Janet Evanovich

3.55 AVERAGE


I am a HUGE Janet Evanovich fan, but I have to say I found this book to be very disappointing. The entire plot felt forced. It was as if she threw together the book just to have a 20th title in this series.

More of the same, but if that's what you go into it expecting, it's quite fun still. This kept me interested till the very end.

3.5 stars. I love this series but Stephanie really needs to make a decision between her men. I hate to say it but I think it might be time for the series to wrap up.

Same old Stephanie Plum.

I've read this before. At least 19 times. I wish Stephanie would poop or get off the pot already.

I'm so tired of this series. Tired of the never changing characters, of the recycled plot lines, and of fried chicken.

How much did I not care about this book? So much that I almost fell asleep while listening to it today--while I was on a treadmill. I had to turn it off and find a different book before I caused myself injury. I'll read the next one at some point, but am in no rush to see what doesn't happen next.

the usual fare for Stephanie.

I still don't understand why does Evanovich squeezes in an animal into each Plum story. Mostly they serve nothing other than adding an extra layer of silliness to the story that it can do without.
