Rating: Summary: Hot Stuff Review: A whiz-bang story! Snappy dialog. Zany yet believable characters. Hot men. What more can you ask for?
Rating: Summary: HOT SIX - Savor it for SEVEN! Review: This best yet Stephanie Plum suspense thriller is a hoot from the get-go, with a dysfunctional set of characters that can't shoot straight. Bounty hunter Plum tries to help her friend and mentor Carlos (Ranger) Manoso solve the murder of the son of an international gunrunner. Ranger, a mercenary by training, is wanted for questioning in connection with the murder. Stephanie's not sure whether she should 1) seduce Ranger 2) take him down for the bounty 3) or try and help him solve the whodunit. Along the way Stephanie, with her occasional side-kick Lula, bumbles a couple of bounty take downs; helps her grandmother get her driver's license (so she can buy a hot car); gets help from her spaced-out friends Mooner and Dougie (who can't get enough of 'I Dream of Jeannie' reruns from the sixties); and takes in an unwanted dog who eats everything and poops like there's no tomorrow. Of course, the bad guys aren't much better, tailing Stephanie all day long (to get to suspect Ranger) until 5 pm when its time to take the kids to soccer practice. This novel should be cataloged as a comedy rather than a suspense thriller. Like something out of the Three Stooges or an SNL skit, this JANET EVANOVICH novel is outright hilarious! I mean outright, as in constantly howling out loud! The storyline, dialog, and characters are exceptional in this easy-to-read Stephanie Plum series book. Fans, old and new, won't want to miss this read while waiting impatiently for number SEVEN.
Rating: Summary: WHAT AM I GOING TO DO??????? Review: I am lost without another Stephanie Plum adventure to read. This series of books is the best I have ever read. Great one-line zingers, unique and funny character (especially Grandma Mazur) and all the twists and turns expected of any good mystery. PLEASE, Janet. Hurry up with number 7.
Rating: Summary: I'm hooked! Review: I borrowed this book from a co-worker and am now hooked! I didn't want to put it down. This book is fast paced and easy to read. Even if you did not start at the beginning of the series (like me), you can easily jump right in and follow along. I love the way Stephanie Plum thinks -- just like me. Sarcastically funny. I highly recommend this book.
Rating: Summary: Hysterical Hot Six!! Review: I had more fun reading this book! Plum and her circle of "friends" are more real, but the situations Plum gets herself into this time are laugh out loud hysterical!I don't want to give too much away, but the "hit men" who are following her really give Hot Six a KICK.
Rating: Summary: Laughing Out Loud Review: Stephanie Plum does it again. This unique bounty hunter gets her men with such a sense of fun, humor and wit, you can't help laughing along with her. Hot Six presents a mystery within a light-hearted read that will keep you chuckling, especially at the antics of Grandma Mazur. I thoroughly recommend this latest of the Stephanie Plum series.
Rating: Summary: Mix one part Sue Grafton and one part Patricia Cornwell Review: An easy read but the beach season is over. The main character is a mixture of Kinsey Millhone (Sue Grafton) and Kay Scarpetta (Patricia Cornwell), you are better off reading a book about each. The subplots are entertaining and help distract you from the main plot which is silly. Many of the characters seem like "caricatures", not real people. For example, the two goons following her and "the Dealer" Wait for next summer then buy the paperback.
Rating: Summary: Hot Dang! She's done it again! Review: I have NEVER....I'm saying NEVER...enjoyed a series of books like I have all six mystery/romance/humor/Stephanie Plum and Co. tales by Janet Evanovich. By the time I made it to Hot Six, I found myself wringing my hands because I didn't have another one to move on to. JE simply won't make it out with #7 soon enough for me....and the long list of relatives and friends I have introduced to these books. I should be receiving a 10% cut for the PR work I've done on behalf of JE! Once you start a JE book....it's like opening a bag of peanuts. You can't stop at one! The best part of Hot Six is we get to know a little more about Ranger, which only left me thirsty for even more of him. Joe Morelli is pretty hot stuff, but Ranger is starting to run neck & neck with him in the "Bring On The Hot Hunks" department. One more book and Stephanie isn't going to know which of these two guys jump starts her libido the quickest. Poor dear, what a dilemma! What fun reading this series has been! Wish I could give this book 10 stars!
Rating: Summary: We Need More Stars for Hot Six!!!! Review: NOBODY, but nobody can write a funnier, wittier, smarter or sexier book than Janet Evanovich. She is the reigning queen of the one-liner! I keep thinking there's no way that her books can get any funnier, but they do. This side-splitter sees Stephanie and Grandma Mazur becoming temporary roommates and Stephanie becoming the proud owner, of sorts, of a golden retriever, Bob. I think Bob stole the story from Grandma Mazur as far as hilarious scenes go. I don't even want to give one away, they're all so good. I highly recommend this book and ALL of Janet's books for a wonderful, light-hearted escape from reality. Reading her books instantly erases all of your worries and cares. Thank you, Janet, for another great Stephanie Plum story!!!!!!
Rating: Summary: She's Going After RANGER?! Review: At first, I thought, you're nuts, Stephanie! How can you hunt Mister Invisible, RANGER, Joe-Pro Bounty Hunter. But, a gals got to do what a bounty hunter's gots to do. And she does it with wit and style and less than polite grace. Top rate! Another wonderful addition to the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich. It's about time that someone like TRI STAR pictures has decided to do a Stephanie Plum movie. This series is fun, and humble and contagious. ONE FOR THE MONEY starts it off. I can't wait until book seven arrives. The dog was a great addition.
