YADarkest Minds series.
Revolution rages in a dystopian near-future where child survivors of a virus gained extrasensory powers and were institutionalized. Multiple resistance movements converge on the search for both cure and cause of the powers (hint: the government is corrupt), with flawed, empathetic mind-manipulator Ruby at their center. Bracken skillfully juggles realistically messy politics, tense action, and fraught relationships in this gripping series conclusion.
