Top Secret Twenty One by Janet Evanovitch

December 31, 2022 by Wanderlustful Leave a Comment

The Janet Evanovitch series started off really strong (One for the Money), and the first five-ish entries were also solid. That was over 20 years ago now, and for a while the entries were increasingly outlandish and ridiculous. I probably wouldn’t have bought another entry, but this arrived free of charge (a friend clearing out their book hoard) and it was right on time for my New York trip pre-reading (technically the series is set in New Jersey, but this one dips across into New […]

Full Scoop by Janet Evanovitch

April 15, 2020 by Wanderlustful Leave a Comment
