Gwenda Bond pens a YA novel dealing with Lois Lane’s teenage years with Lois Lane: Fallout.
In the 40s, Lois Lane was a snappy reporter who stood her own in the mans world.
In the 90s, pant suits.
She tackles the very topical problem of bullying, but theres more at play than schoolyard taunts.
They target specific students, and it soon becomes clear to Lois that their bullying is more than verbal.
Theres more at stake here.
The topic of bullying has been in the news frequently in recent years.
I read a lot of YA, so Ive seen the trend.
The writing style made this an easy read.
Easy to blast through chapters, wondering what was next and when Lois might have another chat with SmallvilleGuy.
But its an engaging story that should catch the interest of readers hesitant to pick up a comic book.
