Books by Janet Evanovich
I should point out straight away that I have been a Stephanie Plum fan from day one and that I have read all of the books in the series with an almost equal degree of enjoyment. I don’t mind the similarities and comparative lack of development, and while I did want the love triangle resolved aroun ...

Twelve Sharp, Janet Evanovich’s twelfth Stephanie Plum novel, is light, funny, and peopled with memorable, lovable characters. Readers new to the bounty-hunting world of Plum, Morelli, and the delectable Ranger will be amused and charmed by this novel. Readers like me, however, the loyal readers o ...
Eleven on Top is silly, but since it's a Stephanie Plum mystery, silly is mandatory, so readers who want a non-silly mystery should pick up a P.D. James novel instead. Me - I like Stephanie and the gang, and I was in the mood for silliness. I found myself laughing a lot at this one. Even a kick ...
Full Bloom is a book full of silly, frequently outrageous situations and characters, but in the end these crazy situations were too much, leaving me exhausted by all the activity. It is the fifth in a series, the first of which was an expanded version by Evanovich and Hughes of a 1989 series romanc ...
I'm not wealthy enough to buy hardcover books just for fun. By the time I had my name on the list at the library for Ten Big Ones, I was 47th in line. But I was much higher on the list for the audio book, and so this review is based on listening to it over a two-day period.

I'm a Joe Morelli fan. Ranger's hot, but he's definitely no long-term bet for Stephanie Plum, New Jersey's most inept, but luckiest bounty hunter. I state my bias on the love triangle right up front, so fellow fans of the Plum series - of which To the Nines is the ninth book know where I stand.

Mary Higgins Clark has written a slim Christmas book for several years now. Last year, Jan Karon published The Mitford Snowmen and John Grisham rel ...
When I find an author I'm excited about, I always go looking for her backlist. It's a very satisfying search when an author has been prolific, but sometimes when exploring her backlist, it becomes clear that an author has evolved into a style I enjoy. In reading Janet Evanovich's re-write of her old ...

It's no secret that I was deeply disappointed in Janet Evanovich's last book, Seven Up, and I swore up and down that I was not going to read Hard Eight. No way, no sir, no how. Then I got an email asking me to review it, and well, I'm not an idiot who'd pass up a free book by a formerly-beloved aut ...

This slim paperback wouldn't have caught my attention at the library book sale had it not been for Janet Evanovich's name on it, which promised a fast-paced and hilarious story. As a fan of her enormously popular Stephanie Plum series, I never imagined coming across a book of hers that wouldn't be a ...
