The barbecue sauce hits the ceiling - literally! - in this fifteenth installment of the Stephanie Plum series.Lula witnesses the murder of a celebrity chef. She enters a cooking contest to catch the murderers and claim the $1 million reward. Ranger needs help solving a breach within his security company. He recruits Stephanie to work at Rangeman again. Ready. Set. Mystery!***** SPOILER *****NO ROMANCE in this one. Nothing. Nada. Zip. I needed my cupcake fix and am highly disappointed I didn'tSo what's with Evanonvich's sudden obsession with farts? And why is it that only one of her characters performs this most human of functions? It seems like on every third page of this book Lula lets go another big one. Always Lula. Obviously, it is supposed to be hilarious. Now if RANGER let go a big one, that would be truly hilarious! Oh, I forgot. Ranger is perfect. He doesn't fart.And herein lies my problem with this book. Yes, it is another quick, funny trip through the whacked-out landscape
This wasnt my favorite Stephanie Plum novel and its hard to pinpoint why. The plot and subplots didnt weave together; there were things happening chronologically at the same time, but they didnt have intertwining themes. The cookoff story arc was the most fun. Stephanie, Grandma and Lula were involved, and a new character I liked (Larry the Fireman) was vividly painted, but he seemed underutilized to me.Im getting sick of the Stephanie/Morelli/Ranger triangle. I found it unrealistic that
This book was more about Lula than Stephanie but it's fine by me 'coz it did not lack anything in the humor department. The storyline, though...can't say the same for it. It seemed too haphazard and oddly paced most of the times.These books are highly entertaining nonetheless and I shall read the next one soon. :D
Stephanie Plum is after the bad guys again. Lulu is a witness to a decapitation and the killers are after her. Stephanie and Joe Morelli are not together. Ranger has asked Stephanie for help on a case. There are cars blown up, all sorts of fires and the usual.mayhem that makes this series so wonderful!
I am not sure I will continue with this series. Nothing original in the last 5 or 6 years. Stephanie still doesn't have her act together, she still can't commit, she still has her cars blown up. It is getting VERY tiring. Too much of a formula story. Very disappointing.
Book Review 4 of 5 stars to Finger Lickin' Fifteen, the 15th book in the Stephanie Plum mystery series, written by Janet Evanovich and published in 2009. Evanovich packed a lot of action into this installment, covering more than usual in Stephanie's crazy life. To start off, she's moonlighting for Ranger to help him figure out who's stealing from his business. Not for nothing, and though she may be getting better a bounty hunter and detective, how can Ranger not solve this on his own? And who
