Once upon a time, Aveda Jupiter (aka Annie Chang) was demon-infested San Francisco’s most beloved superheroine, a beacon of hope and strength and really awesome outfits. But all that changed the day she agreed to share the spotlight with her best friend and former assistant Evie Tanaka—who’s now a badass, fire-wielding superheroine in her own right. They were supposed to be a dynamic duo, but more and more, Aveda finds herself shoved into the sidekick role. Where, it must be said, she is not at all comfortable.
It doesn’t help that Aveda’s finally being forced to deal with fallout from her diva behavior—and the fact that she’s been a less than stellar friend to Evie. Or that Scott Cameron—the man Aveda’s loved for nearly a decade—is suddenly giving her the cold shoulder after what seemed to be some promising steps toward friendship. Or that the city has been demon-free for three months in the wake of Evie and Aveda’s apocalypse-preventing battle against the evil forces of the Otherworld, leaving Aveda without the one thing she craves most in life: a mission.
All of this is causing Aveda’s burning sense of heroic purpose—the thing that’s guided her all these years—to falter.
In short, Aveda Jupiter is having an identity crisis.
When Evie gets engaged and drafts Aveda as her maid-of-honor, Aveda finally sees a chance to reclaim her sense of self and sets out on a single-minded mission to make sure Evie has the most epic wedding ever. But when a mysterious, unseen supernatural evil rises up and starts attacking brides-to-be, Aveda must summon both her superheroine and best friend mojo to take down the enemy and make sure Evie’s wedding goes off without a hitch—or see both her city and her most important friendship destroyed forever.

This is a good sequel to the first book. Parts of it just didn't work as well for me. Other parts did work well.

En Heroine Worship ahora tenemos como protagonista a Aveda Jupiter. Y me moría por leer por el dramón que nos dios en Heroine Complex entre ella y Scott, ese tipo de romances son mis favoritos, los que al parecer están destinado a vivir miserablemente. No voy a negar que eso era lo que quería de este libro, sentirme como porquería y llorar.
Aunque no conseguí eso, Sarah Kuhn si me hizo identificarme de nuevo con Aveda, la chica que nunca encaja y que siempre siente que sobra, al leer primer libro, no voy a negar que lloré mares porque DAMN, ERA YO EN AVEDA. Siempre intentando caer bien, pero fallando miserablemente.
No voy a negar que me decepcionó un poco que resolvieran sus problemas como adultos maduros.

Lost interest. Attempting to clear out my 2021 in-progress books before year's end. Might try again later.
I LOVE the covers for this series. Perfect representation of the story and characters found within. Great use of graphics. It is colorful and eye-catching as well.
After reading and LOVING book one in this series, I was super excited to get my hands on this book. Alas, I am disappointed to say that this one just isn't working for me and I am tapping out at 50%.
I found this one just incredibly boring and slow, and I couldn't stand Aveda Jupiter AT ALL. She came across way too narcissistic and abrasive, and since she is the narrator of the story, it made it almost a painful experience to read.
That said, I will most likely still give book three a go, and I hope it will be more like book one.
