I liked it but it was way over the top... October 25, 2008
I really enjoyed the first book (Metro Girl) in this 2 book series & I enjoyed this one as well but not as much. Everybody in this book gave me so many laughs but I found much of the book to be way over the top. There were just too many killings & many of them strange. Barney & Hooker & everyone else involved were just way too calm & then the stuff they would do was just too much. Unrealistic.
Overall I enjoyed this series & I'm glad that I read it. I would recommend this series.
 Good book, but... September 3, 2008
I want to start my review by saying that this was my first Janet Evanovich book - I bought it at a garage sale. I don't know why she made the assumption, but Evanovich took it for granted that everyone who was reading this book had certainly read Metro Girl first - except me, of course. I got at least half way into the book without even knowing what the heroine's name was or anything about her, which I found disconcerting and confusing. Once I got past the initial shortcomings of the book, I really enjoyed it. Even though Alex doesn't seem to have much personality of her own, I found the situations that she and Hooker got themselves were hilarious and I especially enjoyed the character development of the minor characters of the book. I don't care for Nascar, but it did make the storyline interesting and fun. I did go back to read Metro Girl after I finished this one and my unanswered questions finally got the closure they deserved. Note to Ms. Evanovich - don't take for granted that everyone is going to read your books in order - a little background information in each book would be helpful if you want to continue to recruit new fans! Luckily, I was intrigued enough to go back and read Metro Girl to fill in the blanks.
Fun to read, light-hearted romp or Life with Beans August 28, 2008
If you enjoy reading the Plum series, you will find this book light and fun to read. The dialogue is not quite as snappy nor are the characters as colorful, but you can get carried away on the flow of the words and the changes of scenery. I could picture South Beach, the yacht, the luxury hotels and the concierge of "The Pearl." I loved Beans and Itzy-Poo. Actions involving the exploits of Beans are laugh-out-loud entertainment. Sure it isn't Stephanie Plum and LuLu and don't read it expecting it to be so. This is a diversion for Evanovich and I'm sure she enjoyed writing it as much as I enjoyed reading it. Spend a few quiet hours in your recliner with a Lite beer or iced tea and chill!
 Easy Reading, but not too good June 24, 2008

I have never read this author before, and I don't think that I will read another, the story dragged, the characters are not smart, not at one time did I find it funny (although I had no idea what to expect). Someone lent me the book, and I read it and it kept me interested...sorta, but I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone, go with Jayne Krentz or Nora Roberts, or even JR Ward....guess I don't like this genre?
Fun and entertaining, a great light read April 5, 2008

Motormouth caught my attention in audio books. I enjoyed the characters and the acting done by C.J. Critt. I am new to Janet Evanovich novels and had no preconceived notions of "Stephanie". The main character, Barney, intrigued me, as did Sam Hooker. There is definite chemistry between them and the story moves alone at a healthy, but not too rushed pace. I listen to books while driving on a long commute, and am happy to hear that Barney and Hooker have established a following. I will be one of those waiting for the next installment! When I have to take an audio book inside the house to finish it, I consider it a good read, as I did Motormouth. I will be sure to check out other novels by Janet E.
