Why read it?
1 author picked Soon I Will Be Invincible as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I really connected with evil genius Doctor Impossible and his whacky world of superheroes. In grade and high school, I felt like I was the one who was overlooked, which was often the good days; getting noticed generally meant I was being made fun of and bullied.
