Summary: Our Bookclub LOVES this one...
Review: We all had to agree, it was funny, twisted, and romantic, but most of all it was just a great and easy read. It was refreshing to read something that you just knew had to end as bizzarre as it started. It was hilarous..... we may read it again next year. I believe we will "laugh-out-loud" at this one for a long time.

Summary: Full House
Review: Definitely not up to the standard of the Stephanie Plum novels. Very disappointing.

Summary: Not Plum, but an easy, enjoyable read
Review: I am the typical Evanovich fan. I will read practically anything with her name on it and so I wanted to try some of her older stuff. This definitely was not a "Plum" novel, but it was a lighthearted, easy read. I didn't find myself laughing out loud very much as I sometimes laugh to tears at Stephanie's escapades, but it did leave you with a good feeling in the end.

Summary: An interesting read, but not the usual Janet
Review: Picked up this book on the spur of the moment finding Janet Evanovich's books a must light read. For those seeking a fix before the next full length Stephanie Plum novel, this might not be the best choice. The tale is certainly light enough with divorced mother of two Annie finding love and excitement with handsome Nick. The story moves quickly with usual red herrings. But certain characters seemed more paper-doll cutouts. Overall, a definite library checkout or purchase for a hefty discount only read.

Summary: we've been swindled!
Review: I want my money back! This isn't a new Evanovich novel, it's recycled garbage! This book wasn't even good enough to be a Harlequin the first time it came out - it was a Silouette - and now that Evanovich is fanous for her Stephanie Plum novels, they've recycled this piece of dreck to capitalize off of her reputation. I have never felt so cheated by a publisher as I did when I tried to read this book.

Summary: What's going on, Janet?
Review: Wow! What a disappointment... I certainly never thought that the author who created the wonderful Stephanie Plum would EVER be associated with a book like this! It was pure "dreck." It read like a first offering from a struggling new novelist. No tension, no suspense, no plot, no nada!
I felt after the Christmas book fiasco, (weren't we ALL victims of Diesel) that perhaps the lure of the "big bucks" had altered Janet's integrity. THIS book certainly confirms that.
Shame on you!

Summary: Funny and entertaining
Review: It's a light romance with some suspense and mystery thrown in and a bunch of hilarious characters. I love Janet Evanovich's characterizations; she's in high form here; parts of this book were so funny.

Summary: She's no Stephanie Plum
Review: I was SO disappointed with this book. I didn't even finish it. It had NONE of the snap of the Plum series. It was sappy and tacky.

Summary: Dissapointed
Review: After reading the Stephanie Plum series, I was really dissapointed in the supposedly re-vamped and re-issue of Full House. At first it seemed pretty interesting, but suddenly turned sour. Boring, no real thrill. Plot is the same ole thing. Boy meets girl, girl not interested then boy sweeps her off her feet. I was in the middle of the book and skipped to the last chapter and that seemed to be a little more exciting. Maybe that was the re-write portion.

Summary: A "nice" review of a fun book
Review: Well, well, well...with everyone being so harsh on Ms. Evanovich, figured I'd be nice. I liked this book. It's not one I'd put on the shelf next to classic Faulkner, Hemingway, or Thoreau, but it was definitely a nice "light" read. I call her books "airplane books" because they're typically witty, fun, and can easily be read on a 3-hour flight. This book was simply put, a romantic mystery. Sure, it was predictable, but Evanovich did throw in some curves to add doubts to your predictions. Billie (the divorced mom of two) and her crazy romance with Nick (the rich man) was highly unrealistic, but hey, the story made me laugh out loud, cry at times, get my anxiety all worked up, feel all icky (spiders...eww), even make me hot and bothered. Sure, it had some typos and some major editing mistakes (particularly with character names), but hey, I'm sure Evanovich will hire a new editing team for the next book. I'd DEFINITELY RECOMMEND Full House for a fun, "light," afternoon read!
