Hero High: Heartbreak Rebellion (Hero High Collections Book 2) by Mina Chara – Review by Angela Hayes

Heartbreak Rebellion (Hero High, #4)Heartbreak Rebellion by Mina Chara
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

Heartbreak Rebellion is a collection of stories in the Hero High series by Mina Chara. It contains ‘Depression’ Book Four, ‘Acceptance’ Book Five, and ‘Hero’ Book Six.
This is a fantastic way to follow this superb series- three books in one. But I really recommend reading the first three books before embarking on this collection- either by getting each title individually, or by reading ‘Figure in the Flames’ which contains the first three books. The series has a continuing storyline, and even though Ms. Chara does do a nice job of catching us up on what has transpired previously- nothing beats reading the action for yourself.
This is a young adult fantasy adventure series set in a ‘superhero’ high school/TV show- it’s full of action, danger, superheros, villains, pressures of fame, responsibility, angst, and a little romance. The story/series is set in a near future world, Icon City, and follows Friday Fitzsimmons on quite an incredible adventure.
I thought this set of books were a little darker and edgier than the previous three, making for an even more intriguing read.
So, if you love young adult fantasy, with plenty of action, adventure, and superheroes- then this is definitely a story/series you won’t want to miss.

Thank you, Mina Chara!

Hero High:: Heartbreak Rebellion (Hero High Collections Book 2) by Mina Chara. I’m a sucker for box sets it’s just a great way to one be introduced to new authors and two have the books back to back. This series has completely pulled me in from the very beginning. The characters are complex and relatable, the storyline smooth and engaging. The author does a wonderful job of writing even the smallest of details out enough that the story comes alive for the readers. Each book takes you on an adventure you won’t be forgetting anytime soon. It’s well written and paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking anything. The characters are complex and pull you into their story world and you’ll have fun getting lost in the pages for a while. Four stars and highly recommended.

Heartbreak Rebellion (Hero High, #4)Heartbreak Rebellion by Mina Chara
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Hero High is one of those series that pulls you in and the story flies by and is over before you know it! I have read each of the books and the storyline just keeps building…and I feel like there is still parts of the story that haven’t been told.

This book picks up with Friday waking up from her coma. She is thrust right back into the show with a new love interest…all while still sorting through everything that happened to her and her unresolved feelings for Ashley. Now, however, Friday is being forced into situations that make her uncomfortable, and even sick to her stomach, under the guise of increased popularity and becoming a Hero. When she is confronted with the truth of what is going on behind the scenes…and is forced to question what is real and what is made up for ratings…everything she thought she knew is not as it seems.

I enjoyed this book because, as the story progressed, Friday grew up and starting becoming more aware of conflicting way she feels about being manipulated. She still has bouts of immaturity, but she definitely grew up a lot in this book. She was forced to make tough decisions that I don’t think she would have been capable of making before this book. I hope there is more to her story because I have enjoyed watching her story evolve and if feels like it isn’t over yet!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hero High: Heartbreak Rebellion by Mina Chara is the second book in the Hero High Collections. This is a brilliant collection of books that will grab your attention and simply not let go. This is books 4-6 in the series so I would definitely recommend reading the others ones first.
I think the author has done an amazing job of creating such a strong and interesting series. Each of the books are great in their own right, resulting in an overall amazing series. The characters are all so well written and you really do engage with them. It is so easy to picture them all as if you are right their alongside them.
Each of the stories in these books kept me interested for different reasons. They are clearly part of the same series but all have a slightly different feel about them. It helped to keep them separate in my mind while also keeping them cohesive and flowing well. This is a brilliant series and if you are a fan of this genre I would high recommend them!

