There is a fine line between showing the perseverating/obsessional nature of your protagonist or other characters and being repetitive to the point of boring your reader. I am treading the line often, myself, so I empathize with the problem for authors, esp. of YA lit. However. TOO MANY TIMES saying the same thing is, well, BORING. We get it. She feels X about Y. Her powers are Z. She feels Q about them. Move on.
