B2B Book Review & Giveaway: Super Born: Seduction of Being by Keith Kornell

So I just finished Super Born last night and let me tell you this is one sexy, awesome book! I absolutely LOVED it! I loved how the book was written too, it's written in the point of view of the two main characters kind of like a journal entry. This is from the back cover of the book:

Batman wouldn't last a day in my world, thought the B.I.B, bitterly feeling
the strain that newly manifested super powers had brought to the life of the 
33 year old "normal" single mother. Gone was her known controllable 
existence;  quietly raising her daughter and making ends meet. Gone were the
simple days of drinking , dancing, and partying with her friends. Being "real"
and being a super hero made for a unique combination. Sometimes it was a real bitch.

Yet through the dangers and the challenges more doors opened than closed. Perhaps
there was a route to a new level of being, perhaps even a new level of romance. The
ponderous weight of questions and possibilities she bore in isolation.

Alone and feeling sorry for herself on her birthday, she walked into O'Malleys Bar
for a drink and started it all...

Now this book was classified as young adult but in my opinion it shouldn't be read by anyone under 18 due to the graphic sexual content. I only say this because my 12 year old daughter often reads from this section of the bookstore (pending my approval of course) and without opening the book and scanning through it you wouldn't know. I also want to say that the content didn't bother me (I found it pretty darn sexy!) but if that isn't your cup of tea, consider this fair warning.
I really liked this book. I wish that it had gone into more detail on the Super Born's powers and how they began and how they felt about it. I think this would make a great series, I know it left me wanting more. This is Keith Kornell's third novel and I hope it's not his last!
