Top Secret Twenty-One by Janet Evanovich
Top Secret Twenty-One by Janet Evanovich Book Summary
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Don’t miss Janet Evanovich’s short story “Pros and Cons” in the back of the book.
Catch a professional assassin: top priority. Find a failure-to-appear and collect big bucks: top score. How she’ll pull it all off: top secret.
Trenton, New Jersey’s favorite used-car dealer, Jimmy Poletti, was caught selling a lot more than used cars out of his dealerships. Now he’s out on bail and has missed his date in court, and bounty hunter Stephanie Plum is looking to bring him in. Leads are quickly turning into dead ends, and all too frequently into dead bodies. Even Joe Morelli, the city’s hottest cop, is struggling to find a clue to the suspected killer’s whereabouts. These are desperate times, and they call for desperate measures. So Stephanie is going to have to do something she really doesn’t want to do: protect former hospital security guard and general pain in her behind Randy Briggs. Briggs was picking up quick cash as Poletti’s bookkeeper and knows all his boss’s dirty secrets. Now Briggs is next on Poletti’s list of people to put six feet under.
To top things off, Ranger—resident security expert and Stephanie’s greatest temptation—has been the target of an assassination plot. He’s dodged the bullet this time, but if Ranger wants to survive the next attempt on his life, he’ll have to enlist Stephanie’s help and reveal a bit more of his mysterious past.
Death threats, highly trained assassins, highly untrained assassins, and Stark Street being overrun by a pack of feral Chihuahuas are all in a day’s work for Stephanie Plum. The real challenge is dealing with her Grandma Mazur’s wild bucket list. A boob job and getting revenge on Joe Morelli’s Grandma Bella can barely hold a candle to what’s number one on the list—but that’s top secret.

I'm disappointed .. I'm disappointed of this new book I was expecting more of Ranger life, motive to do what he's do in the rescue think and at least Stephanie, be a little more secure of what she wants and there was no important secrets.
Very enjoyable read.. 😊
Top Secret Twenty One. Loved this book! Love Janet Evanovich! She’s one of the few authors that make me laugh out loud reading her books. Stephanie Plum keeps getting better and better.
Not as good. These books just aren’t as fun as they used to be
Great series!. Janet never fails to deliver! I've read all 21, most more than once, and I've never been disappointed; I can't put them down! Stephanie Plum is a pretty hilarious heroine. Definitely worth a read!
Predictable. Although I will keep reading the series as long as she continues to write them, the Stephanie Plum series has become predictably boring.....While the characters remain as entertaining as they've been from the beginning, the stories are predictable, boring and lacking any true mystery or intrigue. There hasn't been any laugh out loud, bring tears to your eyes in the past several installments to this series. Evanovich has become similar to Danielle Steele's books.....predictably boring.
Awful. Really awful.. Wow. I swore after the giraffes that I was done with Stephanie Plum. I couldn't imagine anything worse than that storyline. Of course, I hadn't yet read this book... a convoluted plot, Grandma Mazur who wasn't funny, Lula who had no reason to be included and, amazing as it may be, Ranger and Morelli who are no longer sexy or even slightly interesting. (How does that happen?). I had hopes for Briggs but nothing materialized. After years of enjoying this series, I am done. JE has lost her credibility by continuing to churn out this trite, sophomoric crap. It's time to let Stephanie join the ranks of the Button Factory and let us remember when these characters were laugh-out-loud funny.
Really?!?. I love this series, but the last few books were boring. It's always the same thing. I can pretty much predict what's going to happen. She needs to concentrate more on developing a relationship between Stephanie and Ranger or Moreli. I think that's the only reason I still read this series. But 21 books later and still nothing.
Why do I still buy these books. I've read the same Stephanie plum novel for the 21st time. Says a lot for me. This will be my last.
Always Funny and Enjoyable. Every time…. Makes me literally lol. Keep them coming!
Re-run. Don't waste your money, it's the same story as the last ten books. I've read everything she's ever written but I'm done. Nothing new or exciting !!
A new idea. What Janet really needs to do is end the series with Stephanie not choosing Ranger or Morelli, but some completely different guy, preferably one not from NJ. He will charm her mother, be able to engage her father, encourage grandma, love the Buick and sweep Stephanie off the hamster wheel of a life she lives. Her hamster is a metaphor for her entire life!
