Her characters are intriging..okay imagine Lula, a former hooker and quite amply endowed wearing spandex that barely fits her working Atlantic City and announcing to all who would be in listening distance that she is an 'almost supermodel' while creating a diversion by dropping her bucket filled with nickels..I swear I never laughed so hard in my life..Ms. Evanovich has fourteen books and I'm on the hunt for each and every one of them!!! I'm on book 5 now. I haven't read 'Plum Lucky' but I have book 6 and 7 up next to read. These are hysterically funny books! I imagine myself about as naive a bounty hunter as Stephanie Plum. (she doesn't like to carry a gun so usually opts for pepper spray first) The thing about these books is that you probably know someone just like most of the characters in the story. They're wonderful stories and a fast read.

| Hey Ketana, if you're looking for a great little Christmas story try 'Visions of Sugar Plums'. It's another Stephanie Plum story centered around Christmas. It actually falls between 'Hard Eight' and 'To The Nines'. It's features one of her former FTA's,(a funny little guy), a burned up car (what Stephanie Plum story would be complete without one), and at least 2 great dysfunctional family dinner scenes. It's a great read.

| okay I'm on E-bay searching for these books and finally found one seller who has 12 of these books for sale so I put a bid on them! Cross my fingers and hope to win them because I simply cannot get enough of Stephanie, Ranger, Lula and Morelli and we can't forget Bob!

| I'm about half way through 'Twilight' by Stephanie Meyer. The same book thery're making the movie of. As usual, the book has so much in it I can't imagine how the movie would be as good as the book. It's kind of a teenage angst story, but the vampire aspect is makes for a really good story.
