Mostly Epic Brain Adventures #1

When cell phones are banned at school, freshman Loo has to manage high school without his usual support.

No scrolling. No games, videos, or music. No easy escape.

Instead, Loo is left with his racing thoughts, a brand-new school, and a brain that’s all over the place as he’s trying to navigate classes, socializing, and unexpected challenges.

With humor, heart, and a few brain-teasing puzzles along the way, Powered Off invites readers to explore what happens when you unplug… and it turns out, powering off might be the start of something epic.

Loo’s Reset Book

Freshman Year

Loo’s Reset Book: Freshman Year is the annotated companion to Powered Off and Volume 1 of Mostly Epic Puzzles.

When Loo’s phone is banned at school, his mom hands him a puzzle book and says, “This might help you cope.” This is that book.

Designed as an in-story reset tool, this collection of word searches, logic puzzles, brain teasers, and reflection prompts mirrors the strategies woven throughout Loo’s freshman year. Whether used alongside the novel or on its own, Loo’s Reset Book offers structured challenge, screen-free focus, and space to recharge.
