily, I got over what ever it was.
Also kudos to the author for really going all out with his different voices. At first I thought Nick spoke way too fast at times, until I realized it only happened when Nick was feeling hyper. As soon as I realized that, I paid closer attention and recognized how well the narrator matched Nick’s emotions, his ups and down. So yes, it was a well performed audiobook.
last thoughts Even though this book was not one I immediately fell in love with, but the further I got into the story, the more I loved the uniqueness of it all and most of all the excellent writing.
I’m just amazed by how versatile the author is. From his Green Creek series, to The House in the Cerulean Sea and now The Extraordinaries. I honestly can’t wait to read his next book. He is turning into a must read author. someone who pens stories that are never boring and always different.
