What a great idea: Empaths who feel everything others feel. They empathize too much. It sounds like a book I'd love...but not. The dialogue, oh so much dialogue. I'm not asking for Stephen King-like 7-page descriptors of a dress but come on, give us something.

I need Caleb's words to sound a little more like a teen in 2019:

“I guess. I don’t know, the whole thing is kinda blurry.” I swallow as I think about the
white-hot anger that pounced on me like a wild animal. “Tyler was trying to get a rise out of me,
I think, and I was just getting really upset, I guess, and, I don’t know, it was like—like I couldn’t
control it. And then he started teasing Moses and I just . . . I went into, like, complete Hulk
mode. And I hit him.”

This is the kind of book I'd give a go and hope it improved before long.
