horroresque humorous paranormal struggleville superpowers wattys2016

A book much funnier than the title would imply...

Archer Dearden thought he knew himself. Social outcast, unconfessed anger issues, dead parents, an awful excuse for a brother. Those were  the parameters that served as the confines of his world. Well, and also one other-teensy-thing. He had powers. Not like Superman or Spidey-god knows he would never be what you would call responsible-but closer to Magneto or . To put it simply, his powers were not of the 'good guy' variety. He saw himself as a monster, fell right in with what his father told him of the repercussions of exposure. He hid, kept no friends, pushed people away. Until a series of things happened, one of which was named Laci Greene, and the only reason she wasn't as gone as everybody else was the fact that she just wouldn't let him go. 

Now, confronted with conflicting parental identities and a violently shifting self-perspective, what will Archer do when confronted with a danger he just can't face alone?All Rights Reserved

My Misconceptions by ALonelyEcho

As an orphan, Emma Johnson never exactly believed in miracles or magic of any kind. Or even the proclaimed superheroes everyone loved. That all changed the fateful night when she was mugged and attacked. At that point in her life, she had come to the conclusion that she wouldn't amount to much, and as she lied half-conscious on the ground, she couldn't help but think that she deserved this kind of death. She didn't want it, but it seemed appropriate to someone with nothing to call her own. Then in swoops in her own personal superman, saving her and taking her back to his place where she wakes up the next day. She is then surprised to find that everything she thought was fake before, was suddenly coming to life before her eyes. And what's even more shocking is, she's been in the middle of it her whole life. Description credit goes to my friend, dropsofargent, who so kindly wrote the description for me. Thanks Emily, I owe you one :3

Path To Restoration (Fighter's Den, #3) by TheFeveredBookaholic

*Warning: LABELLED MATURE. Due to sexual content and graphic language, this book is recommended for readers 17+ in age* *CANNOT be read without reading prior novels in series* Nate Hunter; aspiring boxer, brother to five younger sisters, and...stripper. Yeah, you read that right. After his twin sister went through an abusive relationship, Nate fought to restore her honour by starting a chain of nightclubs that hire and help victimized women get back on their feet. It didn't take long for the stripper industry to deem him a knight in shining armour that beckoned damsels in distress. The damsel in his life? A fierce yet gentle woman who doesn't want his help and is more warrior than damsel. She's determined to keep Nate at arms length and ignore the ridiculously hot chemistry that fizzles between them. Now it's up to Nate to convince the woman of his dreams that fairytales still exist and that he wants nothing more than to be her prince. After all, he knows a thing to or two about putting up a fight. Delilah Stevens; aspiring author, voluntary loner, and...pregnant. Yeah, you read that right. Life has been unstable for Delilah since her father walked out on her when she was six years old. It shouldn't be a surprise that the father of her unborn child walked out on her too. The already shy and reserved girl retreats further into her shell until she is convinced that the real world is nothing like the books she reads and writes. Or is it? Delilah is forced to rethink everything she's ever known about finding "the one" when she is suddenly face-to-face with a man straight out of a romance novel who wants her - bad - and resisting his kind eyes and killer grin is no walk in the park. The question of the hour is whether or not the determined boxer will be another villain in her story or the hero that finally gives her a happily ever after.

Discovering Shadows (Completed) by Bookworm7216

I have restarted this book. I wanted to make it easier to read and more enjoyable. I hope to make shorter chapters and update frequently. :) In the beginning Sylar has no name. No one cares. She's just another kid to fall into a system because she was an unwanted mess. A child that doesn't talk? Yea, no one care about that either. A shady group home filled with bullies and secrets? Yea, you guessed NO ONE CARES! To find friends in a place like this is unlikely. This place is built to feed off the fears of kids and their lack of parental role models. No one holds on to dreams for long in a place like this. You get placed here and you are as good as forgotten. Except when a couple shows up looking as out of place as an astronaut in a gold mine or a miner in space whichever one you prefer. This couple comes and shakes things up. Good or Bad has yet to be decided...only someone's bound to get hurt, someone's bound to be broken. The only question is will the wounds heal or fester and kill?

