High Five by Janet Evanovich


From one red head to another, I really enjoy Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series. I like Evanovich's writing because her books are fast reads and full of sarcastic humor. The plots also keep you on the edge of your seat. I'm reading the fifth installment titled "High Five." In her books, Stephanie Plum is a new bond enforcement agent, or simply, a bounty hunter in New Jersey who is sort of learning on the job. Hilarious and often crazy things occur while she tries to get her man in order to pay her rent. She often joins forces with the sexy cop, Joe Morelli, and the mysterious bounty hunter, Ranger. Even when her worrisome mom gripes at her to get a decent job and her Grandma Mazur tries to "help" with her happy trigger finger, Stephanie always manages to catch the law breakers one way or the other. Usually its the other. In "High Five" Stephanie's Uncle Fred is missing and has left behind some unexplained photos of body parts in garbage bags. Benito Ramirez, a psychotic rapist who was in jail thanks to Stephanie, is now out and looking for the unlucky bounty hunter. Will she find Uncle Fred before Ramirez finds her? I can't wait to find out!
