Bob the dog is still around. Mooner, the dejected stoner is still around—although his roommate seems to have turned up missing and Mooner just might have to move in with Stephanie for protection when the bodies start showing up. Mooner’s roommate, by the way is called Dealer because, despite his penchant for administering your standard cocaine derived drugs to the neighborhood, he supplies vast amounts of Metamucil to the senior citizens and an incredible discount. So you can see why all hell br...

2.5 starsI didn’t think this series could disappoint me but there’s probably a first time for everything. 🥲Hello Janet Evanovich? Joe Morelli doesn’t deserve this book. It was fun how Stephanie was confused and Morelli had to win her over in High Five/Hot Six: right then her and Joe were kind of casual from my point of view. Everything changed in this seventh book. They are engaged but Steph keeps making out with Ranger and never says a thing to Morelli or even feels guilty about it. The only ti...

Truth is, I think naked men are kind of strange looking what with their doodles and ding-dong hanging loose like they do. Nevertheless, there's the curiosity thing. I guess it's another one of those car crash experiences, where you feel compelled to look even if you know you'll be horrified. And, this is the mindset of the girl who has two major alpha men after her? I'm not saying that I disagree with the awkward boy-parts thing, but Stephanie has to be the most un-sexy girl I have ever read.

This is a right book at the right time thing for me, so yeah, I'm giving this sparkly little comedy mystery four stars because it took my mind off of things and it thoroughly entertained me. I'd almost like to give it five stars. I'd also like to buy Janet Evanovich flowers. It's been a while since I read this silly, fun series about Stephanie Plum, a New Jersey bounty hunter with lots of pluck and questionable job skills. I had quit reading these books a while back because they were getting a l...

When I began reading my first Stephanie Plumb book [ One for the money ] I didn't know quite what to expect. However I very quickly discovered it was an absolute gem, and as I read more and more of Janet Evanovich's books about the misfit bounty hunter and as the characters evolved and became more and more interesting [ grandma Mazur is something else isn't she; likewise Lulu is one hell of a girl ] they got better and better, and I have now lost count of the times I have cried laughing aloud as...

*** 4.35 ***A buddy read with OhWell at BB&BThis series is hilarious! Hands down, one of the funniest I have ever read, that keep on with the hilarity even 7 books into the series. We are already very well acquainted with Stephanie's family, and the consensus is that everyone needs a grandma Mazur in their life, just for giggles! Stephanie's mom is obviously going through "the change", but is doing anything and everything to deny it. And the poor Mr. Plum is hanging on to sanity by the tips of h...

OK I didn't add reviews to the last several books in this series because I was out of town (stuck in a snowstorm back east)& didn't get to my computer until today. I made two trips to Barnes & Noble while we were back east because I couldn't wait to get more of these books. This series in hilarious!!! Very quick reads too - perfect for passing the time in an airport with nothing else to do. I can't decide who my favorites are yet - either Grandma Mazur or Lulu. They both crack me up. I had sever...

Evanovich went above and beyond when she created Seven Up! This book is filled with missing friends, death, a kidnapped Grandma Mazur and … mud wrestling? Ha! Stephanie Plum and Lula are my heroes. They really make me appreciate the diversity of friendships that I have. Even when my life decides to go a little strange, I can always count on the loved ones in my life to help me giggle. Stephanie: For the better part of my childhood, my professional aspirations were simple-I wanted to be an interg...

Seven Up Janet Evanovich, Oh hell this is so funny, chuckle a minute, imagine Sopranos as a sit com, well this is it. You got murder and mayhem guns, mutilated bodies, gangsters but weirdly I always seem to find myself with some warped manic grin. Has memorable characters Stephanie the sink or swim, tougher than she believes she is, full on self doubter but with a out going spunky attitude, She's the star character Bounty hunter with poise and some weird senses of graces, then her school friend

It's no secret that I love this series, Stephanie's antics and her crazy family never fail to make me giggle and these books are the perfect thing to pick up when you're having a bad day and just need something to make you smile.You'd think that Stephanie might be getting the hang of this bounty hunter thing by now but unfortunately for her she's just as terrible as ever. Even when she's up against a pensioner things don't go to plan for our plucky heroine and her sidekick Lula. I swear these tw...

Yes, I read book 6 and 7 in one day . . . I am on medical leave. It is the weekend. These books are my entertainment. So, book 7 finds us looking for an old retired Mob guy who may have killed a kind old lady. Ranger ups the heat on Stephanie by making a deal with her . . . if she wants his help it is going to cost her. Stephanie attempts to entertain the wedding proposal and out of fear of giving her mother, who comes unglued when perfect daughter Valerie returns home after her marriage crumble...

I’m annoyed.SPOILER ALERT The romance has frustrated me from the beginning and I wish it didn’t exist. But it’s here so I’m going to judge.I love a good love triangle. However it annoys the hell out of me when one of the guys is turned into or does a jerk move to justify the girl going to the other man.Joe acts totally out of character and I saw it coming. And when it happened, I rolled my eyes.I wasn’t surprised by the fluffy ending and feel no rush like the last fluffy to read the next book.I

Eh.Not sure I'm able to tell these sequels apart.Oh, yes, this one is the one where Stephanie cheats on Joe.(I did not appreciate the way Janet decided to make this book stand out. Down with the Ranger, Morreli for the win!)

This was another roll-on-the-floor-laughing-helplessly entry in the Stephanie Plum series. Stephanie's after another ancient mob-connected FTA who seems to have an uncanny ability to disappear even when she seemingly has him in her grasp. The plot revolves around the disappearance of a mob guy's heart. It was removed after his recent death and thereby hangs a tale. Amidst it all, Stephanie's perfect sister turns up with her two kids, in from California where her perfect husband has just taken al...

I may be sized more like Lula than Stephanie, but Lycra leggings and a rugby top - my version of her spandex shorts and hockey top - are a comfortable combination I think I'd been neglecting of late, so thanks to Ms Evanovich for reminding me of them.To the book. Glad to see Dougie & Mooner are still around - not being a dog-lover, I'm less certain about Bob - and a big hello to once perfect Valerie and her children. OK, so the latter have nothing to do with the main storyline of smuggled cigare...

What I like the most about Stephanie Plum series is the continuity of characters; Grandma Mazur, Lula, Morelli, Ranger and Stephanie, Stephanie's mother and father. But storywise, I get the feeling that all books are the same. This one was however a bit less entertaining than the previous ones.
