A review by thekeytotheancientlore
One For The Money by Janet Evanovich

dark funny lighthearted mysterious fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

One of the things I like best about this is it's funny without being as ridiculous as some of the other books in the series, plus Steph put in some effort to develop skills for her new job and planned to continue to do so. It's too bad she doesn't really follow through in the ensuing books (at least not to the best of my recollection). (Of course I quit reading the series several years ago and don't know if she eventually does follow through. I guess I'll find out when I eventually get around to reading the ones that came out after I quit the series.)
