A fun read. Nice to have Skink as a major character instead of his usual cameo.

Classic Hiaasen, a quick and fun read for any fan, even if it is geared toward young adults. Anytime you have Skink and Jim Tile, you know the bad guys are going down, and Florida wildlife will have the ultimate revenge. Where is Malley, who is the guy she ran away with, and how does her cousin team up with a tall, balding homeless man who wears a shower cap and has a brilliant smile? A striped soda straw will lead the way.
