Cyndi T. (Wildflower) reviewed Fun Read To Pass The Time on 6/26/2009 + 126 more book reviews

I've read them all....from number one, to the in-between books, the mini "Last Peep", and now "Finger Lickin' Fifteen". I've listened to them all on audio, stood for hours in line to meet Ms, Evanovich a couple years ago, and even have a, "I (heart) Ranger" bumper sticker on my car.

I have really enjoyed the series from beginning to end. Yes, the characters are getting too predictable and the laugh-out-loud moments are way fewer than they used to be, but like a good light hour-long comedy on TV, these books are fun to read and picking up this book was like stopping by an old friend's house for coffee and a sweet roll.

The book was silly at times (c'mon--a hot dog outfit? I was seeing Justin Timberlake from "Saturday Night Live" when I read that part of the book). The death of two Porshe Cayennes, a Ford Focus, the infamous Firebird, and Stephanie's couch (once again) was expected, and Ms. Evanovich did not disappoint with the outlandish behaviors of Lula and Grandma Mazur.

Was this her best in the series? Nope. But it was better than "Fearless Fourteen". Is the series waning? Probably. But I don't care. I will keep picking up the Plum books until Janet stops writing them. Why? Because in all honesty I am waiting for Ranger to finally get another shot. We almost had Stephanie this time. ((sigh))
