…just remember me when….

Veronica Mars: Mr. Kiss And Tell by Rob Thomas and Jennifer Graham

by 1 Comment

I don’t know how the revival series is going to go on Hulu but as far as this Veronica Mars fan is concerned, Rob Thomas and Jennifer Graham could’ve kept pushing these books out and I would have been content. Much like the other one, this takes place immediately following the events of the movie and feels oh-so-much like an extended episode of Veronica Mars. There are fewer auxiliary characters than usual; this is mostly just Veronica and her dad, with Mac, Weevil and Logan on the edges, but I think that works better to streamline the story. (TW: mention of rape) […]

100% True to the Spirit of the Show

Veronica Mars: The Thousand Dollar Tan Line by Rob Thomas and Jennifer Graham

by 1 Comment

While I wouldn’t say I’m a “Marshmallow” per se, I do like the Veronica Mars tv series. The first season is one of my all-time favorite seasons of a show. I didn’t enjoy number two as much for spoilery reasons but it wasn’t bad and the third season is better than it’s reputation. The movie is fun. I’m not one for high school melodramas but Rob Thomas and team get the noir/mystery aspects of the show down well and Kristen Bell is great as Veronica, the evolutionary Marlowe-type. There were two books written immediately after the events of the movie and I’m […]

A Little Forgettable

Veronica Mars: Mr. Kiss and Tell by Rob Thomas & Jennifer Graham

by Leave a Comment

I’ve loved Veronica Mars for forever, so I can’t keep away from anything set in that world I can get my hands on. This is the second book in the Veronica Mars world and like the first, its events take place after the VMars movie. The Neptune Grand owners come to Veronica after a woman claims a Neptune staff member assaulted her and left her to die. Veronica’s job is finding out if this woman’s story is truth, lies, or something in-between. Unfortunately that’s easier said than done. Despite hiring her, the hotel is being less than forthcoming and because […]

Vinnie Van Lowe, where art thou?

Veronica Mars: Mr. Kiss and Tell by Rob Thomas and Jennifer Graham

by 2 Comments

I am a marshmallow and I’m not afraid to admit it. I own all three seasons of Veronica Mars on DVD. I gave money to the Kickstarter and have my t-shirt and movie script. I watched the Dick Casablancas web series. And I love this new book series by Rob Thomas and Jennifer Graham. I love having some of my all-time favorite characters back in book format, bringing me quips and feels galore. Veronica and the gang are back, just a few months after the events of The Thousand Dollar Tan Line. This time around, Veronica is hired once again by […]

Can We Still Be Friends If I Tase You?

Mr. Kiss and Tell by Rob Thomas and Jennifer Graham

by 1 Comment

  The problem with reading the second book in the Veronica Mars book series,Mr. Kiss and Tell, is that now it’s over and I just wanna hang out in Neptune with all of my literary friends. I felt a pang of regret  as I closed the book because I wish I could’ve savored it more.But no,I just plowed through the two books this weekend without once thinking of the consequences. And here I am, satisfied by the book but left wishing there were at least ten more at the ready for me to devour. The second book has more turmoil […]

A Long Time Ago, We Used To Be Friends

The Thousand Dollar Tan Line by Rob Thomas and Jennifer Graham

by Leave a Comment

  I am fan girling so hard right now. Up until a couple of months ago, I had no idea that the Veronica Mars books had come to fruition. Then lo and behold I start reading reviews on here and I was all,”Waaaaaahhhhh?” Let me tell you a little story of how the first time I saw The V Mars movie, I cried towards the end because I didn’t want to lose her again. I’m mildly psychotic about this fictitious character because we are the same person–ok, only our acerbic wit is the same, otherwise, I wish we’re the same […]

More seediness in Neptune

Mr. Kiss and Tell (Veronica Mars #2) by Rob Thomas, Jennifer Graham

by Leave a Comment

Mr. Kiss and Tell dives a bit more into the politics of Neptune, an always enjoyable seedy area to explore. Petra Landros has once again hired Veronica to investigate — this time, the alleged rape and beating of a girl who had stayed at the Neptune Grand. The victim claims an employee of the hotel committed the crime, and she’s suing to cover her medical costs. Landros wants to know if he did it (the accused skipped town), and Veronica wants to find out the truth (that’s what she does!). Of course, she drags Mac and Wallace (and Leo!) in on the case, gets herself […]

The tiny blonde one has returned!

The Thousand-Dollar Tan Line (Veronica Mars #1) by Rob Thomas, Jennifer Graham

by Leave a Comment

The Thousand-Dollar Tan Line (Veronica Mars #1) reads like the best (although, very chaste) Veronica Mars fanfiction that I’ve ever read. I mean that as a huge compliment — as a great lover of a show that got cancelled way too soon, I have sought out fan fiction as a way to continue Veronica’s story for years. Plus I like the naughty bits with Logan that they never got to in the show (LoVe 4eva!). Logan’s on a boat for most of The Thousand-Dollar Tan Line, but it’s still a great extension of their story and the story of Neptune as a whole. Picking […]
