Some choice plums - By: L O'connor, 26 Jul 2007
This is an entertaining collection of essays by various authors about Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum novels.

There are some very amusing essays. Of the section dealing with Stephanie's complex love life, my favourite was 'The Fast & the Furry-ous'in which Rhonda Eudaly convincingly argues that the only man Stephanie really needsin her life is not Morelli or Ranger, but Rex the hamster. 'Could Stephanie Plum Really Get Car Insurance?' by JA Knorath is absolutely hilarious, &in 'The STephanie Plum Diet' Charlene Brusso shows us the wisdom of Stephanie's eating choices & exercise regime. In 'Ranger as...Hairy Godmother?' Karen Kendall shows that Ranger's rolein the Plum fairy tale is really that of fairy godmother rather than the prince.

A few of the essays are a little on the heavy side, given the light nature of the books, but overall I found this collection very amusing.
