Title: Plum Spooky
Author: Janet Evanovich
Jan's Rating: 6
I am a big fan of Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series of books and #14 was her best so far, so I was disappointed when I read Plum Spooky and it was kind of Hoakie. Usually her stories are believeable but this one was not and frankly I was sorry I had paid full price for the hard back and glad when I had finished it. Come on, Janet, you are a better writer than this.

TRIBUTE
Title: Tribute
Author: Nora Roberts
Jan's Rating: 8
Nora Roberts is an awesome writer who never disappoints me. In "Tribute", Cilla McGowan grew up as a child Hollywood star, following in her Mother and Grandmother's footsteps, but Cilla is not happy with that life so she purchases the old family home in Virginia from her Mother, then moves there and starts rehabbing a house that has been left in disrepair for many years. It's not long before she realizes that there is someone in the town who does not want her there, leaving threats which scare her but she refuses to leave. Meantime, she has become friends with the good-looking guy who lives across the street (you knew this had to happen), and together they set out to find out who it is who doesn't want Cilla there, and why.

SALVATION IN DEATH
Book: Salvation in Death
Author: J. D. Robb
Jan's Rating: 6
I have LOVED all of J. D. Robb's "In Death" series of stores about Lt. Eve Dallas with the NYPD, but I had trouble getting into this one. I'm not sure if it was because I was busy with the holidays and just couldn't concentrate, or if it was the subject matter. I just kept thinking, "who cares why Lino left New York years ago?". However, I did finish the book and always admire Eve Dallas was of kicking butt with the bad guys and her relationship with her husband.
