One of the first books I read this year was The Romantics by Leah Konen. I really enjoyed it, so I'm looking forward to her next book, Like Love. It sounds really interesting. I can't wait to read it!
Expected publication: January 9th 2018

Seventeen-year-old Mabel Shepley loves working at Past Perfect, a sleek, high-tech store in San Francisco, where she helps customers view their memories—or mems—through lens recordings in the privacy of a state-of-the-art VR booth.
Mabel hasn’t recorded her own mems since the Very Bad Event of the previous year, but the customers are cool and it pays well. Mabel’s life is easy-breezy until Charlie is hired for the summer. Charlie and Mabel bond over the course of their shared shifts, and soon their innocent flirtation develops into something more serious. But after Mabel catches Charlie checking out his mems one evening—and looking morose as a result—her curiosity gets the best of her. Snooping on Charlie by peering into his virtual reality mems leads Mabel down a rabbit hole of misunderstandings that threaten to destroy a love that’s just maybe real.
In a world where past hurts and heartbreaks are always accessible, can Mabel Shepley trust her heart enough to find real love in the present?
