The Defectives
"I want to be all right."
"Define 'all right'."
Juniper Johnson's life shattered the moment that her spine did. The teenager had initially planned on attending an elite high school for students with superabilities. Instead, she is shipped off to Effective "Defective" Academy - an institution for children with superabilities and disabilities. With the help of her friends, her kind professor, and her less-than-kind mentor, Juniper learns what it means to be disabled, what it means to be a superhero, and what it means to be human.

This book is so important to me. It's hilarious (I literally laughed out loud at some parts, and was giggling on most pages), and charming, and heartwarming. It takes down every form of ableism - internalised and otherwise - one by one. The writing was occasionally a little clunky, the characters a little tropey, and I wish some could've been filled out more (especially the friends), but I would love for there to be a sequel or a spin-off or something. I need more of this world. If that doesn't work out, I'll take a 'HELLO, I'M: CRIPPLED' badge please.

Check out my book blog for more book reviews and other bookish posts!
I read a review of The Defectives on Rachel’s blog. It sounded so amazing. As you might know, I have a soft spot for superhero stories.
It’s #ownvoices for the character in a wheelchair representation.
__
It’s soooo good! Like seriously. This is a self-published book and it’s not well-known. I’m so grateful to Rachel that she reviewed it on her blog, as I would most probably not have found out about it if it were not for her.
I loved the writing. It’s relatively fast-paced and builds up a lot of momentum. It’s a really fun book to read, and has quite a lot of humour interspersed in it.
Juniper is an amazing main character. After her accident, which results in her having to use a wheelchair, she has to confront her own ableism and realise that her dreams are not over, just because she is disabled. This is a world that values being abled so much, and thus disabilities lead to superheroes being hidden from society. She has to relearn how to use her ability, and finds out who are true friends.
I’d like to mention, Hakim, who can fly. She was one of my favourite characters in this book. She has asthma, and I thought the representation was great. It was amazing to read about a superhero who has asthma. Representation matters! She’s an amazing teacher, and does not only spend her time supporting her students, but also supports Ryder, another teacher, who is Juniper’s mentor.
I loved how friendships and mentorships were centered in this book. There’s also a huge emphasis on found family.
The superpowers are so cool. There are some that are well-known from other superhero stories (e.g. flight, telekinesis), and others that are more unique to this universe (e.g. controlling the emotions of people through song).
Almost all the main characters are disabled in this book. There were a lot of in-depth discussions on disability and ableism, and how different disabilities affect the superpowers that the person had. The book also touched on how disabled people themselves want to define themselves, how abled people think disabled people should describe themselves, and how abled people think that they know what is better for disabled people.
Racism is also touched-upon. The students have to undertake a skin colour test, which determines whether they will be classified as supervillains or superheroes.
Sadly, there is no sequel at the moment. There is however so much potential to make this into a duology or even a series!

I don’t know if my review has done this book justice. It was such a fun book, that described one possibility for how disability is viewed in a world with superabilities. The book focusses on the themes of found family, betrayal of trust, and friendship.

This is probably going to be one of my favourite books of the year. It’s funny, it’s painful, and it opens up the potential for so many gorgeous sequels *hopeful face*.
The Defectives follows a young girl who was involved an accident, and now must learn to use a wheelchair. As she enters into a world that thus far she’s had the privilege of ignoring, she learns a lot more besides. Effective Academy is where the superhero society puts its disabled superpowered kids. It’s behind a big wall so no-one else has to see them, and though most (all?) of the teachers are disabled, the headmistress herself is able-bodied and frequently patronising to both her students and her staff.
So it’s not a utopia. But Juniper isn’t going to let people talk down to her, or ignore her – even if she wants to at times, there’s no way her mentor’s going to let her give up. And as she forms stronger friendships than she’s ever had before, with other superpowered disabled kids and adults, together they push for something better – for the recognition and opportunities that have been denied them. Throughout the novel, Juniper deals with the prejudices which she has regarding disability, and figures out how to deal with it when others express ableism towards her. This is a book for and about disabled people, but there are some important lessons for able-bodied people to take away from it as well.
And it’s a beautiful book! Wonderfully written, with completely great characters. Juniper has to deal with a lot, but the thing that helps her most is something we all need – a support network to help us get through our struggles and to call us out when we’ve done something wrong. I’m a big fan of support network leader, snappy-but-caring father-figure Ryder, and I think you should go and buy a copy so that you can be too. It’s so wonderful to watch Juniper’s friendships blossom until she’s strong enough to both take down giant monsters and befriend villains. When I finished this book, I turned right back to the front and started reading again. Not an exaggeration.
Representation:
It’s own voices, the author uses a wheelchair. MC uses a wheelchair. The only non-disabled characters in it are the villains (and you’ll see why). No love interest for the MC – easy to make an argument for her being a-spec (the place is called Ace City you guys, so I’m definitely there) – but there is a side romance that I think is done really well. Found families. A pig with a wheelchair. Blindness, asthma, autism, anxiety, a girl with no arms, a chubby girl – and that list is just the characters I can remember off the top of my head.

