Summary: Back on track!
Review: To the Nines put Janet Evanovich back on my list of favorite authors. I was very, very disappointed in Visions of Sugarplums. It wasn't even worth finishing. But, Janet Evanovich is back on track with To the Nines. The tug of war between Ranger and Morelli keeps things exciting - who can resist two bad boys!
Keep up the good work.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Maybe the best one yet!!!
Review: Loved, loved, LOVED this book!! I didn't intend to read it as soon as I got it but I just HAD to scan the first page or two. It pulled me right in and kept my interest. I read it at every possible moment I could find. Fast paced and, as usual, I was sorry to have it end. In my opinion this one is probably the best..........but I can't wait for #10!!!!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Terrific Summer Reading
Review: This book was a lot of fun, especially the trip to Las Vegas and Lula's dieting antics. There was a darker side to this novel with the stalker, too, which gave it interest (of course, it was easy to figure out who the main bad guy was, but that didn't ruin the fun of the novel). This one should definitely be on your summer reading list!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Five Stars for the Ninth Book
Review: Evanovich's Christmas novella, Visions of Sugar Plums, stunk but this book redeems the series. In fact this is the best one yet. The scenes with Lula, the plus-sized ex-hooker, attempting to lose weight on the Atkins Diet were hilarious. Make sure you log onto Evanovich's website to enter the contest to name the 10th book in the series.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best Plum Yet
Review: "To the Nines" is the best Plum yet! By this point in the series I feel as if I know the characters so well that Evanovich's descriptions of their antics are side-splitting funny! Fast-paced and hilarious! Don't miss out.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A laugh out loud read
Review: I am a die hard Evanovitch fan, and this book will keep me going for a long time. If you haven't read any of the Plum books, this one is great. I would recommend starting at One for the Dough and reading stright through. I read the first 7 books while on vacation for a week at the beach. They are easy and great reads. Keep up the good work Janet.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a big improvement
Review: I was very disappointed in "Hard Eight" and much much happier with "to the nines." The story is a bit more complex, more things happen, and Stephanie is showing a little bit of growth as a character and as a bounty hunter. The other characters are developing a bit too. Looking forward to the next one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY LOVED IT!!!
Review: My what a pleasure this book was. After being thoroughly dissapointed in the last few in this series I was almost ready to write it off... but J.E. had this one come out 2 days BEFORE my birthday so I figured it was a sign LOL

Anyhoo my review. It was Fantastic!!! and keeping in mind that I was ready to be letdown, you can imagine my elation. First of all Stephanie (IMO) has matured in the relationship department (if I say more than that it will give away to much of the anticipation of seeing who she is with now) Lula is "HELL"-Arious. I found that I was laughing quite a bit, chuckling over the ordeals that Stephanie customarily find herself in. I can always tell when a book is good to me, by how often I am willing to part from it. Everytime I went somewhere I had this book in tow LOL ie; Lunch, Restroom, Browsing Bookstores, Get my hair done, while waiting at the Gas Stations or Restaurants etc.

As someone mentioned before J.E. let go of some of the "staple" incidents with Stephanie and some of the "bizarre" characters that she tends to borrow from previous books are also missing... which I'm happy to say is probably why this one was so good. It was almost like a START UP to the series.

You do get to see Stephanie's family and Joe's family <---- BOY was that a hoot!! their trip to Vegas was hysterical and the hunt for the killer was kind of non-climatic in the end, instead of the Cars getting demolished throughout the book you get Rangers Army of Mighty Men having their very own mishaps while shadowing Stephanie.

I say if you like this series it is worth the price for the Hardcover... I know a lot of my friends have started just waiting for the paperbacks to be released cuz they didn't feel it was worth it. Not so with this one.

Summary: Time to do some work on this series
Review: We were excited about the new Stephanie Plum -- hoping to get back to laughing out loud after the Christmas and Romance disasters. There were smiles and Stephanie actually seemed a little more real than in the past. But the plotting was so obvious, this book could not have kept a 10-year-old guessing. Stephanie needs to figure out what to do with Morelli and do it -- or come up with some new tension. And is any one else bothered by the fact that the only African American in the series is the fat ho with the heart of gold and no sense? Even Ranger only hangs out with white guys. What's up with that?

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: BLAND
Review: I just didn't feel the energy in this book that I have in most of the other "Plum" series books. I had the honor of meeting Ms. Evanovich and she says she has a lot more to come. I am a big fan of this series but this book was preditable with every page I turned. Sorry.... I know this is not a popular response.
