Thank you to Scholastic for this book in exchange for an honest review

Synopsis:

Diana Prince has been living quietly among mortals in the era of excess: the 1980s.

Though she’s come into her full powers, she maintains a low profile, curating ancient artifacts at the Smithsonian and performing heroic acts incognito. But now Diana will have to step directly into the spotlight and muster all her wisdom, strength, and courage to battle villains Max Lord and The Cheetah and save humankind from a world of its own making, proving she is a hero for our time, for all time, for everyone

Review:

Alright, I was super excited to see the movie but after finishing this book I am desperate for this movie to come out! This book was fantastic!!!

So while Diana is amazing and kicks butt all the fricken time. She is now up against Max Lord, a new villain on the scene but our leading lady faces something more than that, Diana gets herself a friend. I promise you that there is more in this book than Diana and her new friend but to me this is something that needs to be talked about. Why do heroes need to go through this alone? And let’s e realistic, girls together can dominate anything and take down anything in their way!

Real talk for a minute, even superheroes need friends. So the fact that Diana has a new friend and in a pivotal moment in her life is just fantastic. Like I get it that it would be hard because she would see her friends die because she doesn’t, but you miss them going through a heard time and pulling them out, you miss them getting married, their children and everything that comes with life. I wholly believe that Diana isolating herself means that she misses out on so much that life has to over.

Again, while plot of this book is amazing, the friendship and the character development tromped everything else!
