Characters Reading: Michelle Jones (Spider-Man: Homecoming)

It's not hard to spot Michelle Jones, she's the only one reading a book during gym class. And the book she's reading is Of Human Bondage by W. Somerset Maughm. I guess to make Michelle stand out, she was shown either reading, drawing, saying something quirky or trying her best not to be a part of the crowd. She wasn't anti-social but she didn't seem too motivated to hang out with others. She's an interesting character but she's also a little weird which is something you don't see too often for female characters.

Even though I enjoyed watching Spider-Man: Homecoming I still feel like it took a lot inspiration from Miles Morales' Spider-Man stories. It just didn't feel like a Peter Parker story instead it felt like Marvel Studios went of out their way to make an Ultimate Spider-Man movie but without Miles Morales as Spider-Man.
