Last night, I finished reading The Unforgettable Logan Foster by Shawn Peters. This adventure is about Logan Foster, a twelve-year-old orphan with an eidetic memory and diagnosed autism who has given up on being adopted. During an outing with his orphanage's supervisor, Ms. Kondrat, and his new prospective parents, Gil and Margie, there is a sudden earthquake and the ground splits, exploding with lava. Logan and Ms. Kondrat get separated from Gil and Margie and somehow manage to save themselves. Logan thinks he has lost his chance with Gil and Margie, but they come back the next day to bring him to their home. Over the next couple weeks, Logan notices some odd things about them: their house is protected by some unusually elaborate security, Gil works long hours, and Margie disappears during one of his school's evacuations. When he learns that Gil and Margie are actually superheroes and they don't come home after school one day, he and his new friend, Elena, have to find a way to save them.
This was such a fun, action-packed story. I really enjoyed everything about it from beginning to end. Logan was such an interesting character with how much information he has packed into his brain and I liked his friendship with Elena. Gil and Margie were also really awesome, and despite the challenges of being superheroes, it was obvious that they grew to really care about Logan. There were definitely times when I was really nervous that they would have to give up Logan and that would have absolutely sucked. Additionally, the villains were extremely diabolical and I was rooting against them the whole time. Anyone who loves action, adventure, and superheroes should read this book.
