This series continues to be hilarious. And surprising with good mysteries. I will 100% continue along for a good chuckle.

4 Stars *Another funny adventure from America’s favorite inept bountyhunter* Evanovich had found her groove by the fourth book in this series, but hadn’t yet worn that groove out. As always, the story is humorous and fun to read. Stephanie is pretty much the epitome of a “hot mess.” Although the plot is interesting, it does frequently take a backseat to Stephanie’s personal life in this one. We get to meet Sally Sweet and see more of Stephanie’s nemesis Joyce Barnhardt as well as characters from the previous books. There was one thread that wasn’t resolved, but I still thoroughly enjoyed this easy, relaxing read.
