For fans of Spider-Man, this is an excellent addition to their library, middle school classrooms can definitely add this to the classroom library as well to encourage even reluctant readers to give it a try.

Preeti has written and incredibly fun and charming version of Spider-man here! I truly loved reading this adventure. The Peter / Spider-man balance was great. I think the character was handled extremely well and this book served as a neat story for fans both new and old.

Social Dilemma is a phenomenal first installment to this new trilogy!

The way Preeti adapted Peter’s character to this story is brilliant because it hits all the points of spidery we know and love while also grounding it in the modern-day struggles of a teenager who has day-to-day life to manage.

The quip about Peter starting a go fund me for Spidey was especially hilarious. I also love the agency Preeti gave MJ in how their relationship develops and grows.

Can’t wait for book two.

Thanks to NetGalley & Marvel Press for the early copy in exchange for an honest review.

This story follows Peter Parker as he navigates his life as a kid in school while also dealing with his growing feelings for next door neighbor Mary Jane Watson. Oh, he's also navigating a strange mystery going back decades and Sandman appears to be in the center of it all...

I really enjoyed this story--it's fast-paced with a really interesting mystery and fleshed-out characters. I liked seeing MJ in particular have a character and a life outside of Peter. Sandman was a fun antagonist and I liked seeing his chapters. Of course, I enjoyed the Daily Bugle sections and liked that even the staff wasn't a fan of JJJ's hatred of Spider-Man, it put a nice spin on it rather than everyone just accepting it.

Highly recommend for any young Spider-Fan!
