A great Book

This book was about a girl selena who didnt realize she had super powers when she visited her cousin jada

Not as good as previous books in the series.

Twelve-year-old Selena hates her cousin Jada, even though the girls only met once, when they were both twelve. When her widowed mother announces that she is sending to Selena to spend a month with Jada and her parents, she is angry and hurt. Selena's friends try to tell her that six years changes a person - but she arrives to find Jada as mean as ever. Jada does everything she can to make Selena miserable. But when Selena finds out the real reason for her cousin's cruelty, all she wants to do is run and hide. Jada is toughening Selena up for her destiny as "Shadow Girl," a superhero. Selena doesn't want to be a hero, though - just a normal person. But can she escape fate? This was a disappointing book from the Nightmare Room series. The story just wasn't very interesting. If you're a fan of the series, you still may want to read the book - but I wouldn't reccomend it to someone starting out on the books in this series.
