Product Description

Review
Praise for Metro Girl: 'There's no one like Evanovich when it comes to fast-paced and funny crime fiction, and this latest won't disappoint' Marie Claire 'Metro Girl is so full of innuendo and sexy sunshine, you'll forget it's cold and miserable outside. This book has fast lane written all over it' Cosmopolitan 'A fast and funny thriller' Bella 'Feisty and fast-paced' Company 'A high speed crime thriller' More Praise for Janet Evanovich: 'Hilarious reading, with a gorgeous fistful of believable and only occasionally murderous eccentrics' Mail on Sunday 'Evanovich's comic surrealism is in the same league as Carl Hiaasen's' Marcel Berlins, The Times 'Janet Evanovich's name raises expectations of a laughaloud story! an entertaining frolic' Sunday Telegraph 'Punchy, saucy and stacks of fun' Mirror 'The pace never flags, the humour is grandly surreal and the dialogue fairly sizzles off the page' Irish Times

Bella
'A fast and funny thriller'

3.0 out of 5 stars Give it a break!, 21 Feb 2006
By love2read (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Okay, okay, so this book isn't going to win any awards for its literary genius, but the above reviews are about as fair as a slap in the face. What were the reviewers expecting after reading the back cover? Wild Swans? Henry James? It is clearly a Chicklit novel and it doesn't pretend to be anything else. Cheesy characters, car chases, kidnaps and illegal weapons - fun and light-hearted, it does exactly what it says on the tin (or blurb).

I appreciate good literature but I'm not going to deny that after a tiring week's work there can be a place for a simple amusing read like this. I recommend it for a pleasant wind-down of an evening (glass of chilled Chardonnay a must).

3.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable read, 14 May 2006
By Plum Crazy (Birmingham, UK) - See all my reviews
I'm a big Stephanie Plum fan, so I was quite looking forward to this book. Unfortunately, it's not as engaging or charming as Evanovich's Plum series, and the characters are quite two dimensional. However, if you want an easy, undemanding read - suspend your higher cognitive functions (and your belief!) and give it a go!

4.0 out of 5 stars It's supposed to be Fun!...and it is., 13 Mar 2006
I don't usually read novels which are light-hearted as such but I have read all of Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series (rather out of character for me) and after some deliberation I thought I'd give this a go. I liked it! Now it's not literary but it's not supposed to be! Far from it it's just a bit of fun and that's how it should be taken. It's very similar to the Stephanie Plum series in that these characters are not deep. But it's sexy and it's fast and..well sometimes you do have to let your hair down!

1.0 out of 5 stars All hype and no delivery.
Janet Evanovich promises much but delivers little in this hotchpotch of plots, childish dialogue and unappealing characters.

I feel cheated that I spent my money on this. Read more
