 Nothing new June 24, 2009

Same story over and over and over and over and over...
Cute dialogue, blown up cars, Stephanie toying with two guys, a bit of jealous Morelli, a bit of falsely aggressive Ranger, Grandma crazy and gun-toting, Lula crazier and gun-toting.
Like I said, nothing new. Just a new title. The next book will probably be called something like and "Sixteen Sweet Rolls" and it will read exactly like this book.
How disappointing.
 Same old ... same old. June 24, 2009

Love the Stephanie Plum series! Love Janet Evanovich! But puhlease ... we need new stuff, Dearie. Maybe a new spin on an old twist (haha!)? This is a fun read, as always, but lets mix it up a bit. Definitely not enough sizzle time with Morelli or Ranger - especially Morelli, since I'm an absolute cupcake girl through and through! Although, I do enjoy some Ranger shabizzle also (who wouldn't?).
Will Stephanie ever make a decision? Do people want her to make a decision? I can't begin to comprehend who she'll pick. Can anyone?
Maybe Steph should go on a vacation - anything to get her away from the yes, fun and bizarre, but recurring theme, same old stories of these books.
Lets shake it up a bit, huh.
 Well, I liked it! June 24, 2009

I've read the series here and there with a few gaps in the middle but this had me belly-laughing all night! I suppose because I haven't read everything in order (1, then 13 and then starting over 2 & 3, then 8 and now 15) that I like them all very much. Stephanie Plum books are my guilty pleasure and while I admit there are better books in the series, this had really put the icing on the doughnut for me!

As Ranger would say, Finger Lickin' Fifteen, "doesn't disappoint." Teams Ranger and Morelli will both be happy. It's laugh-out-loud funny and that's all you will get from me, no spoiler alert necessary. I recommend reading all the Stephanie Plums in order.

Finger Lickin' Fifteen is the latest book in the Stephanie Plum series. Personally, I did not feel it was one of the strong points. I felt there were too many separate storylines going on in this book to the point where all organization is lost. I was partially confused with keeping track of all of Stephanie's FTAs, Stanley Chipotle's murderers, and Ranger's robber situation. I also felt that the Chipotle murder (the main case of the novel) was wrapped up a little disjointedly.
Nonetheless, the book does have its strong points. There were many points in the novel where I laughed out loud. And after so many books of Stephanie saying "Joe Morelli was my on-again, off-again boyfriend," it was nice to see that he was finally "off-again." I always tend to like when Stephanie goes to live with Ranger, but I think Evanovich could have executed it differently in this book. With all the fans screaming and begging for a little romance between Ranger and Stephanie, I don't see why Janet won't just let it happen. Also, the storyline of the Chipotle murder was pretty different from other crimes in the series, and I did enjoy Grandma Mazur and Lula's adventures in the kitchen.
I think most fans with be partially, if not fully, disappointed with this book. For me, I thought it was just okay. I will always continue to buy more books in this series, and am not at all ready to jump the Plum ship.
