The Darkness Outside Us, Eliot Schrefer, 2021 YA novel. A friend whose tastes sometimes overlap with mine loved this, but I really did not, alas. Authors are free to write whatever they want, but if a book is going to press my "it couldn't possibly work that way" or "why would anyone ever make that plan" buttons constantly, that better pay off somehow in some kind of moment or insight that justifies all the nonsense.
