Summary: Keep 'em coming!
Review: I just finished reading, Seven Up, the latest Stephanie Plum adventure. I don't know how Janet E. thinks of the funny scenarios, but she's done it again. Grandma Mazur is sharp as ever even though she doesn't get the lid up on a closed casket this time. The "thing" between Stephanie and Joe or Ranger continues to sizzle to keep it interesting. I can read a book or two a day and Plum is as funny as it gets. This is my number #1 favorite author, but Evanivich needs to type faster. One book a year doesn't quench my thirst for more.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Two Thumbs Up!
Review: Once again Evanovich has taken a day out of my life and made it a good one. Stephanie is up to her usual in the newest book in her series. All of my favorite people were there too. From Lulu to Mooner. I laughed out loud many times and shake my head at the fix this girl always seems to get into with her automobile. Ranger and Morelli, two men who I think could sit on my doorstep anytime. Ranger is just too smooth for words. Once again the ending is cut short but, I will just have to wait another year to see what really happened. The only thing that disappoints me is that a year is way too long to have to wait to be with these people again. Eight is a date that I can't wait to happen!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Loved it, but now I'm MAD!
Review: I love the Stephanie Plum series and this book is a worthy addition to the series, with all the mayhem and hilarity I've come to expect. The interplay between Stephanie and her family gets better and better, and the evolution of the Steph-Morelli relationship is fun to watch.... If you've read the rest of the Plum series, then you must have this book to keep the story going and it's worth it.... If you haven't read any of the Plum series yet, go back to the beginning or at least book #3 - Three to Get Deadly. If you start with this one you'll miss out on a whole lot of good stuff. Enjoy. It's a great series. Steph is a great character. I just hope the cliffhanger thing dies a swift death before I can't stand to read about her exploits anymore.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Yeah, it had Laughs
Review: I must agree with the other reviewer: this book did have laughs but it is nowhere even NEAR the first three books in this series. I was no fan of Four to Score, Hot Six and now Seven-Up. The marketing ploy with the cliffhanger at the end is ridiculous. I'm afraid that this will be my last book. Also, I don't care for the direction she is going with this series, this love triangle between Morelli and Ranger needs to stop. What started out as a mystery series has started out into something else entirely and I do not care for it. Happy reading to those who have read something else while I wasted my time reading this. I highly recommend that you WAIT to buy this book in paperback. The best books in this series were the first three, and High five. That is it. I had such high hopes....such high expectations.....don't waste your money.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Thank God for Janet Evanovich
Review: Thank you Janet Evanovich for creating this wonderful series of books. Seven Up is right up there with the rest of the books in the series. A great mix of the characters we've come to know and love as well as a new bunch of wackos to keep the series going. I only hope in the next book Evanovich resolves the love triangle between Stephanie, Morelli and Ranger.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Seven Up, is up to par.....
Review: I thought this book was up to the standards set by Ms. Evanovich. True some of the other books may have had more moments of out and out humor, but this one I felt gave us a lot of interaction between Steph and Morelli. A lot more than in previous books. I think Steph is growing in each new installment as are the rest of the more major characters. My only moment of anxiety came with the last line of the book. Once again Ms. Evanovich has left us hanging, which I know is a great marketing tool but the fact that we now have to wait a whole year is more than a little frustrating! I would recommend this series to just about anyone who likes to read-and I truly envy anyone who has not read them and would now get to sit down and start with One For the Money and go on to Seven Up. A Stephanie Plum feast...what fun!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another great adventure for the Jersey girl
Review: I eagerly awaited it's arrival, showed up at my local bookstore on release day and finished it in one night. I love this series! I can't wait for 8! I laugh out loud and always close the book wanting more.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "Seven Up" will be another hit for Evanovich
Review: As usual, Stephanie Plum, Lula, Joe Morelli, Ranger and Grandma Mazur are back in action. Like her previous best sellers, this is an enjoyable book. You will laugh out loud at the predicaments into which Stephanie stumbles. Another clever ending will make readers awaiting number 8. Congratulations to Janet Evanovich for another great book in the series. A suggestion: read the book, the reader of the unabridged audiobook does an extremely poor job, especially compared to the audiobooks of the earlier books in the series.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Laughing to the altar--almost
Review: I laughed out loud at the wise cracking Steph and her zany gang. I think I laughed more this time. Bob and his bathroom habits never fail to amuse--and this time there is a howlingly funny scene or two at the home of the nasty nemesis Joyce. Steph's mom is so much more real this time, and she seems to be developing her own individuality. You can see that Steph actually is her daughter. I liked the hot love scenes with Morelli--this time they don't all end in interuptus, so to speak. But, I was disappointed at the ending. I hate to think Steph might do what it seems she will. Oh, no. Team Ranger will be happy. Can't wait until next June.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Plum Fun
Review: I had to give this book five stars--even though the ending leaves you in killer suspence, just like the last two books. No other books make me laugh out loud or shake my head in disbelief like the Stephanie Plumb series. Who else could have such bad but good luck? After all it's tough to chose between Joe Morelli and Ranger (we should all be so "unlucky.)

If you are worried that you don't have time to read this book- stop worrying, it took me slightly over 24 hours (yes, I work.) It's easy to read and you don't want to put it down because you want to find out what happens with Grandma Mazeur, where Dougie and Mooner are, if Bob the dog will really eat a couch, what Ranger's next move is, and how far will the wedding actually progress. Not to worry, it all turns out good with all the usual (ruined cars, Steph's mom ironing, her apartament getting broken into), and unusual stuff, which I won't tell here in this review, becaue that's what makes the book so much fun (smile.)...