This book was just SO SO SO GOOD. This is where YA needs to be right now. The story was compelling, the characters were so well rounded, and it's overall such amazing representation of people with disabilities, written by someone who has experienced it firsthand. There's some errors scattered around but the author published this herself and she's in college so whatever. Anyways read this please it's so good and beautiful and funny and important

I enjoyed the hell out of this book.
Yes, you notice that it's not been professionally edited, there are some spelling and formatting errors and other small imperfections, but that doesn't take away from the fun of reading it.
There's LOTS of disabled characters, NO ableism, lots of social commentary on disability and ableism. The characters are loveable, surprising and have depth. It's also definitely suitable for children.

A delightful little read with some really beautiful representation and great meditations on some big issues involving disability, ableism, and all their related subsets.
The writing is really rough, though, and most of the characters feel really flimsy. With a bit more time cooking in the writers brain, I think this could have been a really spectacular book. As it stands, though, it feels more like feel-good h/c fic churned out in a couple of nights, roughly grammar checked, then published.
Not a bad read, just one that could have been so much better.

I loved reading this! As a disabled reader it's so refreshing and gratifying to have characters that are believable and well rounded and actually use their wheelchairs correctly.. The story line is great, it's humorous and addresses internalised and systematic ableism and racism without that being the focus of the plot. It is such an interesting concept and I loved Jude's voyage of self discovery and acceptance. Thank you ❤️

A friend recommended this book to me and I can confidently say it’s now one of my favourites. Every single character, no matter how briefly mentioned, has their own charm, and you want to know more. We see disabled teenagers portrayed as normal people, not just a sob story. And the superhero element is fantastic. I just can’t describe how important this book is to me, and I’m excited to finish the sequel.

July 16, 2019I loved the idea of disabled superheroes, but I just couldn't get through the awful writing. I abandoned this book a few chapters in, so I'm not going to rate it

A full 5 of 5 stars for such a heart warming and hilarious story with disabilities, chocolate milk and superheroes.
I first came across this story around the time the Me before You movie was coming out and Tumblr was ablaze with their brand of 'righteous' indignation about the ableism within the story and what they felt about the ending. A post appeared on my dash detailing a story about a girl who ends up disabled in a car accident and has to now go to a new academy for people with superabilities who are also disabled in someway or another, whether that is blindness, asthma or even Autism. This post gave quite a few details and I will include the link here http://booksofkings.tumblr.com/post/1...
and a great extra fact is the author is disabled herself so there is no question as to whether or not she knows what she's writing about.
Now to my thoughts on this story.
I thought this story was one of the top ones I've read this year to be honest. Juniper is a 14 year old girl who had her life planned out. But you know what they say, want to make God laugh. Have a life plan. Her life plan is quickly derailed by a car accident that shatters her spine and puts her in a wheelchair. Due to her previously found superabilities that are now under a Traumatic Block, she is being sent to Effective Academy for people in the same situation as her. Disabled but born with super powers. Each student is assigned a Mentor to have extra sessions with and for someone to help you in any way you need. Juniper is assigned to Ryleigh Ryder a "Certified Cripple" who is ancient and more sarcastic than I am. She has a roommate who can make things invisible but is blind and slowly but surely befriends almost everyone on campus.
Juniper is easily relatable to any reader and the group of characters around her so fun and lovable, even Ryder. Who yes comes off extremely abrasive and brash and kind of a D*ck when you first meet him but as the story progresses he becomes such a lovable character who has some of the best and funniest lines.
The scenery is wonderful, i could really picture Ace City and Effective Academy and I would absolutely love to explore even more of this world if the author ever felt compelled to write more.
I would recommened this to just about anyone, but especially for anyone who has gone through a traumatic experience because I think it would really hit home for them.

Okay, overall I loved this book. It was a fun read and it moved at a fast enough pace that I couldn't stop reading it even though I was exhausted and should have been going to sleep. It made me laugh out loud at several points and I was smiling for most of it. The plot was interesting, being not only about how Juniper reacts to her disability but also trying to find out what was going on with the school. I thought the only thing about no TV was weird (even if you want the students to be kept ignorant there are shows for that) but the end of the book means it all starts to fall into place.
I really liked the worldbuilding, the setting something straight out of a comic book with Ace City and brightly costumed superheroes and then you get this whole other look at disabled superheroes and how they're treated.
I liked the protagonist and her friends. They were allowed to say ignorant things and learn from them and try to make things right, it didn't make them bad people. The narrative managed to show them as in the wrong and they had to try and put it right, but they didn't spent the whole book trying to atone for saying one stupid thing. I wish we had gotten to know some of the other people outside of Skylar, Ryder, Hakim and Juniper though.
On the other hand, there were things I found not as good. The writing was quite simplistic, things were laid out directly in the text so you didn't really have to think too much. It worked for me, especially sleep deprived, but it might annoy other people. The villains were extremely one dimensional. They were the bad people and no other good parts were allowed. Juniper's biological family had rejected her, no exceptions, while I would have killed for one of her siblings rebelling and coming to see her. Maybe with the sibling having to deal with their own prejudice. Juniper's parents sound pretty dreadful but having her father show some sort of regret or love for her wouldn't have made him any less of a bad person, it just might have made him a little more 3D. Same with Birdwell.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and the other reviewers are right, we do need more of this kind of representation in books, especially superhero books, but I wish there had been a little bit more to some parts. Four stars!

