Seanan McGuire's Middlegame
I’d actually never read this before, because McGuire can be hit or miss for me, and I knew this was connected to her Wayward Children books, which I’m not particularly into. But this works fine as a standalone, about a group of creepy alchemists who are experimenting on children, leading to a pair of gifted twins who are separated but keep finding each other again (which gets a little repetitive at a certain point). I liked all the business with the resets a lot, and was invested in the characters, but did think things got a bit muddled toward the end. Apparently a sequel is forthcoming, which I will maybe read? B+.
