| Teen Titans Book 2 |
Garfield Logan has spent his entire life being overlooked. Even in a small town like Eden, Georgia, the 17-year-old with green streaks in his hair can’t find a way to stand out–and the clock is ticking. Senior year is almost over. If Gar doesn’t find a way to impress the Chosen Ones–the social elite at Bull Creek High School–he will never know what it’s like to matter. Gar’s best friends, Stella and Tank, don’t understand why he cares what other people think. They miss their funny, pizza-loving, video game-obsessed best friend.
Then Gar accepts a wild dare out of the blue. It impresses the Chosen Ones and his social status soars. But other things are changing, too. Gar grows six inches overnight. His voice drops and, suddenly, he’s stronger and faster. He’s finally getting everything he wanted, but his newfound popularity comes at a price. Gar has to work harder to impress his new friends. The dares keep getting bigger and the stakes keep getting higher.
When Gar realizes the extent of his physical changes, he has to dig deep and face the truth about himself–and the people who truly matter–before his life spirals out of control.

My Review: 4/5 Stars
A fun graphic novel that follows Beast Boy's origin story. Gar Logan is just a teenager trying to figure out how to be popular for once and why he can't seem to get taller or bigger. As Gar tries to find himself and his place, he throws caution to the wind and stops taking supplements his parents gave him and ends up taking a wild dare that changes his status. Suddenly, Gar is popular and his body seems to be changing in more ways than one. Beast Boy is still that fun, funny teenager with the affinity of getting along with animals and as his powers emerge, he learns a lot more. But not all his questions are answered in this story. There is still a lot more Beast Boy needs to learn in order to discover what his new powers mean.
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