By Mina Chara
5 out of 5 stars

I loved reading Hero High: Heartbreak Rebellion (Hero High Collections Book 2) by Mina Chara. It is a collection of stories that pulled me in, and I was hooked. Friday Fitzsimmons is back, and I just love reading about her. In these stories, she shows her emotional side as well as her strong side. Secrets are uncovered and a school needs to be saved. What will happen? Read this book to find out. This is a story that has action and danger. I was on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. The author does a wonderful job of making both the storyline and the characters come alive on the pages. Many additional characters are in the story. Some of them are helpful and then there are those with an evil agenda. Will they be stopped? Friday is a character that I have grown to love as the read this series and I can’t help but want her to be happy. She is also a character that I could root for her to succeed in all that she does. Don’t miss out on a collection of stories that you will not want to put down until you have read the final page. I highly recommend both these stories and the entire series.

This is books 4 – 6 of this series.  I have enjoyed this series from the beginning.  It is great to see that they become a collection.  They are fast paced stories that are full of romance and action.  Friday’s stories continue in each book of this collection.  She makes such a great strong character and just makes the story for me.  I had no problem connecting to the characters as they bring the story to life.  They made the story easy to read and kept it engaging.  I highly suggest reading the first three books to help build the enrichment of this series.  I highly recommend reading this collection to find out what happens to Friday next.

Figure in the Flames(Hero High #1-3)by Mina Chara
5 out of 5 stars

Book 1Denial: The main character Friday seems to follow her own drum and is finding out that strange things are happening around her. The secondary characters and the main character are interesting, and I enjoyed the interactions and their quirks.

Friday’s father finds out she has powers, so he sends her to the most famous school for powered people in the world, Hero High. Now she has to live at the Super Structure, and let cameras follow her round every day. She never knew how many expectations they had for powered people. Does she fit in? Dos she wants to be a superhero. Can she live with the cameras following her daily?

Book 2 Anger: Friday Fitzsimmons is in her second year of hero high. She is living at the superstructure its risky and invasive, especially when trying to figure out where two new real super villains come from. I can’t let the cameras see what I’m doing, because I’m pretty sure they’re in on it, and people are getting hurt.

Will Friday figure out the truth before its to late? Will she be able to trust any of her peers? Are they out to get her? Will she make it past her second year of hero high?

Book 3 Bargaining: This is Friday Fitzsimmons story and is set in the near future world of Icon City, a place filled with powered one-percenters, She finally joined the gold team, the producers even like her now, but it feels like she has abandoned everything that makes a good hero, in order to be a good hero.
Everything is going wrong for her she still doesn’t know who to trust and people aren’t what they seem. Every move she makes to uncover the truth is defeated by forces she cannot even see. But she will not give up.
Will Friday find out the truth? Will she learn who she can trust?

You will need to read this great story to find out…..

Figure in the Flames (Hero High, #1-3)Figure in the Flames by Mina Chara
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Figure In The Flames is a box set of books containing the first three stories from Mina Chara’s Hero High collection.
Friday Fitzsimmons discovers she has a superpower , they are rare but not unheard of in the futuristic world in which these books are set. All superheroes are sent to train at the elite ‘Hero High’ which is not just a school, but also a reality TV show. Friday would much rather let others take the limelight, but when she earns the title of ‘gifted’ it soon shifts to her.
As with all High Schools Friday experiences highs and lows. But, what she doesn’t expect is to become an integral part in the fight against enemies and in the battle to save the city. Friendships are tested, mysteries are solved and battles are fought.
The books in this collection are all short, fast paced reads, aimed at the YA audience. They are brilliant if you enjoy action packed drama and have the imagination to help bring it all to life.
I love the character of Friday, she really isn’t your average superhero and she has internal struggles to conquer as well as facing the bad guys too.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hero High: Figure In The Flames by Mina Chara is a fantastic fantasy story all wrapped in one book. I loved the series and really enjoyed the adventure I got to take with Friday and her superhero journey. There is so much to love about the series, there is something to be said about a “dystopian” world where you watch super heroes on tv and then get to see the behind the scenes. I loved all the twists and turns that the story took and the wonderful character development. This is a great bundle to get through on a long weekend or if you have the time to just sit and devour it in one sitting.

