A review by judyward
Metro Girl by Janet Evanovich

3.0

This is the first Janet Evanovich book that I read rather than listen to on audio and I must admit that, while I liked it, I prefer to listen to her books. I chose this book because I knew that I would like it (because of previous experience with the author) and because I was spending hours at the hospital with my father, I knew that I could pick it up and put it down without losing the thread of the story. The story did not disappoint. Instead of Stephanie Plum in New Jersey, we had much the same type of character, Alexandra Barnaby, but in Baltimore, Maryland. However, the action in the book takes place in Miami, South Beach, Key West, Naples, Florida, and a deserted island off the coast of Cuba. Lots of action, lots of snappy one-liners, and lots of jeopardy. But all in fun. I think that I'm going to like this new series.