Supernatural by thewinnster

"Just because we win the war doesn't mean we don't lose everything in the process." - Joey Magnom --------- Practically everyone dreams of having superpowers. Lift a building, breathe underwater, fly. But at such a cost? Morgan would very happily shove it back to wherever it came from. In a close future, certain children and teenagers suddenly begin to exhibit their own unique superpowers. In order to contain them, keep the secret, and abuse these young adults' power for their own advantage, the government hunted them down and opened camps to train and brainwash these 'supernaturals' in cruel ways. It didn't matter if the child was five or eighteen; they'd take them and give them the same horrible treatment. Morgan was hunted and taken. Rylie was not. Morgan Carter was put in the camps and wasn't able to come out the same way she came in. She became their pet telekinetic/assassin, ready to kill and torture without hesitation and knew how to. She forgot her old life, including her name. Rylie Garner paraded as Light Glider around his city-their own personal superhero-escaping being caught with the help of his friends while trying to find his little supernatural sister, who was taken. But then, their stories began to intertwine. --------- Completed/Being Rewritten

Their Dreams, My Reality (Book 1 in the Mystic Dreams Series) by deansboo

This is something I thought at like one o clock in the morning lol. This book is about a girl name Tessa who attends a school for the supernatural. Most people love their gifts, but Tessa hates hers. Where most people can only dream of having her gift, she would change out In a heartbeat. When danger strikes, it's only her gift that can be used to stop it. They put on shows to use their powers and learn to control them. They even have some fangirl moments. I mean what good is a story without the main character being a fangirl. And we can't forget the romance moments. Hey, I'm vic, I suck at summaries. I've had some positive feedback for people who made it to the story even after my terrible summary, so if you like this kind of thing, read ahead. If you have questions about literally anything, just comment. Have a great day!! Also I do not own the photos I use, and credits to the authors if I use references about books, but the story is original by me. Xoxo ~Vic

The Superior Rebirth: A Hero's Awakening by Future_courge

In an industrial-era world where fate is merciless and heroes are manufactured, Xavier Ivanovich is a boy who was never meant to live. Once a subject of an inhuman experiment, he is saved only by the kindness of a scientist whose compassion is repaid with death. Left behind, Xavier grows up chasing an ideal of heroism he does not yet understand. The Superior Rebirth is a slow-burn epic fantasy that explores sacrifice, identity, and the cost of choosing others over oneself - in a world where even good intentions can lead to ruin. This is not a story about becoming powerful. It is a story about becoming human.

Heroes at Heart by TwylaGrimm

"I've tried telling them I'm only fifteen. That no sane government would force a boy my age to fight crime. 'But Max, you're a superhero! Isn't this what you want?' Actually, no. I just kind of want to get through high school. Then we'll talk about this 'superhero' business." Max Owens is your average high school sophomore. Well, he tries to be, at least. At fifteen, he's got more important things to do than fight the infamous Vinicus Cauldwell. With his single mother having recently lost her job, Max is determined to help his family get back up on its feet. The publicity and pressure that comes with being a superhero would be too much to handle right now. But it's hard to fly under the radar, when you can literally fly. Meanwhile, Vinicus Cauldwell enjoys the power he has as Murkbourne's most feared super-villain. For once, he can sit back and relax without being pestered by the police. That is, until Max arrives. Vinicus isn't happy about having to fight a child, but he can't let Max find out. After all, super-villains can't be "good people"... Can they? We can't all be born heroes. But most of us are Heroes at Heart. (Based on a writing prompt / story request by tumblr user "fallingivy")

Omens (wattys2016) by NicoleLadson

But life has other plans for her as she encounters a boy who will pull her so far into his world...she might not make it out alive. **may contain violence, sexual situations, foul language and other "unpleasant" things...you have been forewarned.
