Two For the Dough Book Review

Two for the Dough (Stephanie Plum, No. 2) (Stephanie Plum Novels) by Janet Evanovich was on my list of books to read this year.  This was the next in the series so I reserved it at the library and was excited when it came in.  I got the second and the third one so that I could move from one to the next quickly (I already assumed that it was going to be great).

In this book, Stephanie Plum, bounty hunter for her cousin Vinnie, is on the hunt for Kenny Mancuso, a criminal that jumped bail.  Her life turns upside down when she links Kenny to many of his friends and tries to find a missing piece to know where he is hiding.  Each piece she uncovers puts her in greater danger.  She is working with Joe Morelli, local New Jersey cop who she went to high school with.  Joe and Stephanie work together to try to find Kenny (who also happens to be Joe's cousin).  At the same time, Stephanie is working for the local morturary owner's son, Spiro, to protect him from Kenny.  All of the mysteries resolve themselves in an amazing conclusion but you have to pick up the book and find out what happens!

I was really excited to get on to the next book in the series.  It was great to follow after the book and movie to see what happened next with the great characters.  It didn't let me down with lots of action and jokes with Stephanie Plum and all of the other characters.  I do hope that this might mean that there is a second movie coming with the additional books!!!  I can always hope.  I hope that you pick up this series at your local library or bookstore (starting at the beginning to get the characters history) and enjoy them as much as I have!!  Have you read any of the Janet Evanovich books?  They are all on my list this year so we will see if I can catch up to the series before the year is over :)
