Out of bail skippers and rent money, Stephanie throws caution to the wind and follows in the entrepreneurial footsteps of Super Bounty Hunter, Ranger, engaging in morally correct and marginally legal enterprises. So, a scumball blows himself to smithereens on her first day of policing a crack house and the sheik she was chauffeuring stole the limo. But hey, nobody's perfect! Anyway, Stephanie has other things on her mind. Her mother wants her to find Uncle Fred who's missing after arguing with his garbage company; homicidal rapist Benito Ramirez is back, quoting scripture and stalking Stephanie; vice cop Joe Morelli has a box of condoms with Stephanie's name on it; and Stephanie's afraid Ranger has his finger on her trigger. The whole gang's here for mirth and mayhem in Janet Evanovich's High Five. Listen at your own risk in public places.

"Listening to the book on cd while I drive. The narrator is fantastic!Verdict: Very entertaining- suspenseful, funny AND sexy. I know that listening to these books cuts into my valuable NPR time, but I just have to request #6. I can't wait to find out what's coming next for Stephanie! "

Actress Mazar has just the right sassy streetwise accent to fit the first-person voice of Evanovich's hero, Stephanie Plum. Mazar sounds poised yet real in her role as the New Jersey-based bounty hunter. She gamely throws herself into the dramatic ‘bits' along the way, playing out the dialogue scenes with relish.
— Publishers Weekly" I love the Stephanie Plum series! Laugh out loud good! "
— Kathleen, 2/16/2014" Stephanie continues to have an interesting life as a bail bonds person. "
— Jacquelynn, 2/9/2014" I actually liked this book best so far. They're getting quite addicting at this point. "
— Lauren, 2/5/2014" I just love this series! This episode ended with such a cliff hanger I ran to the library to get the next one. Love, love it! "
— Kara, 2/4/2014" Another good one. As always, easy, fun read with really likable characters. "
— Ocean, 2/2/2014" I think this is the fastest one yet! Don't get me wrong, I really do like these books (otherwise I wouldn't be reading so many) but they are not exactly literary you know? Also, I think I'm understanding Janet E. a little more because I totally pegged the culprit the first time she revealed the character. They are just so funny and entertaining which I really feel I need right now for some reason. I really love the Lula and Grandma Mazur characters too... "
— Jasmine, 1/31/2014" Evil ending. I have to read the next one to find out more. Love these books though! "
— Monique, 1/30/2014" This one nearly killed me until I got my hands on book six!!! "
— Jenn, 1/20/2014" I've learned not to eat or drink while reading the Stephanie Plum books, because there is always at least one spot where it would be very messy otherwise. Definitely funny! "
— Elaine, 1/11/2014" I really have enjoyed these books. Critt does a good job reading the books and Evanovich transports me to a different world while I am taxiing my children to all their activities. These are always good for quite a few chuckles. "
— Jules, 1/3/2014" Cliff hanger. I hope the next one comes in to the library for me tomorrow!!! "
