For the first time, I bought a Janet Evanovich in an e-book format rather than an old-fashioned book with pages. Because I own actual books for the rest of the series, and because I am a little OCD, I will probably pick up a hard copy of this one when it hits the bargain bin.
I really liked this book. Janet Evanovich makes me laugh. Rarely does a Stephanie Plum novel disappoint me (with the possible exception of #16). The plots in the series are similar and the antics of the characters are familiar from one book to the next, but each one still seems fresh to me. If you make me laugh, I will be your fan forever, and these books make me laugh. Thank you Janet Evanovich for Stephanie Plum.
In
Smokin' Seventeen, Stephanie's mom, anxious for her to get married, gets tired of waiting for Stephanie to choose Ranger or Morelli and takes matters in her own hands by setting Stephanie up with a man that she considers good marriage material. Mayhem ensues.
Speaking of Ranger and Morelli, how is it that Janet Evanovich writes these two characters in such a way that I am just as torn as Stephanie? The novel ends with (spoiler alert!) Stephanie finally making her choice, although we have to wait until Explosive Eighteen to find out who is her soulmate. Somehow I think Janet Evanovich will find a way to keep us hanging. Would we really want Stephanie to make her choice anyway?
If you have a Nook, you might be interested in this: Barnes & Noble is offering almost 60 e-books at a low price for the summer. It is a very eclectic list, including the Boxcar Children, Max Lucado, and lots of novels. By the way, if you have a Kindle instead of a Nook, check the Amazon site, because a lot of times the low prices come from the publishers and they offer it in all e-book formats. Happy reading!
I am so excited to be reading Ann Coulter's latest book, Demonic: How the Liberal Mob Is Endangering America
. Ann writes with an intelligence and biting wit, and I am unabashedly, unreservedly a fan. I recommend any of her books...they all make me think, and this one is opening my eyes in a new way to some of the tactics used by the left and how they truly are endangering the American way of life.
