I needed a pick-me-up 😆
Just trying to get caught up on this great series before the next book comes out.
Awesome series. Never laughed so hard.
Not the best in the series, but I enjoyed it. I thought the crimes taking place in the ice cream factory was a nice touch. Stephanie gets to go undercover in two different factories. This is a fun, light-hearted read. Nothing deep here, just a good time. I still enjoy this series and am excited to read #24 next.

1. I don‘t really have a “guilty pleasure book” because I will never feel guilty about reading any book. I just love to read, but one of my fave easy, fun series reads is Janet Evanovich‘s Stephanie Plum series.
2. Again, no guilt, but I love to watch (& quote) any of the 80s teen flicks, like The Breakfast Club, Pretty In Pink, Say Anything, etc.
3. Wendy‘s chocolate frosty
Sitting in Charlotte airport, waiting for my flight. Book one is going down....
When you're about to fly north for the weekend and there is snow in the forecast....
Well that was an enjoyable fun little read.
On to the next! I've never read any of these, I was looking for a light quick read on overdrive.
Wanted a fast airplane read, haven‘t read these for awhile. I was thinking that maybe someone finally got married or maybe the best character of Grandma had a larger part but nope! Can‘t read these anymore, same story still over and over and over and over.
I love Stephanie Plum. Another enjoyable adventure that had me laughing at loud.
This was my first read of 2017. I swore I wouldn‘t do it again, but just look at my library holds to find me in line for #24. Oh well I do like Grandma Mazur & Stephanie‘s mom! 🤷♀️ #firstreadoftheyear #Allthebooksof2017
Love Stephanie Plum. A funny, easy read. Though i have to wonder if she will ever choose between Ranger and Morelli.
Good lord these books just keep getting worse and worse. MAKE A CHOICE, STEPHANIE.
Started this today while cleaning and setting up my office - I wonder if it‘ll be exactly the same as the last 22 books or if Stephanie will finally pick a guy. 🙄
Love this series! Stephanie Plum is just so great! And what a choice Ranger or Morelli! #books #bookcollection #bookworm #currentread #crime #booknerd
These really are the most repetitive, formulaic books ever. But I will read every one that comes out. 🤣
My guilty pleasure is revealed. Are you Team Cupcake or Team Babe? [All 23 are there—both ends got cropped.] #riotgrams #numbertitles #guiltypleasure #booklover
A Stephanie Plum book is always a good light-hearted mystery full of LOL moments 😂
Perfect for when the world, and my life, is a bit stressed!
As much as I love this series it is really starting to be very predictable. Okay it has been very predictable for a while now. I would like to see something different with the next book. It's still a pick for me though because it is a quick, easy, mindless read and sometimes you need just that.
To get me out of my reading slump I'm gonna read one of my all time favorite book series!
Lula, with gas, in an episode of "Naked and Afraid"?? Yep, it that funny. A dead guy covered in chocolate and nuts...Evanovich knows how to write light and funny stories.
As always, I enjoyed all the fun hijinks of Lula and Grandma Mazur. The reason I didn't enjoy the book more isn't because Stephanie continues to have no character arc (I actually think she's getting better at her job), but because while I enjoy the flirtation, in this book Stephanie is clearly with Morelli but sleeps with Ranger anyways. I'm not a fan of cheaters, even with the hotness of Ranger. It also makes me dislike Ranger, which is sad.
This was an excellent light read. It is humorous just like all the books in this series. Many people comment that it's too predictable but honestly these are light humorous reads and shouldn't be taken that seriously.
Riley reading over my shoulder. He's an indoor cat, but now that he's 14, he's allowed out in the fenced in backyard on occasion. #catsoflitsy
Spending #SundaysInBedWith Turbo Twenty-Three. Until I have to go to the bookstore, at least! What are you reading today?
Ready for a lighter read after the past few books.
Despite the many, many books I own and have to read before the month is up, I've had a rough week that only Lula and Grandma Mazur can make better! #CurrentlyReading
I thought this was ok. A fun way to spend a couple of hours. The crime solution felt a bit rushed but my main complaint is that I really wish Stephanie would decide between Morelli and Ranger or just accept she is sleeping with both when it suits. After 23 books her guilt and angst is wearing thin for me as a reader.
Having said that Lula and Grandma continue to delight though I fear I was reading it more for them than Stephanie.
Not feeling well today, so I think I will read some Stephanie Plum!
Not the best Plum but not the worst. Janet has been kind of phoning these in for awhile now but it's still a fun way to spend a few hours. Plus Grandma Mazur never disappoints.
I love Stephanie Plum books! They are perfect vacation books (read it on a plane) & always make me laugh!! But it's time to decide between Morelli & Ranger already!! Who do you think she should pick?
It's the same kind of crazy & unbelievable mayhem that I've come to expect from this series. AND I'm completely ok with it all!🙃 Sometimes my brain needs a break😄
Fast mindless fun, just the right thing to quickly forget the headlines lately! New Jersey bounty hunter Stephanie Plum on the case. Not as badass as expected though...
This innocent looking darling has started waking me up at 4 am for no good reason. So now I can't stay up late to finish the latest Stephanie Plum. He's going to be in big trouble if he dares to do it again tonight!😹
I wasn't planning on reading this one, but my father-in-law passed it along when he finished it. The formula still works I guess, they are still entertaining and still make me laugh...but some of the humor makes me cringe, and I just feel like moving on from this series. #LitsyAtoZ #LetterE
Finished this one on my walk tonight. On one hand, I feel like Stephanie's been in the same spot for a dozen books but on the other I can never resist. Lula and Grandma Mazur always make it a worthwhile trip. Add to that Lorelei King's fantastic narration and it's well worth the listen.
I am so on the fence on what to do. I think this is the 23rd time I read the same novel, but somehow I get a little enjoyment. I Kurds it is only one book a year, so probably will continue.
I can only enjoy these if I come to terms with the fact that Stephanie will never age or pick between Ranger and Morelli. I decided to enjoy these novels for the book/brain candy they are. Stephanie did seem to become more competent in her job in this novel and her car didn't blow up so there was some slight forward movement.
Got this off the hold list at the library. I use to so love these books, but I am really on the fence on these now. This might be my last one of this series.
????⭐
I've long since decided to not care about the "love triangle" as I'm starting to feel frowny about the morality of her interactions with the two guys.
This was a little less madcap than usual. Steph is starting to be somewhat competent at pulling in her skips. Not to say there wasn't plenty of amusing moments along the way and I just enjoyed the unravelling of the mystery - my fav part of SP books these days. #romansty #osrbc