Figure in the Flames (Hero High, #1-3)Figure in the Flames by Mina Chara
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first series I have read from this author and now I’m hooked. I absolutely love fantasy books but this author exceeded all my expectations. This set has three books to this amazing series. The first book is called Denial, then Anger, and lastly Bargaining. Once I started this series I could not stop. You will fall in love with all of the characters. I hope there will be more books in the future.

Denial

Friday is like your normal seventeen year old. She had friends and family but when her dad finds out she has a super power he ships her to a special school. Friday is shipped to the number one hero school, Hero High. She is now in a more structured environment that she doesn’t like. Friday also has to be filmed everyday but at least she has her best friend by her side. She is surprised when she finds out what it takes to be a superhero. Friday doesn’t have the time because this man that is on fire is making trouble and Friday needs to find out why. Will Friday fit into her new school or will she be the outcast?

Anger

Friday is getting used to her new school for superheroes. She is still wondering what the guy that was on fire was all about. Friday is now being followed everyday and she now met a new super villain. She wants to know where they came from but it is very dangerous. Friday is starting to believe that production is behind some of this but why? Will Friday be able to trust anyone or are they all lying to her?

Bargaining

Friday is now part of the gold team but everything else is falling apart. She still feels like she is being watched and her friendship with Jake is breaking. Friday is now popular and even the film crew is helping her out. She doesn’t want to let Captain Fantastic down either. Friday is getting closer to figuring out who the new Dr. Dangerous is but when she finds out will it crush her dreams? Will Friday fight for what she believes in or will she have to give in?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was interesting from start to finish. It leads you down unexpected paths as you are seen through Friday’s lens. She’s in a reality show involving superheroes at a high-powered high school. In a fellowship where stardom is all around them as they come into their own as the champions they are.
Conquerors are all around them rescuing others around the clock. Captain Fantastic leads the famous heroes. Friday and Jake are both childhood friends who are recruited to be next in line to combat evil forces to save their world from destruction. Returning from the abyss, Doctor Dangerous and the Figure in the Flames, Captain Fantastic faces the ultimate betrayal.
Up against major forces including her childhood friends and believing in Doctor Dangerous, Friday must make a dire choice that could catapult her into stardom and rise above as the hero she is.
This beautiful world building trilogy keeps you on your toes and to a place you’d never imagined. These characters are lovable and worth the read as we go on an awesome adventure with them through every book. I’ve loved these books from the author. Fantastic reads!

Bargaining (Hero High Book 3) by Mina Chara.

I can honestly say I have loved following this series from the start. We are following Fridays story. Friday is a very relatable and realistic character. She’s not perfect and she knows it and doesn’t try to be anything else which I love about her. Mina Chara has done another great job keeping the readers attention and is an amazing author. I can’t wait for the next instalment of this series. Highly recommended.

Hero High. Figure In The Flames. By Mina Chara. We follow Fridays story arriving at Icon City. A place for the magically gifted, which is also broadcast to millions via a reality television series. This was a great series to read, I really enjoyed following Friday along her way, she’s a very relatable character. I would say this series is suitable the early teen/young adult, I will be letting my daughter read it next. Great storyline, brilliant characters and lots of fantasy. Well done.

The Hero High Box Set – Figure in Flames by Mina Chara is a must read for anyone who is into Superheroes. These novels feature an upcoming superhero, Friday Fitzsimmoms. It follows her first months at Hero High which was supposed to be a new beginning for Friday, but quickly it turns into a fight for the school as she and her classmates battle a new super villain. The story involves many twists and turns for Friday as she tries to not only survive high school but begins her journey as a superhero. Mina Chara has authored a really fun adventure and she is definitely someone to follow for future installments in Hero High and Friday’s adventures or perhaps something new.

Figure in the Flames (Hero High, #1-3)Figure in the Flames by Mina Chara
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Hero High: Figure In The Flames by Mina Chara is the first three books in this Young Adult fantasy series.

