Janet Evanovich is the hottest author in America, and her Stephanie Plum novels have taken the nation by storm! #1 New York Times #1 Wall Street Journal #1 Los Angeles Times #1 Entertainment Weekly #1 Publishers Weekly She’s accidentally destroyed a dozen cars. She’s a target for every psycho and miscreant this side of the Jersey Turnpike. Her mother’s convinced she’ll end up dead . . . or worse, … and miscreant this side of the Jersey Turnpike. Her mother’s convinced she’ll end up dead . . . or worse, without a man. She’s Stephanie Plum, and she kicks butt for a living (well, she thinks it sounds good to put it that way. . . .).
It begins as an innocent trip to the deli-mart, on a quest for nachos. But Stephanie Plum and her partner, Lula, are clearly in the wrong place at the wrong time. A robbery leads to an explosion, which leads to the destruction of yet another car. It would be just another day in the life of Stephanie Plum, except that she becomes the target of a gang—and of an even scarier, more dangerous force that comes to Trenton. With super bounty hunter Ranger acting more mysteriously than ever (and the tension with vice cop Joe Morelli getting hotter), she finds herself with a decision to make: how to protect herself and where to hide while on the hunt for a killer known as the Junkman. There’s only one safe place, and it has Ranger’s name all over it—if she can find it. And if the Junkman doesn’t find her first. With Lula riding shotgun and Grandma Mazur on the loose, Stephanie Plum is racing against the clock in her most suspenseful novel yet. Ten Big Ones is page-turning entertainment, and Janet Evanovich is the best there is.

Janet Evanovich is one of my favorite authors. Love Stephanie Plum!
Unpredictable! The ending to this totally caught me off guard! Loved it! Janet Evanovich creates the most entertaining characters. The narrator, Lorelei King, is fabulous! She is the absolute best at creating entertaining voices. You have no trouble differentiating between characters. Oh the trouble Stephanie Plum, a bounty hunter, can get into.
Sally Sweet comes into his own!
I love this series!
4 out of 5 stars to Ten Big Ones, the 10th book in the “Stephanie Plum” cozy mystery series, written in 2004 by Janet Evanovich. We’ve hit double digits in the books, and with it, Evanovich brings double the laughter, which was already in overdrive. We meet Sally Sweet in this book, a cross-dresser with so much to say! Hilarious. Just over the top. But so is Stephanie, as she’s going to be killed by the mob. She’s gotten a little too big for her britches, as they say, by now in her hometown. People know she is a bounty hunter. They know she usually, in some weird way, gets her perp. And she always survives, no matter what they throw at her. Sounds pretty lucky, huh? I thought so too. And if the books weren’t so funny, I might have a hard time with the formulaic stories. But in truth, there are so many different characters, a fantastic amount of plots and incident, you can look the other way and just enjoy them for what they are. And when the mob is involved, you know the hits will keep on coming.
Always great for a laugh
I always laugh when reading her books
I’ve read them all. She has a wicked imagination.
You gotta love Janet!!
