14) No. Plum, (Stephanie Fourteen Fearless






0ur opinion:

:


Personal vendettas, hidden treasure, and a monkey named Carl will send bounty hunter Stephanie Plum on her most explosive adventure yet.



The Crime:  Armed robbery to the tune of nine million dollars



Dom Rizzi robbed a bank, stashed the money, and did the time. His family couldn’t be more proud. He always was the smart one. 



The Cousin:  Joe Morelli



Joe Morelli, Dom Rizzi, and Dom’s sister, Loretta, are cousins. Morelli is a cop, Rizzi robs banks, and Loretta is a single mother waiting tables at the firehouse. The all-American family.



The Complications:  Murder, kidnapping, destruction of personal property, and acid reflux



Less than a week after Dom’s release from prison, Joe Morelli has shadowy figures breaking into his house and dying in his basement. He’s getting threatening messages, Loretta is kidnapped, and Dom is missing.



The Catastrophe:  Moonman



Morelli hires Walter “Mooner” Dunphy, stoner and “inventor” turned crime fighter, to protect his house. Morelli can’t afford a lot on a cop’s salary, and Mooner will work for potatoes.



The Cupcake:  Stephanie Plum



Stephanie and Morelli have a long-standing relationship that involves sex, affection, and driving each other nuts. She’s a bond enforcement agent with more luck than talent, and she’s involved in this bank-robbery-gone-bad disaster from day one.



The Crisis:  A favor for Ranger



Security expert Carlos Manoso, street name Ranger, has a job for Stephanie that will involve night work. Morelli has his own ideas regarding Stephanie’s evening activities.



The Conclusion:  0nly the fearless should read Fourteen.



Thrills, chills, and incontinence may result.

Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - * Wonderful ...
In the 14th installment of thi series, Janet has out done herself, bringing laughter in so many places, and so many ways. Her quirky characters almost make me want to visit Trenton to see if there are really people like this out there. Her humor, and the inclusion of a monkey, just shows how far she has come, and what a joy it is to read her writings, and the continuing adventures of Stephanie Plum.
From the break in at Joe's, to Grandma shooting people to keep them out of his house, this book is well worth the read.



Buyer's feedback: 4 out of 5 stars - Serious vs Plum
If you want a serious mystery, the Plum series is not for you. If Stephanie becomes more mature, successful and maternal, she won't be funny. That is what the books are. The story lines are interesting, the people are hilarious and loveable. They are all extremes of the people in our own lives or would like in our lives. The best thing is, I have never made it through a book without laughing out loud and have never closed a book at the end without a smile on my face. In Fearless Fourteen, the potato gun episode alone is worth the price of the book. So what if you don't know who the toes belonged to. There are so many serious books out there. So many sad, depressing stories. There aren't many that leave you happy. If you want serious, read someone else for a while. If you want to feel better, read Evanovich.



Buyer's feedback: 3 out of 5 stars - * Fearless Fourteen ...
The seller didn't mention it was a large print book at a bigger than normal size. It doesn't quiet fit in with my collection.



Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - Been waiting for this one for a long time...
I reserved this book at my local library and was told I'd have to wait months to get it. As luck would have it, I was out of town the week it came in, and was put at the bottom of the list, only to be told I'd have to wait three more months. Amazon had such a great price on the book, I didn't have to wait. I guess Janet Evanovich is more people's guilty pleasure than I thought.



Buyer's feedback: 1 out of 5 stars - * How disappointing can she make me.... ...
feel about the characters I've come to love and know in the first 12 books?? How is it that authors who run series characters do not know when they've lost the ability to create a good read? And how is that the publishers keep printing these pieces of garbage? I, for one, no longer purchase/read the likes of David Patterson, Patricia Cornwell and now I'm afraid I'll be adding JE to that category. What a waste of a forest of trees....

I don't feel the need to repeat most of the one- and two-star reviews except to say DITTO and I feel sad....