I came across the author's post about this book and decided that I wanted to give it a go. It sounded awesome and I was floored with just HOW awesome it was! Gone is the healing of the disabled heroine, instead she learns to adapt to her life as a wheelchair user and "defective". In a world were superheros are normal and anyone who is disabled in some way is locked out of sight for their "protection", Juniper finds her whole life changing when an accident shatters her spine. I love how real this book was, how it talked about the struggle of waking up one day and knowing your life will never be the same again. I liked that it didn't paint a pretty picture of being inspirational, of needing to fit a certain criteria to be a good disabled person. I loved the characters, they were 3D and excellent in their own way and the way the words flowed and told the story made it clear that this is the best kind of representation. Positive, clear and told by someone who knows what it's like. Highly highly recommended, if I could give it 10 stars I would! Awesome story!

I'm breaking a rule by writing this review. You see, I was hired by the author to line-edit this book. (Typos you can blame on me!) In fact, it was a rush editing job I completed in one 12-hour+ day. I had no option but to be in a hyper-professional mood when I had only one chance to read each line.
I still stopped on multiple occasions just to laugh out loud.
When your job is freelance line-editing, as opposed to copy-editing, you can't afford to get picky about the books you're handed. Getting to read for a living is fun, but I don't expect treats. Yet here was a truly lovely project for me.
The characters are a heartwarming range of misfits, all with their own thriving personalities and character arcs. The world is peppered with beautiful hints to its nostalgic time setting while simultaneously maintaining the allure of a place not quite our own. The daily troubles and triumphs comprising the plot are all-too-human. In short, you will be taken for an emotional ride in a wheelchair.
Oh, and I haven't yet drank chocolate milk since without thinking of the dear young hero.

This book was positively fantastic! I picked it up and could not put it down until I had finished it. The concept is incredible and unlike anything I've read lately, and thankfully it's executed incredibly well too. You can catch hints that somethings not quite right throughout the whole book, even before you start to realize what it is.
Where this book really shines, however, is the characters. They seem to leap out of they page and grab you. Each one seems real and three dimensional which gives the impression of a whole world behind the main characters. The main characters themselves are so full of personality. One of the things I like best about this book is that their powers aren't based on or around their disabilities or vice versa, both are just part of their personalities which, along with the great writing, helps the characters seem so realistically human.
This was a great book and I will definitely read it again.

I liked the premise, the story, and the characters. Disabled superheroes is an awesome idea, and the plot in this novel was good. The characters were relatable, and had a lot of depth to them. The execution of these ideas and concepts was what was missing for me. The writing felt choppy, and there were several times repetition was used in what I felt was a tedious way. The writing often felt like a barrier to my understanding and engagement in the story. Though this is a wonderful story, and the concept and characters are amazing, I feel like this book could definitely have benefited from a traditional editing and publishing process. A good professional editor could have taken this book from okay to amazing.

Overall I liked the book, the characters were wonderful and wonderfully diverse and the story was good, but the writing still felt a little clumsy at times.
4 stars for the story, 4 stars for characters, 2-3 for the writing, 1 for the formatting (I bought the physical copy and reading in A4 without pagenumbers and linebrakes on each line is hella annoying)

There's so many faults, it's simplistic, to much telling and not enough showing, pacing... but I don't care, I love this book.
For context I read this while waiting for my "how disabled are you" review and it made me so happy... I love it.

Oh, this book was so refreshing! It was so nice to read about people being disabled and owning it. The headmistress made me so angry with some of the bs she was spewing, and it made me so happy that Juniper got angry too, because while we don't have the same disability, the backhanded compliments are the same!
The plot was fun, the characters were good, but the novel felt...simplistic? I'm not sure if that's the right way to describe it, but it felt like the novel was aimed towards younger/mid-teens. That's not a bad thing, but just a point.

December 18, 2018I really loved the premise of this book, but it really could have used editing. There were mechanics of the universe that were only introduced at the end of the book, were poorly explained and made no sense. I had no idea when the book took place until the name of the president was dropped, also at the end. The social commentary didn't do much for me either, because it was so over the top. To me, the problem for marginalized groups is a lot that the prejudices are so insidious. In this book every prejudiced person might has well been wearing a beer hat with a blinking neon sign reading "douchebag." I longed for more grey areas, because what really hurts about rejection for being different is how people who claim they love you tell you that you're not good enough in the same breath.
I adore this book for what it represents, and for the concept, and the fact that it's a self-published book that is globally available, and probably never would be if market forces, because of prejudice, were to decide. But the drawback of self publishing is that this book was released before it was ready, and that is a shame. I hope the author keeps growing, and writing, because they obviously have a lot to contribute.
