9/10
Those pennies
29 July 2018
The premise is pretty odd, as it features a guy who somehow makes a penny stand on its end. This for some reason gives him the ability to hear other people's thoughts. I don't know why. I guess it just makes for a funny title. It's kind of sad how so many people are secretly jerks. My favorite part is when he hears a guy who wants to rob a bank.

He tries to have him arrested, but he turns out he's innocent. The twist is that he did indeed plan on robbing the bank. He just eventually decided not to. The characters, especially the protagonist are fairly likeable. It's just set up well. Not one of the worst, but still unique. ***1/2
