From the cover:

"It's not easy being a Remarkable in the Unremarkable world. Some things are cool - like getting a pet hellhound for your twelfth birthday. Others, not so much - like not being trusted to learn magic because you might use it to take revenge on an annoying neighbor.

All Nic Blake wants is to be a powerful Manifestor like her dad. But before she has a chance to convince him to teach her the gift, a series of shocking revelations and terrifying events launch Nic and two friends on a hunt for a powerful magic tool she's never heard of...to save her father from imprisonment for a crime she refuses to believe he committed."

Ooooh baby, first middle grade from Angie Thomas! I bought this shortly after it came out, and I'm FINALLY getting around to reading it, after way too long of a delay. SO GOOD. I loved the way the action kicked off, and while it seemed like a gargantuan task that Nic, J.D., and Alex were taking on, I thought information was revealed bit by bit in the perfect places. There was so much tension and sense of urgency, but also enough hope that it never got overwhelming or felt impossible. Also, really enjoyed the way small details from early on came back later, and I all around love, love, LOVE J.D. Such a sweet kid and amazing friend. This book flew by for me, and I loved every minute of it.

Second book when?!
