Carry Me Down by M.J. Hyland

2.0

I'm always up for a tale of a kid who has (or imagines he has) magic powers. In this case, the ability to tell when someone is lying. But this book was a creepy downer. It becomes increasingly clear the kid's got some serious issues which make him dangerous. Due to the family dynamics, it's clear he's not going to get the help he needs and his "power" isn't going to save him from himself.
