I love these book so much because I know what to expect from them. I know I'm going to get a laugh and an easy, not too gruesome murder mystery. I know people have been saying that these books are starting to become repetitive but I don't care that Stephanie hasn't made a decision between Ranger or Morelli yet because that's half the fun! I also find Lula & Stepahnie's Grandma hilarious and i never want them to change. I think that Janet Evanovich has found the perfect formula for writing an easy, fun read that there's no need to change a good thing! I also thought that there was a question left up in the air about whether Stephanie was pregnant or not, we will have to find out once nineteen is released.....

Quick and fun read. I will very likely always give 5 stars to a Stephanie Plum book.

This one WAS a bit weird. She wasn’t with Ranger OR Morelli. They were honestly not even in the book that much. I’m hoping that means we’re getting to a place where she might finally choose and move forward with one of them. Admittedly, I will probably be devastated for who she doesn’t choose. I literally love them both. However, she really does need to choose. This has gone on for so long. Unless they can agree to a reverse harem situation. That could work, right?!

Lula was my favorite part of the book, as per usual. She is probably my favorite character of the series.

The plot in this one was pretty forgettable and I am now convinced that I will read about Stephanie doing anything. She sits around making peanut butter sandwiches—literally—and I’m captivated. On to the next one!

I read and enjoyed books #1-18 and yes, I will stick around to see how it all ends, but it's well past bedtime for this series. The characters are still fun but running-joke fatigue has reached critical mass and Stephanie's romantic plight is becoming less scintillating by the adventure.

Ladies, it's time to strap on your Glocks and walk out into the sunset.

Always puts a smile on my face

I just cannot stop reading the adventures of Stephanie Plum. It always puts a smile on my face. Keep them coming! I just wish there was a bit more character development without too much drama!

The events are starting to have a cartoony feel. Like she is trying way to hard to be funny. I am just hoping the series comes to a close soon. I think the authors tunning low on juice and Stephany's story needs to come to an end.
