Catwoman: Soulstealer by Sarah J. Maas
5.0

What a great freaking book! Before this year, I hadn't tried reading anything by Sarah J. Maas. She has such a large following, and I've been burned by over hyped books in the past, so I pretty much avoided her work. However, I wanted to read some popular series this year, and I gave her a try.

The ACOTAR series was a fast read, and I liked it just fine.

This was stellar though! SJM really wrote a fantastic Catwoman book. But more than that, she told the story in a dual POV, and it made me crave more. More of the friendships formed here, as well as the potential tragic love story as well.

While I preferred the Batman story a bit more (again, my Batman bias is showing), I could see this (and want this) as a TV series. I want to see more of this Selena and Poison Ivy and Harley, and I want more Batwing!!

I know, I know, DC doesn't do live action well, and I don't want this in live action either. I want this in the animated universe and think it would work so well to that visual. Especially all of the details around all the tech! I want this!

I may even need this.
