    <body><![CDATA[Reviewed by Karin Librarian for TeensReadToo.com<br/><br/>Avery lives for the darkness. Not for any deviant reason, but because he is less likely to be seen when he is flying around town. You see, Avery isn't like other kids. He has super-strength and can fly.<br/><br/>Since these powers develop...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/63114135">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[What I love about Avery is that he's a realistic teenage boy.  He doesn't always know what to say or what to do.  Quite often he comes off as a complete spaz, awkward and uncool.  OK, so he can fly and he's like super-strong, but he's not your typical too-cool-for-words book boy.  <br/><br/>I've h...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/60473171">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book is really funny and great for geeks. However, the end happens a little too quickly and points out the books major flaw . . . one-dimensionality. We are suppose to root for the team of misfit superheroes, because who doesn't love a team of misfit superheroes. But the villians motives are a ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/72102651">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[For the most part, Dull Boy takes fun tone to the whole superhero idea. Avery loves his powers sometimes- he can fly and he's super strong. But with all that, it's hard to control himself. He wants to become a hero, not just a boy with powers. Hence, him being relegated to a school for dangerous kid...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/65565537">more...</a>]]></body>
