I like this superhero!
The Audiobook is Superhero Syndrome (Solstice Survivors, Book 1) by Carryn Larrinaga, narrated by Ruby Hankey, and it’s an urban fantasy.

Tess McBray was dying. The solstice syndrome had no cure, and she resigned herself to an early grave. But just when she gave up on survival, all her symptoms mysteriously disappeared.
All but one symptom, anyway. Something is wrong with Tess’ hands. They absorb any material they touch, and her skin turns to wood, steel, or concrete. It doesn’t take this comic book obsessed 21-year-old long to figure out what’s going on: Somehow, she’s developed super powers. And she’s not the only one; across the country, people are coming forward and sharing their gifts with the world. In her own city, where the police are battling a human trafficking operation, a masked vigilante called The Fox is saving lives and stopping criminals.
Tess doesn’t know where she fits into this new, super-powered world. But when people around her start disappearing, she can’t just sit on the sidelines. Teaming up with The Fox to create the world’s first superhero duo might be the only way to rid her city of evil and save the people she loves most.
And here’s one of my favorite things! The Author told us who she would cast if Superhero Syndrome was made into a movie.
- Tess: Kathryn Newton was born to play Tess. After watching her in Supernatural and Pokémon Detective Pikachu, I know she could carry Tess’s snark with style! https://www.imdb.com/media/rm3069006592/nm1105980
- Bethany: Emma Roberts would be a perfect Bethany. Much as I love when she plays a bitch, like in Scream Queens, I’d love to see her play against type and bring out more of her chic, sweet, compelling energy to the role of Bethany and make the audience want to fight for her as hard as Tess does. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0731075/mediaviewer/rm2579984384
- Angie: I’d love to see Camila Mendez play Angie. She brought a real fierceness to the role of Veronica Lodge on Riverdale, and Angie is the fierce geeky girl we all need in our lives. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm6161516/mediaviewer/rm3761321472
- The Fox: Nicholas Hoult would be my immediate first choice. He’s no stranger to playing a superhero after the X-Men: First Class movies, and he’d be able to brood and smolder through the Fox’s (somewhat silly) mask. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0396558/mediaviewer/rm3837265920

About the Author: Carryn Larrinaga
Caryn Larrinaga is an award-winning mystery, horror, and urban fantasy writer. Her debut novel, Donn’s Hill, was awarded the League of Utah Writers 2017 Silver Quill in the adult novel category and was a 2017 Dragon Award finalist.
Watching scary movies through split fingers terrified Caryn as a child, and those nightmares inspire her to write now. Her 90-year-old house has a colorful history, and the creaking walls and narrow hallways send her running (never walking) up the stairs. Exploring her fears through writing makes Caryn feel a little less foolish for wanting a buddy to accompany her into the tool shed.
Caryn lives near Salt Lake City, Utah, with her husband and their clowder of cats.
Caryn is an active member of the League of Utah Writers and the Utah Chapter of the Horror Writers Association.