Denial (Hero High Book 1) is fast paced and a lot happens as we follow along with the students, future heroes and past heroes who also happen to be a television reality show as well. Friday sets out to be a hero but lives in the background, but she unwittingly finds herself in the thick of things as the story unravels.

Anger (Hero High Book w) picks up where the first book left off. Where a lot happens as the students learn more about themselves and what they can do and adjust to life as a hero and being in a television reality show. Friday seems to always find herself in situations not of her making and getting herself out of them, but she is also drawn to finding out just what is going on and who is involved.

Bargaining (Hero High Book 3) carries on from the first two where heroes are the norm and their lives are broadcast on television for all to see. In this book everything comes to head and we see who is who and which side they are on. You need to read these books in order as they flow on from each other and you will miss out on the story and how we get to each book. It is action packed and explosive and completely compelling. Just what makes a true hero?

This is one series that should not be missed.

Figure in the Flames (Hero High, #1-3)Figure in the Flames by Mina Chara
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hero High: Figure In The Flames collects the first three parts of Friday Fitzsimmons’ story, written by Mina Chara. Friday, or “Fitz” as she is sometimes known, is a trainee superhero in a world where superheroes are celebrities, surrounded by cameras at all times. Friday doesn’t particularly want to be famous, and certainly doesn’t want to wear revealing clothes and smile for the camera, but she does want to make a difference and support her family.
The story is told within a framing narrative of an interview where an older Fitz is asked to discuss her origins. This works well, both reassuring the reader that Fitz will be alright in the end and allowing the older Fitz to break up the flow of the story every now and then to provide useful information or interesting commentary.
I particularly like Chara’s vivid descriptions of things. Everything from settings to clothes and food (food!). Chara gives the reader plenty of detail that really allows you to feel like you’re seeing and tasting everything.
For me, this is a five-star book. I would recommend it to fans of teen and YA superhero stories (it has a particularly X-Men feel to it with the special school for superheroes). There’s a good balance of character drama and action, and there are familiar tropes without it being boring or too predictable.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Denial (Hero High book 1) by Mina Chara is a 3.5 star read.
This is the story of Friday Fitzsimmons who went off to hero high when she was 17, she met and spent some time with her hero Captain Fantastic, she doesn’t really have an active power so is trying to figure out how she can become a superhero.
This is my first book by this author and while it wasn’t one of my favourite books I couldn’t put the book down and read it all in one sitting.

Anger (Hero High book 2) by Mina Chara is a 3.5 star read.
Friday Fitzsimmons is still trying to figure her way around Hero High and the camera’s, the new Dr Dangerous is hell bent on finding his place as a villain and making sure Friday is in the middle of his plans. Making new friends along the way Friday is trying to stop her anxiety worries getting in the way of her time at hero high.
There was a little more excitement in this book but it still fell a little flat for me, but when I picked up the book I didn’t put it down until I was finished.

Bargaining by Mina Chara is book 3 in the series and is a 4 star read.
This book finds Friday fighting against everyone, not sure who is on the side of good or bad, her friendship with Jake is suffering and she’s getting closer to Ashley, but everyone has secrets, can Friday save the day without getting hurt?
This was a quick read and I enjoyed catching up with Friday and seeing how her superhero power would stand up against everyone else’s. The ending fell a little flat for me and I’m hoping there’s more to come.

Figure in the Flames (Hero High, #1-3)Figure in the Flames by Mina Chara
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Friday Fitzsimmons is a 17 year old girl going to a new school, but she is no ordinary girl, she has superpowers and she is about to start Hero High in Icon City.

