I got this softcover at Barnes and Noble. It's a new manga series in which some happy young orphans discover that their home isn't what they thought it was...
While the art-style didn't wow me, the story had a bright-yet-brittle tone that I liked, as the brilliant-but-naive protagonists accidentally discover some horrifying truths about their situation, and then devote their efforts on finding a way out. But it's going to be a delicate chess game between them and those who confine them!
[There's a TV Tropes page on the series, with some entertaining tidbits. And the anime adaptation is very good.]
