Rating: Summary: I cant wait for book Six Review: This was the best book in the Plum series so far. I read it in about 3 hours. I was disappointed only because I want to know wat happens next and I can't find out until book 6. I liked that she revealed more about the sub-characters in this book. I Have to go read ot again.
Rating: Summary: Screamingly funny! Review: The best yet. Laughed outloud at least every couple of pages. This series is a pure delight!
Rating: Summary: Simply Wonderful...! Review: I enjoyed HIGH FIVE. It made me laugh, hard. I think this series is great and please, if you haven't read the first four, do. As with any series, you get to know the characters well and this book can stand alone but...read the first four first. You won't regret it. I'm sorry to read that someone didn't enjoy this book as much as I did. Oh, well. I finished this book in two days, a page-turner. I didn't want it to end. Janet Evanovich, if you read this, just keep doing what your doing, we love it!
Rating: Summary: It has everything; mystery, action, humor and sex, done well Review: I've read all of Janet's books and like everyone else who's ever picked up a Stephanie Plum story, Janet just can't write them fast enough to suit me. There is no deterioration in anything from her first book to her last. They just keep getting better and better. Where else can you have all that humor and still be on the edge of your seat, scared to death some monster is going to come in the window from the fire escape. The characters are hilarious and the writing is great. You never want it to end and as soon as it does, you want to pick up another one. SO HURRY WITH THE NEXT ONE JANET!!!
Rating: Summary: "High 5"? Marketing 101 - returning this book to Amazon.com Review: Deeply disappointing. Thoroughly enjoyed the first four in this series. Now Evanovich seems trapped in the Two Guys/One Narrator-Gal series problem. It's just to lure us through the series, while there is no plan or character development point.The book was mostly "Stephanie Plum's Greatest Hits". All the key things repeat from past books: funeral viewings, Stephanie's car woes, Grandma gets her hand on a weapon, junk food menu reviews, and waaaaaay too many plot threads. Ultimately leading to a big fake-out final three pages, begging: Read my next book, please! I won't. I'm returning this hardback copy to Amanzon.com. I might leave message at the author's webiste, and will definitely write the publisher. Very cheap ending ploy.
Rating: Summary: This is an I-couldn't-put-it-down-laughed-til-I cried book!! Review: Janet Evanovich has done it again - I think this is probably her best Stephanie book yet. I picked it up, started reading and didn't unglue my eyes until I was done - then I went back and re-read all the "good" parts. This book has something for everyone; a great mystery, lots of action, barrels of laughs and the sexiest characters to inhabit a page. My only objection was that it ended too soon and it has something of a cliffhanger ending. This is the second book I've read this month that concluded like this (the first was the new Elizabeth Peters book) It's going to bug me to death until I get the next installment. And I just want to say that this is mental cruelty of the worst sort!! (I hope that was plaintive enough to influence Ms. Evanovich to write faster.) I do suggest that anyone who hasn't read the entire series, should read the other four books, in order, before this one - because there's a running theme that starts with the first one and builds throughout.
Rating: Summary: Another winner from Janet Evanovich! Loved it! Review: As with all Janet's books I read it in one day. Couldn't put it down. Another great adventure for Miss Plum from my favorite author. You can always count on high adventure and several laughs. I'm already anxiously awaiting number six. When you see how this one ends you will know why.
Rating: Summary: One of the Best Books I have ever read Review: But you can't just read one. You have to have the whole bag....Oops...you must read the whole series. Janet Evanovich is a wonder. Just like Potato chips, once you start one of these books, you can not put it down. I odered the first four together...Thank you Amazon...and read them in four days. I got High Five yesterday and read it straight thru last night. Wonderful!
Rating: Summary: D*** Skippy!!! Review: I went the first day this was out and read it that night. Absolutely loved it! Only problem is, I have to wait for number 6 to come out - I can't believe Janet was so cruel as to leave us hanging like she did (but I loved it)!
Rating: Summary: The Thinking Person's Mystery Review: I have read all of Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum mystery series. I have a great time reading her mysteries. They are fun, funny, and entertaining. Her novels are very quick reads: you'll be done in less than two days. What is also great about her novels is that you could read them over and over and not get tired of them. I always look forward to her next Stephanie Plum book. I WILL especially look forward to her next one after HIGH FIVE (you'll understand when you get to the very end). Attention JANET EVANOVICH: keep up the good work. Your novels are WONDERFUL, and what I call the "THINKING PERSON'S MYSTERY."
