About this listen
Connor Major’s summer break is turning into a nightmare.
His SAT scores bombed, the old man he delivers meals to died, and when he came out to his religious zealot mother, she had him kidnapped and shipped off to a secluded island. His final destination: Nightlight Ministries, a conversion therapy camp that will be his new home until he “changes”.
But Connor’s troubles are only beginning. At Nightlight, everyone has something to hide - from the campers to the “converted” staff and cagey camp director - and it quickly becomes clear that no one is safe. Connor plans to escape and bring the other kidnapped teens with him. But first, he’s exposing the camp’s horrible truths for what they are - and taking this place down.

Story
Dearie and Cole are inseparable, unlikeable, and (in bad luck for them) totally unbelievable. From the day they met, Dearie and Cole have been two against the world. But whenever something bad happens at Stone Grove High School, they get blamed. Why? They’re beautiful, flirtatious, dangerously clever queen bees, and they’re always ready to call out their fellow students. But they’ve never faced a bigger threat than surviving senior year, when Mr. Sandman, a famous, never-caught serial killer emerges from a long retirement—and his hunting ground is their school Queer Club.

Ambrose wakes up on the Coordinated Endeavor with no memory of a launch. There’s more that doesn’t add up: evidence indicates strangers have been on board, the ship’s operating system is voiced by his mother, and his handsome, brooding shipmate has barricaded himself away. But nothing will stop Ambrose from making his mission succeed—not when he’s rescuing his own sister.

Story
In the fall of 1991, Zooey Orson transfers to the Blackfriars School for Boys hoping for a fresh start following a scandal at his last school. Before he knows it, he’s fallen in with a group of boys who all share the same secret, one which they can only express openly within the safety of the clandestine gatherings of the Vicious Circle—the covert club for gay students going back decades. But when the boys unwittingly happen upon the headmaster’s copy of an arcane occult text, they unleash an eldritch secret so terrible, it threatens to consume them all.

The first thing I noticed about C.J. Gorman was his plexiglass bra. So begins Destination Unknown—it's 1987 in New York City, and Micah is at a dance club, trying to pretend he's more out and outgoing than he really is. C.J. isn't just out—he’s complete out there, and Micah can't help but be both attracted to and afraid of someone who travels so loudly and proudly through the night. A connection occurs. Is it friendship? Romance? Is C.J. the one with all the answers... or does Micah bring more to the relationship that it first seems?

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, however, 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.

He still holds out hope in a tiny corner of his heart, but even in his wildest dreams he never thought he’d meet the Crown Prince of England, much less do a lot more with him.

When they meet by chance at an event Carter’s boss is organizing, Carter’s sure he imagined all that sizzling chemistry. Or was it mutual?

Thankful for the Narrator!
This is a hard review to write. I finished this book today and... I don't love it. I don't hate it either.
First of all, I listened to the audio book and the narrator (Daniel Henning) was superb. As an avid reader of LGBTQ+ YA literature, I guess I came into this expecting something different. Maybe I expected something more like LC Rosen's "Camp" or a quaint mystery that the kids in the story would solve while having fun shenanigans together. Although funny at times (mostly because of the amazing narration) and a likeable main character, the plot had some dark turns that were sometimes uncomfortable.
Now that I've finished and had a few hours to sit with thoughts of the book, I'm sure the uncomfortableness was intentional... but if you're looking for a lighthearted boy-meets-boy-at-summer-camp-and-adventure-and-love-both-ensue, you are not going to find that here!

Tone???
There are some things to enjoy about this book - but the tone is so incredibly uneven. Was this horror, dark comedy, literary fiction? I have finished it and I have no clue. if you aren't up for scenes of true horror... stay away. the narrator has a fun, unique voice; but all the other characters are cartoons. I can't recommend to LGBTQ kids... it is just too dark.
