(4) YA When lightning strikes four former friends the night before their SATs, each becomes "everything [he or] she had always secretly wanted and yet been so afraid of"; the suddenly-superpowered group reunites in an all-night adventure. In alternating "then" and "now" sections, the protagonists' fears--and the gradually revealed reasons for their estrangement--ring true, even if their motivations are sometimes made overly explicit.
