Lean Mean Thirteen by Janet Evanovich
4.0

I waver back and forth a bit with these books. I always eat them up like popcorn but sometimes the on-again, off-again, will-they, won't-they relationships Stephanie has with Morelli and Ranger irritate me. At other times, I just take it for a bit of entertaining fantasy and roll with it. I was able to appreciate the idea of Stephanie having two smokin' hot men at her beck and call this time and just enjoyed the mental imagery and humorous flirtation.

Stephanie's implausible talent for finding and getting into trouble always amuses me and this book was no different. Lula and Grandma Mazur were in fine form. Stephanie's minor FTAs (failures to appear) always provide comic relief and this batch was incredibly over the top.

Pick this series up for a funny, light mystery to read by the pool or between heavier reads.