We meet Friday as she is flying to Icon City, so that she can support her family back home. Friday is anxious and shy, but is determined not to let them down. She arrives and is thrown straight into the glamour and all encompassing life that being a student at Hero High entails. There are reporters, photographers and video cameras ready to beam her student life to the world through their own reality TV show.
She and the other students are tested, grouped and placed with a mentor, before finally getting to meet the head teacher and see where they are going to live for the foreseeable future.
As Friday and the other students get used to their new life, as well as the rules, disappointments, advantages and disadvantages that come with it, they develop as people and have experiences they could never have dreamed of before this all started.
We follow Fridays adventures in this trilogy as she gets to grips with her new life, friends, classes and powers, as well as the life that comes with them.

The book starts as an interview with Friday and this style is intermittently dispersed throughout the book, where we learn tidbits that cannot be explained within the storyline. We meet and learn about the characters she comes into contact with and how all these relationships develop. This is done extremely well and keeps you guessing right up until the end.
It is an easy to follow story and flows very well, the “interview” sections do not disrupt this too much and do add to the story.
Various themes are explored throughout the story and deal with the emotional conflicts and turmoil that come along with these themes.It is a complex and engaging story that leaves you wanting more at the end and is a series that I want to finish.

Five Stars

Denial is he first book in the Hero High by Mina Chara. Mina Chara is a new author to me and I think she has a hit on her hands. If you like YA, Fantasy and Action, this is going to be the perfect series for you. The characters and world building are both entertaining and easy to imagine with the detailed descriptions. This is a quick fast paced read that grabbed my attention from the first page and didn’t let go until the last.

Anger is the second book in the Hero High series by Mina Chara. This installment starts where the first book in the series, Denial, ends. I love these short installments that are easy and fast to read. The excitement continues in this book, with Friday continuing her training and learning how to be a SuperHero. This book is fast paced and the characters are well defined. This isn’t my usual genre, but I have really got hooked this this series.

Bargaining is the third book in the Hero High series by Mina Chara. This book really ties up this series. I’m so glad I chose to read this series. I found the character development and world building to be detailed and easily relatable. I found this book to be my favorite of all three. Friday Fitzsimmons Story continues, and it is full of action and adventure as she tries to figure out the good vs. evil in her life. This YA series is addicting and it has some twists and turns that I wasn’t expecting. I highly recommend this book, series, and author.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hero High: FIgure in The Flames by Mina Chara is a collection of three Hero High books; Denial, Anger, and Bargaining. This is a quick, entertaining read. Friday is now a student at Hero High to hone her special abilities. She learns quickly that you cannot trust many and not everyone is concerned about her best interests. This school for heroes is televised and part of reality tv programming. It is difficult for Friday because she has a mind of her own and does not care if she is popular, she just wants to be trained. What will Friday do when she is brought into a plan which can have life altering circumstances? Will Friday make the right decisions?
I really enjoyed reading about Friday. She is a young lady many can relate to. Her life has not been easy, but she just wants to protect her family and reach her goals. She is a fun character. There are other characters which are also students and mentors at school. Each is an interesting character and would be great to read more about them. I look forward to reading more from this emerging author in the future.

This is a nice series that drew me in from the first book! I mean who doesn’t want to be a superhero?! The story really gets better and better as it goes through the books. You will learn to love some characters and dislike others. But for YA this is a delightful group of books that will engage their imagination. I highly recommend it for the person who loves to engage their brain matter and dream of new places.

4 Stars!!!!

I do love me some supernatural books. This is the first time I am reading this author and I really enjoyed this book. The author has such a refreshing style and a unique idea. I like how the re is a balanced amount of drama in the book. I really found some of the things that happen in the book to be quite surprising.

I really felt drawn to Friday and her character. The way that the book highlights that every super power is valuable. I didn’t expect this between her handler Jake and her to turn out the way they do. The book totally had me on the edge of my seat cause I couldn’t put it down and by the end with the twist I was totally hooked. I felt as though I could feel every emotion Friday went through and the struggles she faced. I was just so proud of her by the end of the story. I will definitely be reading more from this author in the future.

