First line: Note to self, Four months ago I lost my foster mom and my memory on the same horrible night.
Why you should read this book: Nothing much is riding on this lightweight meet cute story about two teens with superpowers whose paths cross while they are both looking for help from the same mysterious benefactor, but if you want to see Beast Boy and Raven fall in love, I guess this is it. Playing tourists in Tennessee, Beast Boy manages to romantically pursue the reticent Raven without being obnoxious or disrespectful or creepy or making any one of the million missteps that teenage boys in heat tend to make about emotionally distant goth girls, until they are both kidnapped by evil scientists, which can only facilitate their trauma bonding. With the help of their superpowers, Raven's sister, and Beast Boy's friend, they are able to escape from a facility that is not in way equipped to contain people like them.
Why you shouldn't read this book: Basically zero suspense in regard to where this romantic attraction is heading.
