Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2395 KP) rated The Thousand-Dollar Tan Line (Veronica Mars, #1) in Books

Mar 9, 2018

Set a couple of months after the movie ends, Veronica is hired to find a college student who vanished from a party during spring break. With the tourist industry in town losing money, can Veronica find this girl?

The plot was worth of the franchise with some great twists and turns. The characters were also true to themselves, and I loved spending time with them. My only real complaint was that I missed the snark of Veronica's voiceover narration from the TV show and movie.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2395 KP) rated Clash of the Class Clowns (Tales of a Sixth-Grade Muppet, #2) in Books

Mar 9, 2018

Danvers' sister has gotten her own reality show, much to Miss Piggy's dismay. Meanwhile, the new student at Danvers' school is a jokester who makes Danvers and his friends the main target. Can Danvers use what he is learning from the Muppets to take this guy on?

There are so many story lines happening, yet everything keeps weaving together perfectly. Meanwhile, the Muppets and the new characters are all enjoyable. I just wish Pepe didn't use "okay" every time he was on the page, okay?

Book Rating

Wonderfully crafted story with warm (and cold) touches.

Radio Silence is a perfect book for any student going into University or A-Levels. Touching on subjects such as identity and sexuality, we see how young Frances deals with her life and the trials that come with it.

After kissing Carys, a friend who disappeared, and befriending her brother, Frances must go on and attempt to complete her first year of A-levels. Within the story, there are doubts, congratulations and cold hard truths that many students dont know of.

As the tagline says, what if everything you set yourself up to be was wrong?
