Janet Evanovich- To The Nines (Book Review)

Janet Evanovich- To The Nines
A Stephanie Plum Novel

*Book Jacket Review*
Stephanie Plum has rent to pay, people shooting at her, and psychos wanting her dead every day of the week (much to the dismay of her mother, her family, the men in her life, the guy who slices meat at the deli…oh, the list goes on. An ordinary person would cave under the pressure.
But hey, she’s from Jersey.

Stephanie Plum may not be the best bounty hunter in beautiful downtown Trenton, but she’s pretty darn good at turning bad situations her way…and she always gets her man. In To The Nines, her cousin Vinnie (who’s her boss) has poste bail on Samuel Singh, an illegal immigrant. When the elusive Mr. Singh goes missing, Stephanie is on the case. But what she uncovers is far more sinister than anyone imagines and leads to a group of killers who give new meaning to the word hunter.

In a race against time that takes her from the Jersey turnpike to the Las Vegas strip, Stephanie Plum is on the chase of her life. The unforgettable characters, nonstop action, high-stakes suspense and sheer entertainment of To The Nines define Janet Evanovich as unique among today’s writers.

*My Review*
This is a very well written book that keeps you so embraced in the words that I actually read it in about 2 ½ hours, because I couldn’t do anything but keep reading.

Until this book, I hadn’t had the privilege to read ANY book by Janet Evanovich. Now that I have, I want to read them all. She is a wonderful author, with an amazing way with words. She has so clearly made her characters lifelike and plot and characters are very well detailed.

Stephanie, the bounty hunter is trying to find Samuel Singh (an illegal immigrant in Trenton on a Visa) before her cousin Vinnie has a heart attack (he bailed Samuel Singh out) and now he is nowhere to be found. What Stephanie hopes to find is far from what she DOES actually find. Far more trouble than she realized it would be. She thinks for awhile that she is on a goose chase. If Vinnie and Stephanie don’t have Singh in custody before the hearing, both of them may very well be out of jobs. While questioning the whereabouts of Singh, Stephanie finds herself in a situations she couldn’t have even dreamed up.

I’m not one for spoiling, so I’m going to leave it at that. Amazing book, unforgettable characters, and fantastic plot. You have to read it yourself.