Lucario and the Mystery of Mew, the eighth Pokémon movie, ranks as one of the best features in this popular franchise. Director Kunihiko Yuyama and writer Hideki Sonoda sensibly keep the adventures and threats to a scale that's appropriate for the characters. (The first movies put the world at risk, and while Ash Ketchum is a good kid, he's not someone who can credibly save the planet.) Ash, Brock, Max, and May journey to Cameron Palace for a tournament that celebrates the valor of Prince Aaron, who saved the realm from destruction 1,000 years ago. Ash and Pikachu win, but the mischievous Mew kidnaps Pikachu, whom he's befriended. Prince Aaron's Pokémon companion Lucario awakens from the victor's staff to lead Ash and the gang to the Tree of Beginning, a mountain that is also a living entity. Ash risks his life to rescue Pikachu, proving the depth of their friendship to Lucario. The film includes lots of CG effects, most of which work well with the drawn animation: the earlier Pokémon films tended to look like two different movies spliced together.

The two-disc set also includes The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon: A 10th Anniversary Special. In this 40-minute adventure, Dr. Yung invites Misty and Ash to take part in a special tournament on his new battle system. Yung creates formidable Mirage Pokémon from raw data, culminating in a super-version of Mewtwo, the powerful psychic Pokémon from the first features. Once again, friendship and kindness triumph over greed and arrogance, although the special ends with the words, "To be continued..." (Unrated, suitable for ages 8 and older: cartoon violence) --Charles Solomon

A CD is always more compelling when you know it's lifted from the artist's autobiography, and that's certainly the case with Confession, Usher's first record since 2001's 8701. The Atlanta singer's string of hits over the past decade have been decidedly PG-13 rated, almost veering towards teen pop, but he's changed all that on this co-produced offering, which he claims is "the real him." It would be too simplistic to just brand this record a break-up record, chronicling his public split with TLC's Rozonda "Chili" Thomas; it is that, but so much more. It would be more accurate to call this Usher's coming of age record, bridging the gap from boy to man, as he navigates the emotional fallout from the disintegration of his relationship, and the events that led up to it--real or imagined. But other than a guilty conscience, it seems unclear why Usher feels compelled to disgorge his secret life, as he documents his infidelities, transgressions, and emotional perfidy in the album's prodigious twenty one songs, that range from insinuating sultry R&B grooves to the decidedly crunky "Yeah," which pairs an insistent keyboard romp with Lil' Jon's assertive beats, and Ludacris' rather humid rhymes. --Jaan Uhelszki

Fade to Black is a document of Jay-Z’s self-proclaimed final concert; a grand affair that took place before a sold-out crowd at New York’s Madison Square Garden in November 2003. (But anyone who follows celebrity news knows that Jay-Z was out of retirement and back performing at the Garden just a year later.) Fade to Black is a legitimately powerful record of a truly historic event in the annals of rap. Muttering offhand narration with typical bored, streetwise affect, Jay hails the concert as a momentous occasion for being the first time a hip-hop show was allowed to headline at the Garden.

It’s unlikely that the full impact of the live performances will hit home to viewers unfamiliar with Jay-Z and his Roc-A-Fella Records stable of artists. Another frustration is trying to identify the array of visitors who trade raps on Jay’s stage. Included in the star-studded lineup are Missy Elliott, Foxy Brown, Pharell, Ghostface Killah, Beanie Sigel, Memphis Bleek, and R. Kelly. One unmistakable figure--and we do mean figure--is Jay’s squeeze Beyonce, who raises the temperature and the roof with her skimpy outfit, flowing hair, soulful yowl, and sexed-up dance routine that leaves her boyfriend and the whole of Madison Square Garden slack-jawed with animal desire.

Twenty cameras captured the event, and some of the most powerful sequences are sweeping moves across the swirling, blissed-out masses as they lip sync along in perfect unison with Jay-Z’s complex, profane, quick-witted raps. Less effective are intermittent cutaway segments that show the artist in various studio settings working up beats and rhymes. These amateurish home video breaks may give some insight to Jay’s perfectionism and dedication to his craft, but they detract from the visceral power of the beautifully executed performance footage. --Ted Fry

On his third studio effort (and fourth overall), 22-year-old R&B/pop star Usher Raymond makes the not-so-simple transition from post-teen heartthrob to love man. He does it with solid songs and a generous helping of charisma and vocal acumen, making this much-delayed collection a hot summer treat. Usher is aided in his musical efforts by renowned hit-makers like the Neptunes, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis (who deliver soaring ballads like "Can U Help Me"), Jermaine Dupri, and new jack Edmund Clement who penned the irresistible single "U Remind Me." With catchy tracks and emotive vocals, Usher revs up his sex quotient and unleashes a winning blend of street-honed jams and passionate love songs. --Amy Linden
