I purchased this book because my Book Club decided to read Janet Evanovich's books. I had read One For the Money, Full Bloom and Full Scoop. I really liked them all. I knew that the rest of her books would have to be just as good. For those who are unfamiliar with her books, there is the Stephanie Plum series that features Stephanie the bounty hunter and her adventures. Currently there are 12 books in the Plum series. There is the "Full" series that are centered around Jamie and Max Holt in the town of Beaumont, South Carolina. Each of these books have reoccuring characters, but each book features a new adventure for one of the citizens. I believe there are 6 in this series. These books are written with Charlotte Hughes and are rereleases. I am not familiare with the Metro series, but from previous experience, I would say they would have to be good. As I write this, I have purchased up to number 11 in the Plum series and am in hot pursuit of number 12. I also have acquired the 6 books in the Full series.Read full review
I love JE. Shes a great writer, and she knows what her readers want. Great details, characterization, plot and suspense. Just TRY to guess what's next :) . I'm 20 years old, and the first time I read her book To The Nines, I was about 16. So teens, adults, even men (I got TTN's from my step-dad), can definitely like this book and her other books. This one has a 30 yr old woman who suffers from the economy by losing her great job and becomes a bounty hunter in her hometown area. Romance, suspense and pretty funny dialogue.
This is light, fun, take you mind off your worries reading. Stephanie Plum is a riot. I actually laugh out loud while reading about these wonderfully over the top characters and the predicaments they get into. I anxiously await every new "number" as they are published. If you are looking for "War and Peace" you'll be disappointed. But if you are interested in a good belly laugh Envanovich has found the recipe for writing stories and characters that are imaginative and quirky. Though each story stands on its own it's really better to read them in order.
Book was in excellent condition and at bargain price. Delivered quicker than expected.Purchased as a gift for my granddaughter. She loved movie based on first book. I have previously read these 3 books & loved them enough to read entire series.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
if you can't buy one for the money two for the dough three to get deadly in separate books then 3 plums in one is for you. oh i have never laughed out loud while reading a book before. i think it's book one or two i'm not sure, but i will never forget the scene in the dinning room with grandma and steph's blind date, oh and the scene in the funeral parlor with the finger. sometimes it's good to read these books when you are feeling blue because they make you feel better.
