Book Review: One for the Money

One For The Money (Stephanie Plum, #1)One For The Money by Janet Evanovich

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


This was such a fun book!  I love the main character, Stephanie.  I also really  really liked Joe Morelli.  Okay, i think I loved all the characters.  It was pretty much just like the movie, which I really liked as well. 
There was a small amount of swearing, but it wasn't the "let's just put in unnecessary swear words so people will think I'm a grown up" type.  It is actually how the characters would talk.  I mean, they are tough bounty hunters, cops, and criminals in New Jersey.  I'm sure they talk a lot worse in reality.
They story was fun and unpredictable.  I'm starting on book two right now.

Injured

Jonah fell down the stairs a couple of weeks ago and broke his arm. Poor boy.  On a lighter note, the boys made their first snowman.  It took all the snow in the entire front yard.
I smashed my finger in the car door yesterday.  I honestly don't remember the last time something hurt so bad.  For two hours it felt like it was still in the car door.

Halloween

We went Trick or Treating with the Alsops and had a blast
Jerry and I ran a costume 10k.  It was so much fun, but we were robbed in the costume contest.  Ours was easily one of the best.  I think it might have been too complex for the judges.  I don't think they got the theme.

Wow, it only took 4 days for me to fail...

at blogging everyday!  I missed yesterday. Oh well.  It was inevitable.  It doesn't mean I'm giving up.  I'll post twice today.

A couple of days ago, Jonah  (my 4 yr. old) turned to me at breakfast and said "Mom, the Chick-fil-a in Utah is very disappointing to me"

I almost blew milk out of my nose.  He cracks me up!

Book Review: An Echo in the Darkness

An Echo in the Darkness (Mark of the Lion, #2)An Echo in the Darkness by Francine Rivers

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I loved this book!  I finished it over a month ago, so I wish I could remember more about it, but I don't.  I just loved this series and can't wait to read the third one.
