I think in the future I'm just going to wait for the paperback. I used to LOVE this series. It was always well written, hysterically funny and sexy to boot. This series has fallen short with novels 14 & 15 and 16 is just as flat as the other two. The jokes are old, there's still not enough Ranger or Morelli and much as I love Lula she's become tedious. It almost feels like someone else wrote the book of Evanovich has to really work to put out the Plum novels each year. What a let down. Like I said, next year I'll save my money and wait till it becomes available on PBS.

I love the Stephanie Plum series, and I really enjoyed this book as well. There were laugh out loud moments, and Stephanie seems to be standing at a crossroads...I'm interested to find out what she'll do next.

The books of this series are still readable, but there is simply no "edge" to the stories. I have decided not t read any more of the Plum series as there comes a time in any series where they have gone on too long and you want to know what happens to the characters. I guess, just not fresh anymore!

You don't have to read the other 15 to appreciate this book, since the characters never change or learn from their past mistakes. However, it wouldn't hurt to read/review "Lord of the Rings" before reading this.

Not like her previous books at all...Very little humor, and definitely no sizzle!

I love Janet Evanovich books!! Rarely do books make me laugh out loud but these books are great and yes I do laugh out loud many times while reading these books. The antics that Stephanie and her friend Lula get into is a lot like the kind of stuff my best friend and I use to get into when we were younger, not the same but ....................

In keeping with prior Stephenie Plum books, the characters are very predictable and the plot familiar. A good easy read.

Janet Evanovich does a great job with her Stephanie Plum character and the ensemble of co stars in the Stephanie Plum series and Sizzling Sixteen is no exception. As usual you are rooting for Stephanie to get her man, which ever one she chooses - sexy, strong cop Morelli or sexy, mysterious and dangerous Ranger. As usual her partner in bounty hunting Lula keeps you in stitches with her on again off again mystery diets and take not "stuff" attitude. Finally we get a bit more time with office assistant Connie, who's family is Mob, and learn that she fits right in with everyone else. They all come together to rescue and save Stephanie's cousin Vinnie from his own stupidity, when he is kidnapped due to overdue funds to his bookie amounting to over one million dollars. As usual the bounty hunting and side personalities are entertaining. If you like strong women in a sexy and funny back drop, you will truly enjoy, this and the rest of the Stephanie Plum Novels.

The usual fun junk. Enjoyable.

Another fun Plum run! Stephanie/Lula, Stephanie/Ranger, Stephanie/Joe, all make for laughs, sexy tingles, and excitement. Add Grandma Mazur to the mix and it just gets better and better. I hope Evanovich never runs out of numbers! I loved it.

A very good book-starts a little slow but picks up quickly and rolls from there. Grandma Mazur is at her best also :)

Better than the last one, but the "sizzle" is just not there anymore it seems. Worth reading if you are a Stephanie Plum fan, but I am glad I did not rush out and purchase a new copy.
