I never saw the Lois Lane/Veronica Mars connection until I read this book. Gwenda Bond spins an enjoyable story of a high school-aged Lois Lane, who moves to Metropolis hoping for a fresh start.

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 […]
