This book was really cute. It's the second in a series and I haven't read the first so I'm sure some references were lost on me but I enjoyed it nonetheless.
The main character, Charlie Howard, has a great sense of humor and the book had me chuckling in some places.
I enjoyed the platonic relationship between Charlie and Victoria. I wish more authors would write friendships like this.
The mystery itself was a bit confusing and I found it difficult to keep track of everything. I'm not sure whether this is my own intellectual shortcomings or the author's writing.
Though difficult to follow along plot wise, it was an easy and light read. There were a lot of places referenced throughout the book that I'm not familiar with but it didn't take away from the story.
