Ward by wildbow. Not technically a book but it's wonderful if you are into that genre and honestly probably still good if you aren't. Finished worm and while back and would definitely recommend that as well
To give a brief idea it's "what if super powers came from incredible trauma and were designed to be the worst possible power for them specifically" there's a lot more to it like A LOT but that is a general idea.
Worm follows Taylor and her journey after gaining power. It's essentially her struggle to be in control of everything that goes on around her
Ward follows Victoria dallon and her struggle to manage a bunch of traumatized young adults as a hero team while dealing with a severely fucked up family
I read quite a bit of Worm, I think I was near the end, but then took a break, and after that couldn't find where I stopped. I plan to reread it someday.
How's Ward compared to Worm?
Ward is less fighty fighty action and more dealing with trauma and mental illness
