Description
This funny and heartwarming sequel to Ungifted, which has become a word-of-mouth hit, cleverly sends up our ideas about intelligence, heroism, and popularity.
Donovan Curtis has never been what anyone would call “gifted.” But his genius friend Noah Youkilis is actually supergifted, with one of the highest IQs around. After years at the Academy for Scholastic Distinction, all Noah dreams of is the opportunity to fail if he wants to. And he’s landed in the perfect place to do it—Donovan’s school.
Almost immediately, Noah finds himself on the wrong side of cheerleading captain Megan Mercury and alpha jock Hash “Hashtag” Taggart. Sticking up for Noah lands Donovan in the middle of a huge feud with Hashtag. He’s told to stay away from the sports star—or else.
That should be the end of it, but when a freak incident suddenly makes Donovan a hero, he can’t tell anyone about it since Hashtag is involved. So Noah steps in and becomes “Superkid.” Now he’s gone from nerd to titan at school. And it may have gone more than a little bit to his head.

5By Kk2367I love the book and everything in it. You can really feel for Donovan and the other characters. Every time Brad gets on his nerves or every time Donovan gets a competing to “super kid” being a only child with a a lot of cousins I was alway compared so I can directly relateIt’s OK.
3By Huehuehue🏘It’s a great book. But then it gets to a point where a) I can predict whats going to happen and b) when I think about what’s going to happen, it’s like nails on a chalkboard. It has a good idea, but it was not executed in the best way possible.
