4/5 stars
I picked up One for the Money in high school and promptly binged my way through the rest of the series that was released at the time. Every year, I eagerly wait for the new book in this series. Despite the fact that these books typically have the same plot—more or less—they are addicting and so fun to read. They are like the potato chips in the book world—so light and fun and easy to work your way through entirely.
I have tried to get into Janet Evanovich’s other series to limited success—but there’s no Lula! Or Grandma Mazur!!
Anyways, I read Dirty Thirty in one sitting on my Dirty Thirtieth birthday—so that’s pretty fun! I loved all the Bob scenes! He’s definitely a fave character of mine!
Most notable quotes that had me lol’ing:
“I didn’t have any antihistamine, but I found some Tic Tacs. I think they’re helping.”
“Maybe you had a panic attack.”
“No way. People of my persuasion don’t get panic attacks,” Lula said.
“What’s your persuasion?”
“I’m big and bold. I used to be Presbyterian, but I decided to change over when I was in high school.”
“So big and bold is like a religion?”
“You bet your ass,” Lula said. “It’s a belief, you see what I’m saying?”
Here I am, eagerly waiting the 31st book!

I loved this book filled with funny but also tense moments and even a little bit of romance that keeps you wondering what Stephanie will do next! I’m planning to go back and start the series from book 1 to learn more about how she got to where she was in this book.
