One for the Money by Janet Evanovich

One for the Money by Janet Evanovich was an interesting and intriguing book. The author kept the plot moving and suspenseful. The book started out with Stephanie telling about her past and different relationships, especially with Joe Morelli.

Stephanie started working for her cousin, Vinnie. She wanted to locate suspects who had skipped out of town and bring them back. Her first assignment was to bring back Joseph Morelli, whom she had known for years, but she hadn't seen him that much.

She decided to stop at his apartment and see if he was home. When she arrived, she first noticed that his mail box was full, so she walked to his apartment and knocked on the door. She didn't receive an answer, so she walked around and peeked through a window to see if anyone was inside, but nobody was home. After she talked to a neighbor, she walked back to her car and thought about what to do next.

Within a few minutes, she noticed Mooch carrying a duffel bag and walking up to Joe's apartment. She saw him take a key and walk into Joe's apartment. Stephanie continued to watch the apartment, and then saw Mooch walk outside without the duffel bag, so she knew that Joe had to be inside, or Mooch just left it there. She decided to walk to his apartment and knocked on the door. She suddenly found him face to face with Joe Morelli. She told him she was looking for someone name Joe Juniak. He told her that she had the wrong apartment. She started to leave, and then Joe Morelli suddenly knew who she was. He called her name, Stephanie Plum.

They talked for a while, and then she told Joe that she was there to bring him in since he didn't show up in court. He told her he wasn't going to jail, and he picked up the duffel back and walked out the back door to his car, so he could leave. He took off, and Stephanie drove back to Vinnie's office.

When she arrived, she asked for some help to capture Joe Morelli, so Connie, the secretary, told her that Ranger was the best one to work with because he's had a lot of experience, and he was creative in his work.

Stephanie and Ranger went to a restaurant so they could talk about the case that Stephanie had, which was to bring Joe Morelli back in to court. Stephanie told Ranger everything she knew about the case, and then she asked him if he would help her. He wanted to start by getting her dressed appropriately as a tracker, but Stephanie told him that she didn't have any money except for just a little that she had been saving.

Stephanie first talked to Joe's mother about him and if she knew where he disappeared to, but that didn't help, so she continued her investigation. She talked to Benito Ramirez, but that didn't work out either. She wanted to leave, but he grabbed her and wouldn't let her. Benito called himself the champ, and he told her that nobody was going to tell him what to do. He told her that he gets what he wants.

Suddenly, there were gun shots, and Stephanie managed to escape, and became face to face with Joe Morelli. He happened to rescue Stephanie, who had been hurt in her escape from Benito. Joe walked Stephanie to her car, and then he left. This was the second time Stephanie confronted Joe Morelli, and he escaped.

What will happen to her next? Will she catch Joe Morelli and bring him in to court? You'll have to read the book to find out what happens.

This book was intriguing, and I wanted to keep reading it to find out if Stephanie could actually handle her job of bringing in guys who skipped out on their court appearances. If you enjoy reading suspenseful books, you'll enjoy this book.

Book Review: And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie

Are you looking for an intriguing mystery book? If you are, And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie is a must read.

Agatha Christie, who wrote during the Golden Age Period of literature, was a very popular Detective Fiction writer. Her famous detectives were Tommy and Tuppence, Hercule Poirot, and Miss Marple.

Throughout the book, Agatha Christie maintained the suspense so that readers wanted to continue reading until they reached the conclusion.

Someone invited ten people to Indian Island, and when the guests gathered together, nobody knew who sent them the invitation or why. People made Indian Island sound like a luxurious place to have a vacation, so when the ten people received their invitations, they wanted to stay at the island and see if it really was luxurious even though they didn't know who invited them.
They were also eager to find out the identity of their mysterious host.

During this time, the guests shared their lives, and someone played a recording about each one of the guests. This startled the guests because the recording mentioned the crime that each person had committed, and all of the guests were found guilty.

One by one, each person was killed according to each verse in the rhyme. The characters attempted to remain together because they didn't know who was going to be the next victim, and they felt safer being together. However, at night they locked themselves in their rooms, so that nobody could enter their bedrooms at night when they slept. The characters also attempted to investigate the case because they wanted to find out the identity of the killer.

The book was well written and full of suspense. One thing I especially liked about Agatha Christie's books was the clean language. All of her books are for anyone who wants to read interesting and intriguing mysteries. I would recommend And Then There Were None. All of her books that I have read are excellent and intriguing.

At the end of the book, the detectives discussed the incidents at Indian Island and attempted to figure out the killer's identity. However, they couldn't come to a conclusion. The killer confessed in the end, but he or she still wasn't caught and arrested.

Now, you'll have to read the book to find out what happened.I never knew what was going to happen in the book except for the clues the author presented throughout the book, which were revealed in the nursery rhyme, "Ten Little Indians." Someone posted this rhyme in every room for the guests to read and ponder, so they could investigate the case they were to solve.

And Then There were None by Agatha Christie was a great book. I wanted to continue reading it until the last page because I wanted to find out what was going to happen and who killed the people one by one.
