Camp by LC Rosen, read by Drew Caiden, published by Penguin NB: Mature content, not suitable for readers under 12. Feelgood LGBTQ romantic comedy from the acclaimed author of Jack of Hearts (And Other Parts). Sixteen-year-old Randy Kapplehoff loves spending the summer at Camp Outland, a camp for queer teens. It's where he met his best friends. It's where he takes to the stage in the big musical. And it's where he fell for Hudson Aaronson-Lim - who's only into straight-acting guys and barely knows not-at-all-straight-acting Randy even exists. This year, though, it's going to be different. Randy has reinvented himself as 'Del' - buff, masculine and on the market. Even if it means giving up show tunes, nail polish and his unicorn bedsheets, he's determined to get Hudson to fall for him. But as he and Hudson grow closer, Randy has to ask himself how much is he willing to change for love? And is it really love anyway, if Hudson doesn't know who he truly is?
