Book Review:
Lauren Roberts' ''Powerless'' is a thrilling and addictive entry into the YA fantasy romance genre that has taken BookTok by storm. The world-building is engaging, presenting a clear divide between the powerless masses and the superpowered Elite that fuels both social commentary and personal conflict. The heart of the story is the electric enemies-to-lovers dynamic between Paedyn and Kai. Their banter is sharp, their chemistry is palpable, and the tension—both romantic and life-threatening—is consistently high. While fans of popular tropes like ''touch her and you die'' and forced proximity will find much to love, the book also delivers on action and plot twists. The pacing is brisk, making it a quick and enjoyable read. If you're looking for a fun, fast-paced fantasy with a heavy dose of romance and rivalry, ''Powerless'' is a perfect choice.
