Seven Up (Stephanie Plum Novels (Audio))

Rating:
Summary: Disappointing to say the least
Review: The writing is as weak as the plot in this book. There are a few moments of humor found within and those are the only saving grace. Very disappointed in this book from cover to cover.

Summary: Run of the Mill
Review: This is a run of the mill Evanovich, but that does not it make it a bad book. It fits the mold well, with nothing to distinguish it from her other Plum novels.

Plum is after an elderly bail jumper and can't get the geezer, which leaves to some humorous action and some fairly funny lines from Stephanie's grandmother. There is a what appears to be a side plot with a couple of druggie high school chums that is also amusing - mostly due to the druggies. As always there is the bountiful sexual innuendo - and at times more. She's engaged but still haunted by her commando bounty-hunter colleague. Lula is her usual self, which leads to laughs. Stephanie's sister tries her hand at lesbianism, there's a lost heart - literally, etc.

You get it - the light-hearted fun escapades from Ms Evanovich and her main character, Stephanie Plum. I would suggest reading at least one of the earlier novels in this line, just to have a handle on the characters. Also, if you listen on tape, the actress reading has a terribly grating voice and accent. Reading it is the way to go - on a beach, a plane or a bus where you do not need extreme powers of conversation.
