(4) YA Committed by his parents to a video game rehab facility, Jaxon hyper-focuses on earning the points required for release (the program is structured like a game, with point values assigned to "real-world" skills). He gradually faces the reasons he is most comfortable behind a screen. Though female characters are typecast, the evolving relationships among the committed gamers will hold readers' interest.
