3.0 out of 5 stars
Full Tilt, 24 Feb 2003
I am a big fan of Janet Evanovich and the Stephanie Plum series, but I felt let down by this book. It still has some quirky characters that is reminiscent of Plum, but the humour is dragging and the pace slow going, and it felt like a tired romance novel spruced up.

Full Steam Ahead, 11 April 2003
If you are looking for an easy read, with down to earth characters, then the second book in the new 'full' series, from Amercian bestseller Janet Evanovich, is sure to please. Following on from the international success of the Stephanie Plum novels, this is another great book to add to your collection.Evanovich teams up with friend Hughes, to produce a new series of entertaining books. We are introduced to new leading ladies. In 'Full Tilt' we meet Jamie Swift, a no nonsense, go-getter, with determination and attitude. The plot is easy to follow and three of the main characters have followed through from the first book, 'Full House'. You are taken through a will they, won't they scenario between the two main characters, with the main plot running tandem to this storyline. There are many twists and turns, but nothing that will lose you along the way. Fans of Stephanie Plum will be delighted with the new heroines. They are not as wild as Ms Plum, but are still as interesting and intriguing. Humour is still found sprinkled throughout the novel. If you are a fan of Evanovich and her previous creations, then the 'Full' series is a must for your bookshelf.
