One for the Money Review

Janet Evanovich's first book in the Stephanie Plum series, "One for the Money" will pull you in and have you searching for book 2 *Just an FYI....you can pick up books 1-3 in "Three Plums in One" - this will save you from chomping at the bit when you finish the first one. "One for the Money" is the first in the series of fourteen currently published books. Also look out for her "Between the Numbers" series, and her Alex Barnaby series.

Having grown up near Philly, with lots of Italian friends, this book cracked me up, and reminded me of home. Stephanie is a character that you will automatically be drawn to. Picture the average girl-next-door taking on some of the toughest criminals around, and just by luck, winning. Then there are her mouth-watering love-interests, Ranger and Joe Morelli. Evanovich's one-liners will have you laughing out loud, and Grandma Mazur will have you thankful that your granny isn't THAT bad.

This easy-read is light and entertaining. Great for reading on a pool lounge, but I can't guarantee the people around you won't stare as you laugh out loud.
