The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken is what I'm currently reading. Grad school ruined reading for me and all I can manage to read these days are young adult.... This is my first book in over a year since reading both of the Avatar Kioshi books back in 2021. It's a distopian story based in modern-ish USA. Kids start developing psychic abilities and the government puts them into internment camps. I'm not done with it yet but it's okay. Author can be a little heavy-handed but it's interesting enough for me to read for a couples hours straight and be about 150 pages in. -TW for more... Unfortunate things. Sorry for vague-ness. Spoiler tags are inconsistent from my experience, especially on Jerboa. If you're curious you can DM me or Google it. I'll be as vague as you want.

I need to go back to re-read The Edge Chronicles by Paul Stewart and Chris Riddell. Honestly, I just think it would make a really cool campaign setting for a TTRPG.
