Rating: Summary: Low brow farce Review: This is NOT a comic thriller mystery. It is farce first and foremost with a mystery as a side element--and not an intriguing mystery at that. A waste of time, I'd have to say.
Rating: Summary: Excellent Review: This is the first book of Stephanie Plum that I read and have the two must important things that a book must have , the main story is very interesting and unpredictable and will keep you in the book all the time, the second story, her personal life will keep you laughing all the time, so you will not be bored while you read this book.

Rating: Summary: --The ninth wild and crazy ride with Stephanie Plum-- Review: TO THE NINES is another mystery adventure in the fast-paced life of Stephanie Plum, Bounty Hunter. In this story, Stephanie is living with the love of her life, Joe Morelli, but still flirting with the mysterious Ranger. Stephanie can't quite make the marriage commitment yet, but does not want to give up Morelli. Stephanie and her co-workers, Lula and Connie take a trip to Las Vegas where they are seeking Samuel Singh, an Indian man who is in violation of his bond. They meet Elvis impersonators one evening and the next day Connie shows up with a picture of herself married to one, but she can't even remember the ceremony. Lula is on a protein diet and carries pork chops and bacon around in her purse. Dogs follow her everywhere. These Stephanie Plum stories are completely outrageous and funny. The dark side of the book is the mystery man who sends Stephanie flowers as he constantly threatens to kill her. As usual, Stephanie's life is one wild and crazy ride.
Rating: Summary: strong Stephanie Plum Review: Trenton's most popular bounty hunter Stephanie Plum's finds her personal life going smoothly. She and her significant other Joe Morelli are a strong entry while she and fellow bounty hunter Ranger strike enough sparks to light up the Manhattan skyline. Her sister is hours from giving birth and remains undecided if she wants to marry her baby's father. Joe's grandmother, who isn't Stephanie's fan, keeps having visions of Joe married to some one else. Professionally, Stephanie feels under siege. Her cousin Vinnie signed a bond for Samuel Singh but his landlady says that he disappeared, leaving all his belongings, except has laptop behind. Stephanie goes to his place of business but his boss claims he was a loner without any friends. During her search for him, she gets shot at, tranquilized with a dart, and a psycho stalks her, sending roses and threatening notes. She sees a man shot and receives snuff snapshots. Morelli and Ranger do there best to protect to protect her, but Stephanie knows if she wants her life back, she must outwit the stalker. Janet Evanovich does the impossible by injecting a great deal of laugh out loud humor into a serial killer book. TO THE NINES ratchets up the heat between the heroine and the bounty hunter while showing that Stephanie can stay in a relationship with her true love Joe. The fast paced plot is loaded with lots of tension, sexual and life threatening, while the perpetrator is hidden in plain sight. The more one reads a Stephanie Plum novel the more one wants to sit in a corner with the next book. Harriet Klausner
Rating: Summary: Way to go...This is another winner! Review: When it comes to Stephanie, I'm always gonna love it! There's just no getting around it. Stephanie Plum is always a great read and "To the Nines" delivers the goods and will keep you laughing. Be prepared for more bodies than usual and a tightly plotted story that actually takes Steph and her friends and co-workers, Lulu and Vinnie's office manager Connie, off on an adventurous trip to Las Vegas. (Ranger can't make the trip 'cause he's in trouble with the whole state of Nevada.) It's just possible that Stephanie's merry band of lunatics may cause a riot or two when they meet up with the Elvis impersonators. And Lulu's big purse could get them arrested for B & E before they can get out of town. Back home, the Plum household is filled to bursting and about to get an additional member. Stephanie's mother is praying for a miracle and her father is having to wait in line for the bathroom, what with all the traffic. Valerie is eating for two and is very conflicted about what to do with her life. Joe Morelli's Grandmother is having visions that involve poor Stephanie and a coffin. And Stephanie is having another hair crises, not to mention "fun with fast food". In other words, it's business as usual for a Stephanie Plum novel! You'll giggle and groan and laugh until your eyes tear up. And when it's finished, the wait will begin for number 10! Enjoy!
