Summary: Watch out Kinsey...She's gonna gitcha!
Review: Stephie just gets better and better. This character is growing into a person that I'd like to know personally. Ms. Evanovich has got a knack that make her heroine more human than either Kinsey or the ever whining Kay Scarpetta. Excuse me...DOCTOR Kay Scarpetta. I hope that Stephanie will eventually travel out of Trenton and see a bit more of the surrounding world. This book refines Stephanie Plum. That's it. Ross Homer

Summary: Good, but not the best of the four!
Review: I read all four of Evanovich's books at once, starting with the first and progressing through - not the best one - but Stephanie and Joe do finally get together!

Summary: Laughed out loud!
Review: I've read all of the Stephanie Plum books, and this one was funnier than all the rest (unless I was waiting so long for it to come out). Loved the new character, and laughed out loud every time Stephanie has to get in that Buick with all her "help."

Summary: This book scores with me!
Review: I ordered this book before I read amazon.com's review. Afterward I read that Stephanie's car and apartment get blown up. Argh! Not Big Blue! Not Rex! (I was so worried about these two members of the cast that I was almost sorry I'd ordered the book.) Fortunately, Big Blue and Rex survive in this very funny book. I particularly enjoyed: the showdown with the punk kids in Atlantic City, meeting Joe's Grandma Bella (and the aftermath of that dinner), Lula's way of dealing with the infamous Joyce, and the creative [non-fatal] way an abused woman deals with her abuser. Other comments: Sally Sweet is a nice addition to the cast. Lula is only 200 pounds? She's lost 30 since the last book? Stephanie isn't even remotely plump, so it's ridiculous for her to feel bad because she outweighs a teenager she meets. She's supposed to! There's an error on p.242 that I hope gets corrected for the paperback. (It's the sentence near the bottom that starts with "Got tire! d of sand..." Maxine's mother is doing the talking, but the book has it, "Maxine said.") Ann E. Nichols

Summary: I enjoyed it so much that I had to tell someone about it.
Review: When I happened on the first of the series, "One for the Money", I was laughing out loud in the check out line. I loved it and when no one else seemed to know about the book, I started leaving little sticky notes saying, "Read this book!" on the books for sale at my local bookstore.I was a little disappointed in book # 3, "Three to Get Deadly". However, I loved "Four to Score" as much as the first. It's funny, smart, sexy and the "mystery" can take a back seat to Joe Morelli anyday. Once again, I was laughing aloud in the check out line. Like other readers, I think Evanovich tops Grafton for fun and readability. I'd recommend the series to almost anyone!

Summary: It was awesome!!!!
Review: I loved this book! It was funny and sweet. I was excited when she and Joe got together. I'm cheering for those two. Maybe they'll get married yet. The scenes with his family were classic. Keep them coming. Here's hoping that the next one comes sooner!! A year is much to long to wait!

Summary: Stephanie is back and funnier than ever in this great read!
Review: Stephanie and all the other characters from the other books in this series are back and they are funnier than ever! This is a quick, very entertaining book with some of the greatest characters you will ever meet. The story is a good one with lots of twists and turns and will hold your interest. But it is the characters -Stephanie, Joe Morelli, Grandma Mazur and all of Stephanie's cohorts and the Italian, New Jersey setting which will keep you reading and often laughing out loud! This is the best one yet in a very good series which keeps getting better all the time! If you haven't tried one of these books about Stephanie Plum, the female bounty hunter from New Jersey, who keeps running into trouble on the most innocent of skip traces, you are in for a treat when you do!

Summary: This has got to be a movie!
Review: If you want to laugh out loud, read this book. On the first page, we find cousin Vinnie in his office slapping Mr. Johnson around.( It took me a minute). I could see Fran Dreisher as Stephanie, hopefully without the big hair and Nanny clothes. The gag about Joyce Barnhart was hilarious. The thought of Lula in tiger striped bicycle shorts is also hilarious. Somebody please make a movie (and don't ruin it)

Summary: Typically Jersey, delightful, well written
Review: I had read the previous 3 books about Stephanie Plum and was very anxious for this one to come out. Never did I realize I would be reading this book while in Jersey and attending a funeral for my mother in law, therefore, I spent some time in a funeral home. I felt the other books were definitely, typically Jersey and this one didn't ruin my expectations. I just can't believe that I didn't see this book featured at Newark Airport, it should have been. Grandma is such a great character and over the years, before we moved, I am sure we saw several like her. The humor is so well done, I look forward to more of her books. My husband who doesn't read most of my books, is now reading this one. Keep up the good work, Janet.

Summary: Janet Evanovich is Four for Four with Four to Score!
Review: What a great series! What great characters! When reading in public I forget myself and laugh out loud only to look up and find people staring. I tell them to read the book. After reading the first three in the series, it was agonizing waiting for the fourth. Now it will me even more agonizing waiting for the next Stephanie Plum adventure. Someone should make a movie.
