I thought the “taking it in turns to cry” bit was funny so took a pic… but then I remembered what happens to the Reader family later…

The second book in the series starts in April and finishes in May of the same year.

It’s said that the children started showing their powers when they were 11/12, and it hasn’t been long Lisa is still 12.

If they’re eleven or twelve that would put them in year six or seven, stretched between the two separate English academic school years. Which it might be because there are the Teller brothers, Alex and Jacob, who aren’t twins and have at least an age gap of 9 months so are unlikely to be in the same school year.

If Lisa is 12 she’s in secondary school, year 7. And has done her SATs.

I’m going to say Mia is 11, in year 6 as she hasn’t done her SATs yet:

In this book we see that Dax & Gideon are in the same class as Lisa so maybe they’re in year 7, secondary school, too. Or maybe classes are mixed based on intelligence more than age which is uncommon but not impossible. I can’t remember if Mia was in their class too.

Spook wants to be so special but really he can’t do anything physically, like shapeshift or telekinesis, and that might be an insecurity of his. He’s found out he’s powerless against Dax Jones, and now Dax isn’t hiding it 🏳️

After everyone in this book [Running the Risk] being tired all the time, and Dax (and Lisa) running his mind trying to figure out why, i say 🙌 SleepForDax 📣
