amanda Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 I love her books except that they are too quick of a read! Any one else agree? I just picked this up a couple of days ago and I'm done already. Whaaah, I want more laughs!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorac Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Hey Amanda, I have to agree with you. Her books are too slow in coming out and too fast in reading. I haven't received mine yet, as I ordered it from the Literary Guild and they haven't sent them out yet. But I'm so ready for a good laugh, I can't wait to get it. I just love her writing and her characters, especially Grandma Mazur. She's a hoot. And of course Ranger, "Babe." Gotta love him. And of course her sidekick, Lula. What a group.

A-dab-adu Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Wouldn't you love it if there was a movie about her escapades! I thought there might be one years ago! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbc72 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 I agree- love her books, but hate waiting for them every June! And while I enjoy the other books she writes, I just don't LOVE them like I do Stephanie and the gang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kricket Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 I love her books too. Already finished "14", didn't even take a day to read. The "fainting" had me laughing out loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amanda Posted June 23, 2008 Author Share Posted June 23, 2008 Haaaa! I knew I wasn't the only one! The Cluck in the Bucket part is what got me laughing. I want movies too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericahite Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 I'm a fan. I definitely want to read the newest one. I'd love to get it from the library though, because, as you said, her books are such a fast read! Erica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurpleJAF Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Oh, I agree, Amanda. When I first discovered this series, I ran out to every used bookstore in the area and bought them all at once so I wouldn't be without the next one. That was back to book nine. I haven't read from 10 on yet. I'll have to get caught up when I'm done with my classes. Here are who I picture playing the characters in the movie (if there ever is one): Stephanie - Sandra Bullock Joe - Vincent Spano Ranger - The Rock Grandma Mazur - Estelle Getty Lulu - Queen Latifa Any one else have any ideas?

Mindy Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 I totally love them too! They are definitely laugh out loud books. I put mine on hold at the library - I'm #17 on the waiting list, so I'm just hoping they have a bunch of copies of it! Stephanie & her whole thing about Ranger's shower gel cracks me up everytime I think about it. Can't wait to read it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janet Evanovich came to a bookstore here a few yrs back and now I remember ppl talking about Sandra Bullock playing the lead and Queen Latifa playing Lulu.....Maybe it's not just a rumor!!!

anemone1983 Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 I love her Plum series! These are the only books I've read in the last few years that I laugh so hard I'm brought to tears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie in PA Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 I have been hooked since number 1. I just read the last between the numbers one too, but Stephanie will always be my favorite too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandiC. Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 I love these too. And I agree, they just fly by too fast. I always want more. And I love her characters. They are laugh out loud funny. You just have to love them. Not great literature but fantastic entertainment, better than a movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debbiek Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Add me to the cheering section. I can't get enough of Stephanie and friends, but agree that they go too quickly--I'm at the end of a book well before I want to be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorac Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 I just started reading her latest "Plum Spooky" and it is a hoot and I've only just started. I love her books and hate it when I'm at the end. I never want them to end and her books are too far apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrappinang Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I am also a Plum Series fan! I absolutely love these and I can't wait for "Finger Lickin' Fifteen" to hit the stores! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SallyA Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I'm with everyone else on this. I love Stephanie, et al. I will from now on, picture Sandra Bullock in my head as I read these books. She'd make a good Stephanie if ever there was a movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amanda Posted April 3, 2009 Author Share Posted April 3, 2009 We have to wait until June for the next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ledo Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 When I 1st started to read her books a couple of people I worked with were passing them around. I think I started with the 5th book. Anyway I am originally from New Jersey and when I passed the book on I was able to include a package of butterscothch krimpets with it. I am from a different part of the state but would almost swear I have been to some of the places she talks about! Funny stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
