One For The Money by Janet Evanovich

I wanted to read One For The Money because the library is doing a program on it prior to it coming out in cinemas. It seems like almost everyone on staff has read Evanovic but me. I found it to be a fast paced read and it was easy to get to know the characters. The action is attention-getting and I can see how it could easily be made into a movie. You are quickly involved in the life of Stephanie Plum, a girl down on her luck and ready to try anything. Being out of a job she convinces her cousin Vinnie to let her take a shot at being an apprehension agent (bounty hunter). Although she has no skills, she has a few friends she figures can give her a few pointers. Besides, she needs the money. This is where the real adventure and danger begin. After reading the first novel in the Stephanie Plum series I would definitely be a member of "Team Morelli" (come to our program to learn what this is). Read this book to get your crime novel fix.
