I enjoy this mystery/caper/comedy series very much. Book 21 is no exception. It’s well written with consistent characters and excellent dialogue. Personal interactions seem real, even when they’re over the top. Evanovich knows her characters and keeps them true to themselves in each and every book.
Want to know how good it is? A recurring-in-the-series secondary character who I just can’t stand plays a big role in Top Secret Twenty-One. I cringe at his name. In previous books I’ve even skipped over paragraphs that concern him. I couldn’t do that in this book because the plot depended on him. And I STILL LOVED THE BOOK. Despite Randy Briggs annoying the heck out of me, I was able to enjoy every word and joke and hug and criminal confrontation.
As usual, Stephanie Plum cracked me up. Lula and Grandma made me laugh even harder. And Morelli and Ranger … Well, see for yourself. 🙂
