Book Description

Blaze is tired of spending her life on the sidelines.

All she wants is for Mark the Soccer Stud to notice her. Not as Josh’s weird sister who drives a turd-brown minivan. And not as that nerdy girl who draws comics.

What she gets is her very own arch-nemesis.

Name: Mark Deninger, aka Mark the Shark
Occupation: Soccer star and all-around lady killer
Relationship Status: Serial dater
Group Affiliation: No loyalty
Known Superpowers: Anti-girlfriend force field, breaking hearts

Mark may have humiliated Blaze supervillian-style, but what he doesn’t know is how geek girls always get revenge.

Editorial Reviews

Review

“First-time novelist Crompton handily establishes Blaze as a diehard comics fan who’s not entirely comfortable in her own skin; her funny-crass interactions with her friends and her younger brother make for entertaining reading . . .the novel forces readers to reconsider the way they treat their peers, especially girls, over their sexual behavior, real or imagined. –Publishers Weekly

Crompton explores popular territory bullying, finding oneself, and overcoming mistakes and her title will help fill the dire need for books about girls whose interests transcend gender stereotypes. –Booklist

High-schooler Blaze is self-depricating, hilarious, and geeky in the coolest way possible. Blaze (Or Love In The Time Of Supervillains) is one of the most relatable anti-love stories we’ve come across in a while. Plus, the comic book drawings inside are awesome! –Seventeen magazine s online Book Club
