Summary: Funny, Funny, Funny!
Review: This is the best Plum book since Four to Score. It had a great story line, Crazy Plum Family Moments, both Ranger and Joe, lots of Laugh out Loud moments, Lula and Connie with Steph on a Mission to Vegas, with some mystery and scary moments thrown in the mix. This book would be fine to read without having read the previous Plum books, when your done and if you love it, go start at the beginning with One For The Money.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: When it comes to Stephanie, I'm always gonna love it!
Review: 'To the Nines' was a real treat for this Stephanie Plum fan! Evanovich has written another funny, entertaining adventure for our girl Stephanie.

The characters that we have loved in previous books are here including the whole crazy Plum household and there is about to be an addition to the family (maybe two).

Lulu and Connie (Vinnie's bail bond office manager) accompany Stephanie to Las Vegas when Stephanie is sent west to track down a very high profile bond jumper that Vinnie can't afford to lose.

Stephanie has always been better than average at discovering dead bodies, but there is an even larger than normal body count as a madman (or woman) stalks Stephanie and sends along pictures of murder victims to terrify Stephanie even further.

It's a tightly plotted mystery and a couple of notches more intense than Evanovich has given us in the last few outings. Evanovich still finds plenty of opportunities to inject humor to lighten the mood. When you have Plum telling the story and the usual cast of friends and family that Stephanie is saddled with, there is never a lack of weird, goofy and downright bizarre happenings.

I literally could NOT put the book down until it was finished. So the lights at the Abbott's were on until around 4 a.m. and I went to sleep with a grin on my face.

Now I'm just waiting for the first of the double digits! Thanks, Ms. Evanovich! Keep 'em coming!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Please keep them coming
Review: As with all of Janet Evanovich's books, you are torn between reading as fast as you can to find out what happens and reading very slowly to make it last. This was a lot of fun, but a little too short, and it didn't include enough Grandma humor. Still, I can hardly wait for the next installment.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Yet!
Review: "To the Nines" is Evanovich's best yet novel in the Stephanie Plum series. I've read all of her others and I was so excited when it FINALLY came out. I sat down to read it and finished it in about 3 hours. I just couldn't put it down. More sparks between Stephanie and Ranger, the heat between those two could set the pages on fire, but Joe is steadily becoming a better influence over Stephanie and we hope it stays that way. Maybe they'll eventually *gasp* get married, they could probably do that without bloodshed or Grandma Bella's visions of many bambinos. No more diets for Lula, and Ranger's G-men army need to watch out when Steph and Lula are on the prowl.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: ...
Review: I was so looking forward to this book, waiting for weeks for it to come out, only to be very disapointed. The best analgoy I can think of is waiting for a big juicy steak and getting a dried out 3 oz. hamberger patty. Ms. Evanavich has created some of the most appealing characters around, but they didn't do anything in this book. Grandma Metzer behaved herself throughout, and Ranger and Morelli got along. Maybe the formula was boring for the author, but I still think there's a lot of miles in old Stephanine. I really hope the next one is a ten.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: good enough to keep me up past 36 hour shift
Review: Incredible book - Evanovich continues to provide significant plot details that advance the series while tantalizing us with the relationships are the meat of the series - e.g. Morelli, Ranger, Grandma, Valerie, Mom and everyone else who Evanovich has managed to include in this book. This is a rich series as regards the relationships of individuals, which distinguishes it from much of the mystery genre.

Bravo Janet Evanovich!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: AWESOME...as usual
Review: The worst part about this book? It ENDS!

If you haven't read the Stephanie Plum series...get #1 and start! These books are simply several hundred pages of fun!

For those that love the series, rest assured this book is not showing any signs of slowing down. Janet is still capable of bringing new laughs to regular characters that seem more like old friends than fictional people. This book Stephanie isn't losing cars, but Ranger's men seem to not be so lucky when it comes to tagging along. A refreshing idea that is sure to leave you laughing. And look out cuz Lulas on a diet!!

9 Books and I still can't decide who is the better man...Joe or Ranger!? Either way, I'll never tire of the diaglogue involving either of em....if only they were real! LOL

Now if only I didn't have to wait a year for #10 :(

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: still good, fun read.
Review: I really love Janet Evanovich's series but I have to say I was really disappointed with Hard Eight, feeling that it lacked something. Evanovich seems back on track with this book, but it's still missing something that the previous titles had and it seems to be in the character of Stephanie. But I find Lula to be much more enjoyable (she needs her own book!) and there definately wasn't enough Grandma Mazur! However, I read this book in a weekend and it was worth the money spent. It was funny and cute and I think that those fans of the series will not be unhappy.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not as good as the other 8
Review: I was very excited when this book came out. I made my husband rush out and get it. Unfortunatly, this book was dissapointing. One of my favorite character Grandma Mazur hardly makes an appearance in this book. There is a lot more sexual innuendo which I found unecessary to the plot. In this book, Lulu was the most amusing character and Stephanie Plum was pretty dull and the scrapes she kept getting into were very predictable. Overall, the book is probbaly worth reading if you are a big fan, but save your money and check it out of the library.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: To The Nines A Winner
Review: This book might be the best in the series. I couldn't put it down. I keep waiting for the series to have a book that's not as good, but this wasn't it. It is flat out laugh out loud. It has all the normal side characters, Like Grandma and Lula, who is on a pretty interesting diet. It also has Stephanie being stalked by a pretty imaginative killer. The tension is still there between Joe and Ranger, but it's interesting how they work together when it's important. This is a can't miss best seller.
