TheAromaofBooks Yay!! I have a book by Evanovich on my shelf somewhere that still hasn't been read! 2y

Bookzombie @Eggs Thank you! 2y

Bookzombie @TheAromaofBooks 🙂 Is it a Stephanie Plum book? I stopped after book 25 because they weren‘t as fun anymore. I sometimes think about just going back to the beginning. 2y

TheAromaofBooks No, it appears to be one of her romance novels - Manhunt! I got it in a swap box this past December, actually. 2y

AshleyHoss820 Yes!! I am also Team Ranger! 🥵😂 2y

Look Alive Twenty-Five: A Stephanie Plum Novel | Janet Evanovich

so-so

Dear Janet,
I‘m sorry but our time together has come to an end. While I think this book is better than the last, your series no longer sparks joy for me. I was happy with Stephanie and her life as is, including her indecision between Morelli and Ranger. I didn‘t care for the addition of Diesel or, in this one, Wolf. It felt like you needed to hit a word count and threw in a pointless character. Peace out. #E #LitsyAtoZ #seriesbreakup #teamranger

readinginthedark Sometimes series go on too long. I felt similarly about the Sookie Stackhouse series by Charlaine Harris. 😕 5y

TiredLibrarian I agree. The earliest books in this series were so much fun, but it ran out if steam a while ago. 😕 5y

Reggie Oh no!!!! the seriesbreakup hashtag!!! 😭Lol it happens. 5y

Cinfhen I thought that was very gentle!! Nice way to say goodbye 😉 5y

JoScho Ugh. They were so good in the beginning. 5y

Traci1 I feel exactly the same way. It was a bit better than 24, but that's saying very little. I hate that she brought Diesel and Wulf in from the between the numbers books, which are a tad supernatural. Steph's story didn't need any supernatural stuff added. If she's going to continue down that road, I think I'm done too. I hate that, because I loved those books. 😔 5y

Mdargusch Oh darn. Like I‘ve said before, I‘m glad I stopped at book eight. 5y

Dragon I gave up at nineteen 🐉 5y

Larkken “Spark joy” -> 🤣 5y

Bookzombie @readinginthedark Yes, they do. I never finished Sookie either. I started book 8 and then never finished it. 5y

Bookzombie @TiredLibrarian Thanks, it definitely did. 5y

Bookzombie @Reggie LOL! It made happy to write that hashtag. 5y

Bookzombie @Cinfhen Thank you! I think if I wasn‘t limited to 451 characters it might have become a rant. Lol. 5y

Bookzombie @JoScho They were! Some day I might revisit the early ones because I did love the characters. 5y

Bookzombie @Traci1 I enjoy supernatural but I so agree that Stephanie didn‘t need that in her story. I read the between the numbers books and didn‘t really enjoy them. It‘s hard to find you dislike a series that was a favorite. I‘m sure I will revisit the early books one day. I really enjoyed the audio versions. 5y

Bookzombie @Mdargusch 🙂 There may have been a few good ones after that but you probably stopped at a perfect time. 5y

Traci1 @Bookzombie yeah, some of my favorite books are fantasy / supernatural. But to add it to an established story that was never like that is just weird. I liked the normal Plum world just the way it was. There was no need to mess with it. Leave out Diesel and give me more Lula and Grandma Mazur! 😁 5y

Bookzombie @Dragon Yeah, I was already thinking about ending it then. Sometimes breakups are a long time coming. 😉 5y

Bookzombie @Larkken 😂😂 5y

Bookzombie @Traci1 I‘m in total agreement. 🙂 5y

Dragon So true 👍🐉 5y

readinginthedark Yeah, I finished that series because they were such quick reads for me, but I'll probably never do that again with a series I just can't take any more. 5y

Yes, it's formulaic, the characters and relationships show no sign of developing and the story is just another variation on all the stories that have gone before. It's still fun, though, and good for a few laughs along the way.

Crinoline_Laphroaig Thank you for the review. I bailed on this series about book 21. If ever we get some new developments I'll jump back in. Doesn't sound like this is happening yet. 5y

GlassAsDiamonds 😂🤦🏻‍♀️😂🤦🏻‍♀️ Me: Oh! A Stephanie Plum review, I wonder what she‘s up to (bailed somewhere in the teens). *read review*. Also me: HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE?!?!? @Crinoline_Laphroaig - I know right but..... HOW?!?! I was annoyed enough ten books ago, HOW is she still milking this series?!?!? 5y

Crinoline_Laphroaig @GlassAsDiamonds I think she should either marry Joe and have babies while still being madcap Stephanie or Give up the guilt and just be with Ranger. I'd read either one of those stories. Although I've always thought Ranger was the best choice. He loves her just the way she is and doesn't try to change her. #teamranger 5y

GlassAsDiamonds @Crinoline_Laphroaig totally give up the guilt #teamranger , 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Joe always annoys me!!! 5y

Crinoline_Laphroaig @GlassAsDiamonds Joe's always trying to turn her into the little woman housewife. Ranger's sexy, plus you get the awesome apartment with meals delivered and hot cars. @CarolynM we hijacked your review to debate Morelli vs Ranger. 5y

GlassAsDiamonds @Crinoline_Laphroaig well... not so much “debate” as “agree on Ranger” (not that the sexy, great apartment, hot cars and meals aren‘t a sell but as you say, he‘s the one of the two who just values her for her). @CarolynM .... very useful review here, thanks awfully! 😊😊😊😂😂😂 (edited) 5y

CarolynM @Crinoline_Laphroaig @GlassAsDiamonds I can honestly say I've never been invested enough to care which man she ends up with. I enjoy them at face value and don't give them another moment's thought.😀 5y

GlassAsDiamonds @CarolynM that‘s a skill!!! 😊😊😊 (That i do not possess I admit. I end up invested in virtually everything I read which is annoying if it‘s annoying! Also why I no longer read this series 🤦🏻‍♀️). 5y

thegirlwiththelibrarybag I've veered wildly between Ranger and Morelli over the years... will there ever be resolution?! 7y

ChasingOm I also love

The Hangman's Daughter

drokka @thegirlwiththelibrarybag I hope there's a resolution soon. It would create a whole new set of tensions. Especially if she had her end up with Morelli, and Ranger taking over the bonds shop as a silent partner. 7y

drokka @ChasingOm Huzzah! 7y

Lmstraubie I didn't like Pride & Prejudice either and always feel guilty about it. 😣 7y

thegirlwiththelibrarybag I think Stephanie needs to quit being a bounty hunter... she was amazing when she did consultation work at RangeMan (a million books back) but Morelli got weird about it... and she's not cut out for a 9-5 job! I'm hoping for some significant character development from at least one of the trio in the next book... can't tread water forever! 7y

Elisa Totally with you on #8! 7y

Elisa Also, about 3., #teamranger all the way! 😉😁 7y
