Eleven on Top

by Janet Evanovich

ONE LINE SUMMARY: Stephanie Plum quits her job as a bounty hunter, takes on several worse jobs, all while trying to figure out who’s stalking her.

In this latest adventure, Stephanie’s charms start to wear a little thing. Her sidekick Lula is just as bold as ever, her grandma as crazy as ever, and the two men in her life as hot as ever. And that’s the problem. Eleven books have come and gone, and the most Stephanie has matured is to suddenly and inexplicably decide the bounty hunter life is not for her. Where’s the leadup to this momentous decision? Where are the regrets, the ponderings, the mental questioning of one’s self?

Alas, all of Stephanie’s concerns get wrapped up in the same old quandary–does she want to be with Morelli or Ranger? By now, I’m thinking I don’t care much which one–just pick one, because after 11 books, she should have made up her mind by now.

I still enjoyed the book, but some of the original charm and humor have been lost to me because of the lack of development and growth for any of the characters. Now I’m a little disappointed that I started buying this series.
