Callie Littleton has met a man. Finally. He's a little clean-cut, sure. And he is constantly late for things. And her best friends think he's suspiciously muscular for a straight guy. Oh, and he's a little secretive . . .
After all, who wouldn't want to be Powerman's girlfriend? (Or Nelson, to his friends.) He's famous, he's strong, he can fly and leap; he looks just about as good as anyone conceivably can in a silver lycra bodysuit - all her mates totally envy her.
But it's not all fun and games being a superhero's girlfriend. The worry. The inconvenience. The frankly insane levels of competition from other women (hey, it's the city: it's hard enough to meet a normal guy, never mind one that can rescue babies and stuff). And what kind of future can you plan, exactly, with a super-strong man who's going to live to 172?
Oh, and there's the fact that some of the most evil characters on earth might just want to use you to get to him . . .
But when love strikes, surely it can surmount all differences, risks, fundamental laws of physics and spandex being hand-wash only . . . can't it?

Okay, so I do tend to get excited about books more than the average punter ... but personality-wise, I am not normally one to gush. BUT, I loved Resistance Is Futile. I have not read any of Jenny Colgans bestselling romance titles, nor her distinctly different science fiction work, but think shes hit the sweet spot with this bridge between the two genre. And she just has so much fun with it.

Commentaire

Quirky, funny and romantic, and it doesn't even matter if you don't know what fractals are,A riotous cocktail of action, maths geeks, and kissing. I enjoyed every single page. Resistance really is futile,Resistance is Futile is funny, romantic and just the right side of geeky. Set phasers to 'fun'...,It's not very often that I fall in love so completely with book . . . Resistance is Futile is bright, charming, intelligent, funny, moving and beautiful, full of wonderful imagination and expert storytelling. I think Jenny was born to write this book.,A joyous genre mash-up that sweeps you off your feet at warp speed. Just amazing,A brilliant novel full of dark-edged humour about friendship and love and the strange forms they can take...some of them very strange.,A bittersweet love story and a race to the finish that leaves you genuinely uncertain as to how the story will end. Never less than entertaining and wonderfully funny at times,Okay, so I do tend to get excited about books more than the average punter ... but personality-wise, I am not normally one to gush. BUT, I 'loved' Resistance Is Futile. I have not read any of Jenny Colgan's bestselling romance titles, nor her distinctly different science fiction work, but think she's hit the sweet spot with this bridge between the two genre. And she just has so much fun with it.
