Thank you to NetGalley and MG Wilson for the ebook of Ninja Girls in Power in exchange for an honest review.
This is the second book in the series, and although I didn't read the first one, I didn't feel like I was missing a lot of information. The basics of the first book were given so there was context for what was going on here.
Moira, Mindy, and Marci are a trio of teenage sisters who have recently found that they come from a line of ninja and are now training to be ninja themselves. Their mother is deceased, and their father is missing, presumed dead, and in his will he left control of his million dollar business to 15 year old Moira, so she has become the focus of paparazzi, and it's hard to be ninja while under such scrutiny.
It doesn't stop Moira from making a new friend, David, who happens to be deaf and is being bullied at school. She takes it upon herself to start standing up for him, but it doesn't always go the way she would like.
Mindy, the oldest sister, is trying to pass her driving test and is having issues with her Physics teacher, who she thinks has it in for her. Marci, the youngest, is a tech wizard, and is always trying to be a part of the team.
All of the characters are likeable, and there are several storylines that coincide by the end of the book. There is a lot of talk about being ninja and ninja tools, but it's really about family and standing up for what's right.
All in all, a great YA novel if you like family bonds, supporting your friends, standing up for what you believe in, books with ninja, or are looking for something with a non-hearing character. This was a great, quick read.
