Stephanie Plum Series

I became hooked on the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich about a year ago. These books are currently in the news due to “One for the Money” being made into a movie.

Honestly, I had a little trouble getting into the first few books. I started to get the audiobooks and I love hearing these read by Loralei King. She does an amazing job of bringing the characters to life.

I love the characters Evanovich has created. I'm drawn into the relationships, especially between Stephanie, Morelli and Ranger. Each character is lovable in their own way.

After the first few books I have mostly lost interest in the “mysteries”. They have all become too similar. Lots of bombs, fires, shootings and break-ins. At some point they all begin to run together.

I like that the main female character is independent and hilarious. It’s good to read a story where the woman has two love interests and that’s ok! However, I’m rooting for Morelli to completely win her over. I keep reading the series to see what happens between the characters, I'm bored by the rest at this point.
