    Default Help! I am hooked on Evanovich's Stephanie Plum Series

    Some of you recommended them in a thread about two weeks ago. I have read all the numbered ones, plus 4 of the between the numbers, and am holding my breath until Nov 22, when the next one comes out. I preordered so I would get it ASAP. I think I have spent my fabric budget this month for all the books. I have a Kindle so I get them immediately, love that feature. I have decided to read some again until I get the next one. I'll probably laugh as much the second time around, as I did the first.

    Reading has kept me off the board and of course no sewing.

    I love her family, Lulu is a hoot, and I drool over Ranger and Morelli. The characters that come into her life are hilarious. I love the way she explains things about living in Jersey.

    I think my favorite character is Lulu, who is yours?

    And I think she should stick with Morelli.

    OMG, I am constantly laughing out loud when I read her books. Started on her set of books with the witches and warlocks, I would not recommend, not as funny.

    I really like Susan Wittig Alberts books. China Bayles mysteries.

    Plum fun! This is a great series that I've been trying to get all the books for. My husband turned me onto her series - he liked the bright bright covers and I have really enjoyed them. I still think Ranger is a lot of fun - Morelli seems a bit too taken for granted - too comfortable - to be fully appreciated by Stephanie. Ranger seems to be like her alter ego - what she would like to be if she could ever break free of her family, which she will never do.

    Looking forward to the next one!

    I like her grandmother. I hope I'm that feisty when I'm her age, although I might skip the "viewings". When I'm 80, I may take up drinking...that way people won't think I'm senile, they'll think I'm drunk!

    I like them too! Fun series! I think Ranger would be my fave- he just gets things done, and folks don't mess with him for long.

    Love the Plum books! Lula is definitely my fav - and I'm way in the Morelli camp too! But I think I could be swayed over into the RAnger camp very easily!