Figure in the Flames (Hero High, #1-3)Figure in the Flames by Mina Chara
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This box set was really good and i enjoyed reading it during my long weekend. The books in this box set are part of the Hero High series and the names of the books are Denial, Anger, Bargaining. These books are fantasy and they drop us smack dab into a supernatural world. Friday is our main character and she is pretty awesome. She is supernaturally gifted and she is training at a special university. There is romance, suspense, and alot of action. I really enjoyed this set and i am looking forward to reading more by this author in the future!
Happy Reading!!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Hero High: Figure In The Flames by Mina Chara. This series has captured a bit of my heart, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved this set not because it’s written poorly or anything but because it’s not my first reading type. But this author knows how to capture readers and keep us coming back for more. The characters are complex and relatable while taking you on an incredible journey. There’s definitely times I lost track of book world and real world. I had a hard time putting any of these away to join the real world again. It’s well written and paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking anything. Each book gets better and better. I’m anxious to see where the author takes readers next. Four stars and highly recommended!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This series isnt at all what I expected it to be. This follows Friday an her at Hero High, which is being filmed as a reality show. A bit of futuristic, a bit of mystery, a bit of YA. I was definitely surprised that I enjoyed this series as much as I did! Plenty of fast paced action and laughs! You cannot go wrong reading this book series!!!

Figure in the Flames (Hero High, #1-3)Figure in the Flames by Mina Chara
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a box set that includes three books from the ‘Hero High’ series, Denial, Anger and Bargaining.
The series is centred around, Friday Fitzsimmons who is one of the “One in a Thousand People on Planet Earth who have a Supernatural Power”. Friday is sent to ‘Hero High’, a school for the supernaturally gifted to train. The school is in the glamorous Icon City, a haven for all those with supernatural powers. However Hero High is not just a school for trainee superheroes it is also a reality TV show and one of many on the Hero Channel. As a ‘gifted’ student Friday has to take part in a reality TV show where good fights evil for the city’s soul. However not all the students use their powers for good, like the mysterious masked boy or the man on fire who calls himself The Figure In The Flames. Along with friend Jake, Friday struggles to come to terms with her new situation and her new powers all whilst battling her crippling anxiety. Luckily Friday has Captain Fantastic on her side.
Each book is a short read but packed full of adventure, with a fast paced storyline and each book continues Friday’s adventures at Hero High. I have come to love Friday over the three books and think she is a great lead character as she is very likeable and relatable as a character especially as she battles with acute anxiety. The world building is great and thanks to the authors wonderful descriptions I felt totally immersed in Icon City and Hero High. I thoroughly enjoyed all three books and found that as it was a box set I could just continue with Friday’s story in the next book straight away.

Hero High:
Figure In The Flames
Books 1-3
By Mina Chara
☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆

Book 1
Denial
Welcome to the School for the Power People. Hero High provides all the things the students need. This is a different type of school you are used to. These high school students are told what to wear, as the school provides the clothes. The students are followed around by cameras and are told who they are to date. That being the case, they are paid for this. Good or bad the money is to help out their families. That is all I will tell you! No spoilers!

Book 2
Anger
Hero High is at it again. Follow along as you meet Figure in Flames and Dr. Dangerous. You will join in with new characters as the team and start a new adventure. The main characters stay in the back as they know they are being watched. Come on into the superstructure, just be careful! I refuse to give you any spoilers as I feel you will enjoy the story.

Book 3
Bargaining
This is a Young Adult fantasy story. This book should be read after Denial and Anger. Bargaining picks up where Anger left off. You are in the future built around the fantasy world. By reading the in order, you will become familiar with all of the characters. You will also find growth, as Friday tries to figure out what she really wants. Remembering Friday is also still being watched and is trying to lay low.

Mina Chara has continued to keep the YA’s entertained with this series. All 3 books are fast read, with plenty of excitement. They are a must read, loaded with fantasy and adventure. Included are the superheroes, all while keeping them reading. Big props to Mina Chara for encouraging teens to read. Adults would also enjoy this series as well. I have truly enjoyed this series. I will also be looking for more, to share with my teens.
