So i read it a long time ago, probably when i was in middle school, so maybe high school level reading material.

It's about a kid who gets under his parents skin, and he might've gotten into trouble, so he ends up getting sent to a boarding school or something.

While he's there, he befriends the outcasts of the school, and come to find out, they all have some sort of special ability.

The main character can read people, one of the guys can start or stop fires, one of the guys can see the future, and i forget the other characters.

But anyways, i'd appreciate it if anyone could help me with the name of this book, i'm asking because i think they recently made a movie out of it.

Are you trolling or being serious?

The kid goes to the school, and its mostly about him trying to learn how to get along with people.

I think towards the end of the book, the school was going to be shut down or something like that, and they all had to do their part in a scheme to try and keep it open.

I wish i could tell you guys more about it, but i probably read this book 10 years ago.


And no its not xmen.

Trying to do some thorough research on this, but not easy. May I ask how old you are and what year did you read it?

Also, is it Twilight by any chance? I have not read these books, but I did Wikipedia the characters and many of the protagonist display the same "special powers" you have listed.

I have read all of the twilight series, it is not a twilight book.

The main character is a boy who has a way of getting under everyones skin, and i think he made some mistakes in school or something, so they send him off to a boarding school.

While he's there, he has a hard time at first making friends, but when he finally does they find out that they all have special powers. One of them can control fire, one of them can see into the future, just a few seconds when he begins, but as he practices he can see better and better. I think there were more characters, but i can't recall any of them.

And i'd say i read this book when i was in middle school, about 8 years ago, maybe more.
