Summary: This stuff is really good reading
Review: A friend of mine gave me "One for the money", and after reading a mere 25 pages, was hooked. Even though you have to read from books one through seven, it's still an awesome read. Stephanie Plum is a great character, and so is Joe Morelli. I highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to have a good read...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I've still got a smile on my face...
Review: Oh my goodness, _One for the Money_ is one of the most hysterical books I've ever read. Stephanie Plum is one kicking chick and a total joy to read about. _One for the Money_ is so fast paced and addicting that I read it in one sitting. Janet Evanovich really puts all she has into her first mystery novel and it shows. The story line is unique, her main character, Stephanie Plum, is so well developed you can practically see her, and the suspense is masterful. One book is definitely not enough and I would suggest buying at least two more books in the series before starting this one because you will want to read these books as fast as you can. I just can't say enough good things about _One for the Money_ and the whole Stephanie Plum series. It's got everything you could ever want in a book/series. One amazing main character, spicy secondary characters, and a plot/ writing style so addicting you can't put the book down. Stop reading reviews about this book and pick up _One for the Money_! Right now!

Summary: What a kick
Review: I am so glad I starated at the beginning of this funny fresh series. I have gotten some of my friends hooked on Stephanie and Gramma Mazur. I laughed until my mascara ran. Keep them coming.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Poorly Written
Review: I am an avid reader of this genre, and was excited to begin a new series and bond with a new heroine. Unfortunatly the level of writing was poor, and I do not intend to read any more of this author's books. This book was written at a high-school reader's level, but with adult content. In my opinion a bad combination.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Your Money's Worth
Review: After finishing 7up, I needed a Janet fix. Dug up my copy of One and sat down to enjoy all over. Just as funny the second time. Loved seeing the crew again. Ranger was great and Joe Morelli was so good. The scene with Steph handcuffed to the bathtub and Ranger rescues her...... Ya gotta love it. This series is a hoot. All funny characters to be followed all the way thru. Just one good time! It's a feel good book without being sappy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fun reading
Review: I was told I couldn't find this book used. I did and I loved it. Lots of fun to read. Now I see why it's hard to find used.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Introduce yourself to Evanovich's Colorful Characters
Review: Janet's story of how Stephanie Plum becomes a bounty hunter after losing her job as a lingerie buyer is laced with her characters' colorfulness, a close knit neighborhood and the idiosyncrasies of her opinionated family. Humorous asides of these characters kept me chuckling while I followed the plot like a donkey after a carrot!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One for the Money
Review: I love Stephanie Plum!! I have read all during the last month starting with this one and am now nearing the end of Seven Up hoping that Eight will be soon to follow. I have come to the conclusion that indeed Debbie Mazar should be Stephanie (that feeling not originally mine, I guess, because I see that she has narrated one of the AudioCassette versions.) It's hard to see anyone but Steven Seagal as Ranger (though he is a little older than I would like him to be for this role). Grandma Mazur has to be Estelle Getty, of course. Loretta Devine is Lula and Sally sounds like Howard Stern in drag...So many fun characters brought so fully alive through Evanovich's colorful dialog! I love how she has such wonderful elderly characters in her stories and develops Stephanie to the extent that you feel that she is a very real person and has been a part of your life. I think it should be a TV movie if not a series! Hurry with the next one Janet!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very Funny
Review: It was suggested that I get my nose out of romance books and read something different. My friend suggested these. OH MY GOSH- I am hooked.

I woke my husband up laughing so hard at parts of this book. The grandmother of Stephanie Plum is a riot. She says the kinds of things that we all want to say and don't dare. The main character is kind of a mess at times and yet somehow things seem to work out.

If you want an easy to read, funny book; this is the book to get. If you want something with deap meaning and lots of themes, don't bother.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: One for the Money
Review: I read this book as a recommendation by a friend and I loved it. I am now on her third Stephanie Plum novel. It is light, fun and down right funny. I recommend it to anyone with a sense of humor.
