Why oh why I am hyperfixating on a book series with a target audience of middle-aged women and absolutely no fandom for??

"From the look on your face, I'd say you know him."

I nodded. "Sold him a cannoli when I was in high school."

Connie grunted. "Honey, half of all the women in New Jersey have sold him their cannoli."

One for the Money by Janet Evanovich 3.5/5 ⭐️

This is definitely one of those guilty pleasure reads. The characters and situations they get into are just ridiculous lol. The characters are all pretty satirical New Jerseyan’s but I found myself laughing and enjoying the story a lot. If you’re looking for a cozy mystery series that’ll keep you entertained and laugh, but still has a bit of a gritty element, the Stephanie Plum series has it all!

Dirty Thirty by Janet Evanovich

Thanks to my library, Libby app....and it's skip the line function...I finally got to read this.

Holy Cannoli! What an ending! She is a master at cliff hangers. I'm dying here...I want to know....

I think this is my favorite one yet. Great story plot. Mrs. Plum actually kicked butt, we need more of that. Lula is so awesome. Even Bob got involved, such an adorable doggy.

I finally got my Ranger fix. I admit I fantasize about him, especially after seeing the movie. Daniel Sunjata nailed it.🔥 Anyone else fantasize about a book character, or am I just weird?🤔😏

You all are going to either love or hate this ending, depending on your point of view. I love endings like that.

If you are a Stephanie Plum fan..... are you #teamRanger or #teamMorelli?

#teamRanger!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Ok, when is the next book coming out...🤔😏🖖

Look Alive Twenty Five by Janet Evanovich Review

Plot

There's nothing like a good deli, and the Red River Deli in Trenton is one of the best. World-famous for its pastrami, cole slaw, and for its disappearing managers. Over the last month, three have vanished from the face of the earth, and the only clue in each case is one shoe that's been left behind. The police are baffled. Lula is convinced that it's a case of alien abduction. Whatever it is, they'd better figure out what's going on before they lose their new manager, Ms. Stephanie Plum.

Discussion

I'll admit, it's been a hot...10 years? Since I last read a Stephanie Plum mystery. I remembered a bit about what happened in previous novels, plus the core of Stephanie's character. I did adore Lula's shenanigans, especially when she hit someone with a frying pan.

However, I know her creativity with the sandwiches cost the deli a pretty profit- why didn't anyone put their foot down and tell her to stop wasting ingredients? Other than that, I loved her character.

Something that was new to me was the love triangle between Stephanie, Morelli, and Ranger. Like most characters caught in a love triangle, Stephanie finds herself at a crossroads- should she choose between detective, stable family man Morelli, or the overprotective, enticing, and private security badass Ranger? Personally, why not both for a change?? I'm just kidding...or am I?

"You owe me!"

"Why do I owe you?"

"I caught your no good cousin."

"Yeah and in the process you burned down a funeral home, damaged thousands of dollars of government property."

"Well if you are going be picky about it....."

Game on is the twenty-eighth book in the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich. It is, however, the first I have read. The series has long been on my list to try, and this book does not disappoint. I was apprehensive about not starting with book 1, but I was able to enjoy this one regardless. It feels like it is likely a reliable series when you are in the mood for a pick-me-up adventure. 

Review for NetGalley.

Book 60 of the 50 book challenge. Going Rogue by Janet Evanovich. This is the 29th in the Stephanie Plum mysteries and it’s still a lot of fun. I really enjoyed the book. Stephanie is always a mess and certain parts are predictable but that’s why I love them.

The literal worst part of the latest Stephanie Plum novel is Herbert. Prove me wrong. I want someone to knock this guy's face through the back of his head.
