Janet Evanovich

I loved this one. It had me laughing hard. I come to expect anything, but it still caught me by surprise. Lula having her "king kong of thongs" and meat diet was the best. Also, the stuff Stephanie got involved in was more serious and would have liked a little more emotion in her fear.

I can't get enough Stephanie Plum! This was by far the best since the beginning; the plot was well-evolved, the characters were hilarious (especially Lula but that's a given), and the ending was fast- paced and exciting. Can't wait for # 11!

Another great Evanovich book! These are slightly addicting and I go through them damn quickly! reading about stephanie almost dying has been making these books interesting. I can't wait until morelli knocks her up though!

I read the first few books and found them funny. After similar plots, I began to get bored.

Plot or Character Driven: A mix

This was maybe my favorite one of these, to date. The situations are still ridiculous - but, honestly, it's fun, so I don't mind. Stephanie was a little more believable as a character this time around, which is why I probably liked it more. I also liked Lula more as a character in this one - which I hope means she's going to continue to grow and develop as a character.
Grandma Mazur, as ever, is my favorite and we did not get as much of her in this installment. So, demerit one star.
Hopefully this bodes well for the series.

TriBro, Fisher Cat, Samuel Singh, Valerie gives birth, Stephanie moves in with Morelli again and gives Valerie & co. her apartment to use. 

This one had the usual Stephanie fun adventures with a few different bits thrown in for variety.

I enjoyed reading this book very much. It has been a long time since I read the last Stephanie Plum novel, but I believe that the writing and storyline had significantly improved as the series progresses.
