I love the Stephanie plum between the numbers novels. Diesel is such a unique character and they always seem to have Briggs in them, too. I was glad that Morelli was almost nonexistant because he is a little too stuffy for my taste. Grandma Mazur was a great main character adding her opinion on everything and I almost wanted to agree with her. Connie got more action in this book and her character really seemed to develop. Lula was Lula and as funny as ever. She is always so shocking. I know Morelli and Stephanie's mom act like Stephanie is shocking, but Lula is the one who makes me gasp. What happens in Stephanie's apartment building elevator is laugh out loud funny. (Read that part to my nine year old son and he loved it, too.) Thankfully, Ranger gets a few lines, but I wish he showed up more. Tank gets a little part, too. (show less)

No, it's a flop!

Eh. Not nearly as uproariously funny as the usual Stephanie Plum fare. And what is the deal with Diesel? He is so uninteresting compared with Ra... (show more)

  Janet's back! I really enjoyed reading this book. I read it in 24 hours...couldn't put it down...and laughed constantly through it. I love the Stephanie Plum series, but I'd been disappointed by Fearless Fourteen, which came out last year. I had expected more from it. I went into reading Plum Lucky expecting it to be no more enjoyable than book 14, since the between-the-numbers books typically do not include much action from Ranger (who is my fave!), but it was very very good.

Diesel is always a treat. I thought that Rex (Stephanie's pet hamster) was conspicuous in his absence, though. He wasn't even mentioned. What happened to him? Definitely worth a read for all you Plum fans and worth a read for even those who are new to the series and to Evanovich. (show less)

  I would say that this may be my least favorite of the series. Don't get me wrong - the book has it's funny moments. If you love the series, you will enjoy this book. However, this felt like she had a brief story line and some new characters to which she added all her old lines about explaining the current characters - and she missed some great opportunities for even more fun. As Jennifer Murphy Williams points out below - Rex the hamster is missing - and what could have been more funny th... (show more)

As Jennifer Murphy Williams points out below - Rex the hamster is missing - and what could have been more funny than a scene where Rex meets Doug, the horse? I think this might have been the perfect (and only?) opportunity to have Rex do more than be cute and eat. I book was also missing the usual angst and heat that comes from Stephanie and her many men - everyone is getting a little too complacent. (show less)
