Summary: WHAT A HOOT!!!!
Review: This series has given me reading fever!!! If you like a mystery with a strong female character who is smart, fun and someone you would want to have as a best friend you should meet Stephanie Plum. The first line of the book grabs you and doesn't let go. When I finished I was literaly running to the store to buy the next in the series. I laughed out loud while reading. This is also a quick read if you start on a Friday night you can easily have it done before you go to bed on Sunday. This is mature material and I would not recommend it for anyone under the age of 18.

Summary: One of the funniest series ever
Review: Stephanie Plum loses her job as a lingerie buyer and falls into a job working for her cousin as a bounty hunter. Hilarity, confusion, and disaster ensue.Stephanie is not terribly good as a bounty hunter, but her determination and perseverance pay off time after time. She's driving a different car in every book, because each one gets blown up, caught on fire, or otherwise destroyed. Her friends and associates are a menagerie of oddities: Ranger, the supercompetent fellow bounty hunter who finds her both amusing and sexy; Morelli, the cop who's very fond of her but dreads hearing about what she's gotten herself into; the fireplug-shaped Lula, who is always ready for a fight except when she's really facing one; and Stephanie's grandmother, who attends viewings at funeral parlors as a hobby, packs a piece, and is always looking for action. That's not even counting the 6'8" transvestite from High Five. The books are drenched in the atmosphere of Trenton, New Jersey, and a polluted atmosphere it is, too: stoked with chemicals that dramatically hasten natural selection or at least adaptability, plus the cynicism and high crime rate that lead everyone Stephanie meets, just about, to be carrying concealed weaponry, even the ladies at the beauty parlor, who in one hilarious scene start comparing artillery. Then there's the wit and humor. Evanovich observes life in Trenton with a wry, knowing eye, and shares with us the quirks of living there, from the characters mentioned above to the essential tradition Stephanie's mother enforces of having her over for dinner every Sunday evening, jot on time. What can I say? These are delightful books!

Summary: fun first book
Review: This is the first book by Janet that I had read. My mother saw that the series was on a best seller list and thought I might enjoy it; she gave it to me as a birthday present.
The first couple of chapters did not get my attention, infact at first I found the book to be boring and put it down several times which is very much unlike me; I usually read an entire book of this size at one sitting: I put it aside and read something else. Two days later I pulled it out (I was bored and curious: books don't stay unread long on my shelves) and made myself read past the first two chapters. I could not put it down! The characters charmed the socks off of me (I love Gradma Mazur and Stephanie's father reminds me of my own) and the story was fun. I didn't stop laughing. All the bumbling errors and chance meetings (and sexual tension) with Joe made for a fun romp through New Jersey. It is a very good read once I got past the first two chapters, and I would reccomend it to anyone. Janet now has a new dedicated reader.

Summary: loved it!
Review: I loved this book so much. My sister gave it to me as a birthday present. I was laughing by the second page and hysterical by the end. I highly recommend all of Ms. Evanovich's books, both for her humor and for her writing style. Her characters are so true to life that you'll find yourself saying "Hey! I know someone like that!". Read and enjoy!

Summary: ONE RATES A FOUR!!!!!
Review: First book I have read by Evanovich. It was very good. Stephanie Plum is fired from her job and has no money. She hooks up with her cousin Vennie to be a bounty hunter. About like me trying to fly a plane. Very good fun to see her in action. She wants to find Joe Morelli, who she has know since high school. Joe is accussed of murder and has skipped his court hearing. Joe is an ex cop and may or may not be guilty. Along the way she comes in contact with Biento Raminez, a great boxer, who treats women like dirt and I would like to do him in myself. Stephanie does her job through many mishaps, and comicial situations. I like the characters of her family. I really liked Grandma Mazur. I think you will find the ending a surprise but good. The book will hold you attention. I keep thinking of "Laverne and Shirley" even though there were in a different town. Will try to read the rest in order.

Summary: Great to Curl Up With
Review: I have read every one of the Stephanie Plum novels and found myself laughing out loud in doctors' offices, and at the beauty shop, and on my sofa. I hated to put the book down, and hated to have it end. A friend and I were reading the books together and would enjoy them all over again in our discussions. I hope Janet will write many, many more. I'm sending them as Christmas presents!
