4.5 stars (loses half a star because Will 2.0 refuses to use capital letters) Disclaimer! I was given a copy of this through NetGalley in return for a fair and unbiased review.

This book tells the story of two teenage boys, both named Will Grayson. They have alternating points-of-view chapters, one written by […]
The tiny blonde one is growing up and progressing as a detective
Disclaimer! I was given an ARC of this through NetGalley in return for a fair and unbiased review. Readers should be aware that this is the second book of Veronica Mars mysteries.
