What a great time to read a story in my favorite series involving zombies.

I missed Grandma and Lula, but I forgot how much Plum annoys me. Still, it fills a square for #rippedbodicebingo and I borrowed it from #Libby so I can listen while I do #diamondpainting .

Just finished. This was a fun read as her books always are. Includes Diesel and zombies.
3 stars

Reread before the next one. I'm getting tired of the romantic relationships going nowhere, however, the books are hilarious and the dialogue is awesome, so I continue reading. Also, zombies 😆

#BookishBingo: Borrowed from the library
#Pop19: Book featuring an amateur detective
#ISpy: Mystery

Reports of zombies roaming the town. Then Diesel shows up. There is bound to be a supernatural element when he‘s around. This was a fun book with Stephanie having to evade zombies while working as a bounty hunter. The supernatural part was very light.

My dog has a tough life. 😂

Another fun Stephanie Plum book complete with zombies, house gnomes, and Ethel. And with Lulu and Grandma, what more do you need? Oh, that‘s right, a 3rd hot man. The mysterious Diesel shows up again. I wish I had Stephanie‘s luck with men!

I‘m 8 books away from my goal of 100 books for the year and a whole long weekend with no plans, so I‘m all in for this weekend‘s #24B4Monday #readathon. Currently reading The Witch Elm, so I‘m hoping to finish that, read some graphic novels I‘ve been meaning to read and then make a nice dent in Doctor Zhivago. I always use the stopwatch for readathons, but I‘m going to try the countdown timer instead this time, so we‘ll see how that goes! 💁🏼‍♀️

So the latest Stephanie Plum story and as usual stuff happens to her. Not only does she have to contend with Morelli and Ranger, she also have Diesel too! #books #bookcover #lovetoread

This one was a little bit out there for me, but I did have a few laugh out loud moments. Lula never fails to disappoint me; I think she makes this series for me.

Stephanie and her friends are always funny. But it's the same thing over and over again. I need her to make a decision on a guy. I need some progression in the storyline. But, Evanovich still comes up with crazy scenarios for Grandma, Lula, and even Stephanie and it keeps me coming back for more.

Dedicated Stephanie Plum fans will be on board for the latest looney adventures that include zombies and a menacing boa constrictor. This edition's car explosion has to be the most creative/horrific ever. Stephanie does enjoy nice encounters with Ranger and Morelli, the two men in her life. 25 will be here before we know it with more excitement from Lula & Grandma and an inevitable funeral viewing...

“Cupcake, YOU‘RE my problem.” vs. “You‘re involved, so I‘m involved.” - The difference between Morelli & Ranger

Nothing out of the ordinary from the last 12 or so. I had a long day & I enjoyed an evening of mindless entertainment. Grandma‘s online dating, plus there are zombies & a pet boa constrictor.

She never disappoints! I get so many giggles reading these books. A nice change after a few intense books. I love these quick reads!

I know a lot of people have given up on this series but I still love it. Easy and fun reads. This one definitely wasn‘t my favorite but it‘s still cute.

I love this series! Why? you might ask. They are always the same thing: Ranger -Morelli love triangle, Cars blowing up or being destroyed, and Lula and Grandma Mazur. I know when I read this series my mind can take a break, and I can just read and relax. I love to read this series between my serious or more mind blowing reads.

Already to 30 out of my goal of 50 books read in 2018. I might need to change my goal! Only one from my TBR pile. I need to stop buying new books lol

Airport reading. Diesel is in this one, so I'm not thrilled but willing to give it a chance.

Always good, always laugh out loud funny!

Another fun romp in to Stephanie Plum‘s world! Diesel came out of the “between the numbers” and “Lizzie and Diesel” series to drop in to this book. It was interesting to have all three of the guys involved in this one. I‘ve heard people both enjoy & really dislike that part of this book. I, personally, found it pretty in keeping with the series. It got me out of my slump (hopefully!), so yay!

“I told myself going in that this would be the last Stephanie Plum book that I would read...”

Now, to enjoy...

Finally off of work (after my 6th day). Now, to relax...

Giving Ms. Plum one last book to keep me reading.

Sitting on the porch, watching the puppies play, waiting on the hubby to get home from work, & trying to get out of my reading slump. Happy Friday!

I know so many are getting tired of the Ranger/Morelli thing, but I don‘t even worry about it anymore. I read these for Stephanie destroying cars, Lula and Grandma. I laughed my a$$ off with this one.

Stephanie Plum is my hero and I wish I had her job. I swear I laugh out loud reading all Janet evanovich's books.

I think I might finally be done with this series. The characters never change and I just can‘t handle her cheating on Joe.

Pt 2
This series... I love it. I don't want to love it as much as I do, but I can't help it. I started it when I was in high school and I've stuck with them ever since. Janet Evanovich never ceases to amaze with the new troubles Stephanie Plum can find herself in time and time again. The characters are all quite witty and lovable, even the bad guys. 5🌟

Pt 1
Bounty hunter Stephanie Plum's life is complicated. There's Joe Morelli, whom she loves and may possibly want to marry. Ranger, whom she occasionally works for and is incredibly attracted to. Then there's Diesel, who occasionally pops up out of nowhere for brief visits. Not to mention the zombies who want to harvest her brain. Will she and Lula, her partner be able to catch their crooks & keep their brains??

1.) Trying to get this one finished up. Then back to The Woman In Cabin 10
2.) Depends on my mood but usually something with chocolate
3.) Millenial
4.) Kindle, Roku remote
5.) Working 😩😩😩
#HumpDayPost @Mindea

I'm tired & chances are high Peanut will be up a couple times during the night. But I want to read. I NEED to read. If I don't, I feel like I'll allow myself to slack & fall into a slump. Need to shake off the meh feelings & do something productive. I'm hoping that'll be easy to do with this book. This series is like one of my oldest friends. I slip back in with it without any problem, and Evanovich can generally make me laugh when I need it most.

I love my library!

Another book finished in #24in48 readathon!!! I‘ve been able to finish 3 because they were quick reading books, they‘ve been ok but not good. Stephanie Plum can always be counted on to get into ridiculous situations with Lola & her Grandma and Morelli and Ranger can be counted on to get her out of them. This time its babysitting a boa constrictor & finding brain eating Zombies. Quick read. I just wish she‘d decide between Ranger & Morelli already!

Gelato and Stephanie Plum. A good night.

You know what to expect from Stephanie Plum and that's just what you get here. Good fun.

#Audiobook #Review: Hardcore Twenty-Four by @janetevanovich with @prhaudio and Lorelei King. The narrator brings Steph and Lula to life as they clash with zombies, protesters and snowflakes!

I love me some Ranger...Babe 😍

When the forecast is for 39 degrees you just want something fun to read by the pool

Stephanie and her world never really changes. There's growth but it's at a molasses rate given how many installments there are. The past few books were just kind of ridiculous but this one...I don't know. It's like the ditzy got dialed back a little. The formula's the same but I enjoyed this more than the past several. If nothing else, you know what you're gonna get when you pick up a Stephanie Plum novel.

1. Crunchy

1st book of 2018 #guiltypleasure

Finally finished my #firstbook for 2018. I enjoyed this one more than some of the other most recent installments. It made me laugh throughout, which is the reason I continue to read this series.

As I have come to terms with the fact, that the author will never let Stephanie evolve in any way, I have quite enjoyed this installment.