More of the same but that's OK. I'd love to see the characters evolve, but I guess that's not what this series is about. So I've tamed any expectations and take each book for what it is. I still enjoy the humor, who dun it plots (holes and all), and exploding cars. And I continue to change my mind about Team Ranger or Team Morelli.
Top Secret Twenty-One. Please don't waste your money! This is the same old, same old. I've read every one of the Stephanie Plum novels, this is by far the worst in terms of plot, characters or story line. It says it's 350 pages, it's not even 300!! The last 50 pages are a new novel she's trying to promote and, no, it's not good ole Stephanie. Don't say I didn't warn you.
Top Secret Twenty One. Great book, Janet Evanovich never lets you down. Fun, easy read, enjoyable I love finding out what's happening next with Grandma Mazur, I find myself laughing out loud at her antics Ranger, Joe, and Stephanie although I would like to see Stephanie cross the unspoken line with Ranger again. These books cannot be written and published fast enough for me. Love Them!
This Book is Not Out. How can I rate a book that is not out yet?
21 and done. I've read all the books in this series but I won't read another one. The last couple of books are all the same.
Twenty One. I have read all 21 Stephanie Plum books and enjoyed every one. I laughed out loud at on place in this one. I keep hoping for much more of Stephanie and Ranger. Morelli is boring. spend more time with Ranger.
Top Secret Twenty-One. This is the 21st book in the Stephanie Plum series. These books are laugh out loud funny. Stephanie Plum is a bail bondsman who gets into some ridiculous situations while trying to get criminals back to jail to be rebonded, all the while helping her two on-off boyfriends corner criminals. You'll love these books!
Get on with it. I've been reading this series for about 10 years now. If feels as though with each book Janet is losing interest in writing about Stephanie. As sad as it is I think this series needs to come to an end... Or move on to the next story line in it.
Top secret twenty one. Getting to be like all the others. But still has a few good moments. Time to move on to the climax.
More less the same. I keep reading these books, hoping something significant will happen. Never does, more less the same as all the rest. Waste of money and waste of time. Left disappointed as always.
Love all her books!. This book is like all the others a great fun read!!! Grandma Mazur now has a bucket list and actually accomplishes a few of those things on her bucket list! I can't wait for book 22!
Like Reading the Same Book Over and Over Again. I stopped buying the books a long time ago in favor of checking them out at my local library instead. It's just not worth it anymore. The last 4 or 5 books are pretty much the same book. Not really anything new, no evolving of characters, same situations. The books can still be a fun little read, but I've given up on expecting anything to actually happen. I think the series has run its course...time to wrap it up.
Lacking. I love this series. I love the author. However the last few books, and this one specifically, seemed ... Off somehow. This book wasn't nearly as engaging or entertaining as her earlier books. It was like it was written just to meet a deadline. It had a good plot but the writing was bland. It seemed like the author was preoccupied while writing this. I hope this doesn't mean this series will die off. It was, is, one of my favorites.
Same story as last 20 books... I already know how each is going to end. Nothing happens but tension between Stephanie and Ranger. No evolving with Morelli. And she constantly explains the characters. I don't need to be reminded who family and friends are including back stories. I don't know if she reads these reviews but i refuse to buy anymore. I actually want my money back!!! Please change up the formula! Have the characters evolve. Absolutely stale. Too bad because the initial story was great.
Top secret twenty-one. Will not purchase the next book in series. Too much repeat. Wrap it up already.
Janet Evanovich Top Secret Twenty-One. I just love visiting with Stephanie, Lula, Morelli and Ranger. Twenty-One was non-stop fun. Can't wait for Twenty-Two.
not as funny as you think. I read review from other sources and it was laugh out loud, not so much. The story line was ok. Didn't care for the sexual content or the f word. Other than that, well written and engaging .
Great!. Love it! When do we get #22?
Fun. Always a fun read :)
Top secret twenty-one. I liked the book. I just wish there was alot more going on with Stephanie & Ranger. Those two are the only reason I bought the book. Morelli is not interesting at all. Ranger & Stephanie needs to be Getting on.
