Into the Pennyverse: Secrets and Spies (Dr. Strangebeard, by Penny Reid)

Explorer's Log: A perfect memory is a double-edged sword. Sure, it would be great to never forget a face or happy occasion, but imagine being haunted by every embarrassing and painful moment in vivid detail. This is Roscoe's burden. He remembers every single moment of the past and sometimes that makes it hard to see what's right in front of his face--like the fact his beautiful former bestie Simone who's suddenly back in town is hiding a pretty big secret that puts Roscoe directly in her sights. Can he finally forget their painful past or will he cling to the bad memory forever?

Holding Out for a Hero: The (Not So) Great American Movie (More Than You Dreamed, by Kathleen Gilles Seidel)

Explorer’s Log: Since we failed to pick a romance about Hollywood, we go deep on our own Hollywood crushes before diving into Kathleen Gilles Sedell’s More Than You Dreamed. We discuss the (lack of) plot and our own confusion with the characters, and are then forced to take a long and uncomfortable walk down Racism Hallway. Afterwards, we put our hero to the test, and things do not look good.
