The Thousand-Dollar Tan Line

I feel about this much the way I felt about the Veronica Mars movie, which is to say I can't be objective about it because my overriding feeling is just YAY MORE VERONICA MARS YAY!!

I rarely read mysteries so IDK how this compares to other mystery books. It was as twisty and bonkers as an average story arc of the series. I was happy to see more of all my fave Veronica Mars characters–this picks up right after where the movie left off. (So if for some reason you're interested enough in Veronica Mars to want to read this, but haven't seen the movie yet... see the movie first.)

I wouldn't say I loved it quite as much as I love the show–a lot of Veronica's ~snarky quips~ work better when Kristen Bell is saying them, as opposed to just being read on the page. (I saw that she read the audiobook and I bet that would be worth pursuing.)

Still: I loved it! It's more Veronica Mars! Hooray!
