Welcome back to the Horny Book Club! This week we're returning to the truly crazy world of Penelope Douglas and finally putting our money where our mouths are! It's Credence and we're SCAWED. AND SAD. And also screaming!! There's some grim stuff in this book but it's not a grim episode, we're laughing so much and SO loudly at some points so apologies in advance to headphone users. Enjoy!!
