I enjoyed the first ten or so Stephanie Plum books, but how many times can you tell the same one-note joke before it losses its pizzaz? I think it's safe to say that no one ever read these for the "mystery." It was always about the characters, but now they're more caricature than character. Lula, for me, was only ever good for two books before I started skimming scenes with her in them (I found her more annoying than funny.) Gramma Mazer, too, has lost her appeal. There is no growth in any of these characters. The only thing that ever kept me reading was the sizzle in the triangle between Steph, Morelli, and Ranger and even that falls flat here. This is probably my last Evanovich. Sure glad I didn't pay good money for this.
