Description
Brenna and Joe kick off Book 8 with the first entry in The Lorien Legacy series: I Am Number Four (2010).
Ostensibly written by "Pittacus Lore", this is actually from James Frey's Fiction Factory, which paid MFA students $250 to write YA books for the disgraced author.
The book is basically Teen Superman as alien John Doe falls in love with human girl, alien species "the Mogs" try to murder him, and a school is exploded in the process.
It's pretty tropey!
