What can we say about Stephanie Plum? Evanovich's series starring the hapless bounty hunter is now on its fourteenth installment - and it's pretty much like the rest of the series. Nothing much has changed in the Burg and I doubt it ever will. But then again, isn't that why we're still reading about Steph and her menagerie of friends and family? They're like a comfy chair, soft and welcoming, although getting a tad outdated.

I'm not going to go into the plot because, well, it really...

One word...Disappointed. Janet Evanovich books are categorized as mystery and I would say that this was a featherweight mystery at best. Missing from this book was any kind of exciting plot. There was no real antagnoist. There was no build-up to a great climax where the mystery is solved. It just limped along and then ended. I found myself bored and for the first time with a Stephanie Plum novel, putting it down and picking up another book to read. I didn't laugh out loud once while...

    14 was not the best book in the series by far but it was typical Plum fare and consistent with her past novellas. I personally am tired of the triangle so I didn't miss the lack of page time with Ranger (actually, it was quite refreshing for a change). Hopefully 15 will be better....

    I assumed I would love this book like I loved all the others, so was shocked to find that half way through the book I was getting bored! There was just no excitement, Stephanie seemed to lose her spark somehow. Not enough Ranger or Grandma Mazur to keep me interested. Lula and Tank were great as always. What is it with the way people keep breaking into Stephanie and Joe's homes?

    Did I miss something or did Stephanie make it through an entire novel and NOT lose a car? Did she still have the Zook-mobile at the end?

    It was good, not as laugh at loud as others, but more serious in subject. New characters that are a hoot, but not long lasting, I hope. Not much on Grandma Mazur and I always look forward to her antics. Very little of Ranger in this one. Maybe JE is running out of PLUM material. BUt I will still wait for the next one to read. Would also like to see more of Motor mouth, I like her character also.

    I usually rank all her Plum series as a 5 star rating, but this time she only gets 3...If you are a Plum fan...no question, you have to read this one. I did find it a bit disappointing - I feel like Evanovich bare bones'd the book a bit. I sort of feel like there will be another "between the numbers" book coming because there was something that was left open in this book, which is why it was so disappointing to me. She also lacked a lot of her usual details. It felt like she reverted back to her pre-Plum romance novel style. Don't get me wrong - I love Evanovich's Plum series so much that I will read whatever she writes.
