My first Janet Evanovich novel and I'd definitely read another one.

I know some don't like the first person point of view, which is why I try to note its use in reviews, but I for one love it when it's used well, because a really distinctive, characterful voice can often float you above even mediocre plots. That's the case with Evanovich's Stephanie Plum. She makes ...

This book (the first in a series of 15 so far) and its’ author are surrounded by hype – I believed the hype and bought the book (instead of borrowing it from the library), I’m not saying it’s a bad book, it’s just not as “spectacular” as some reviews claimed it was. I will definitely read the rest ...

The plot line is good and the story is set within a reasonable time limit (a coup...

One for the Money is a surprisingly plausible story about Stephanie Plum, a pretty average woman who loses her job and ends up becoming a bounty hunter. Sounds crazy, right? What makes it work is that she’s not instantly good at it. Her bumbling mishaps and witty commentary throughout are both hila...
