Re-read an old comfort read of mine today.  “A Fistful of Sky” by Nina Kiriki Hoffman is about Gypsum, a young adult from a magical family in Southern California.  Unlike her siblings, she didn’t gain powers in adolescence and assumes herself normal.  Except one day she does, and it’s an unkind power.  It’s totally a vibes rather than plot #book and Gypsum is such a great character.  It’s about family and how intertwined we are - the good and the bad.  And about settling into ourselves.  Highly rec’d.
