Metro Girl (Abridged) Audiobook

" This was my first Janet Evanovich book and I'd give it 3.5 stars. She is an entertaining writer and I look forward to reading more of her books "

" I love Janet Evanovich and will read anything she writes. However, this is not on the same par as the Stephanie Plum books. But it's fun and an easy read and definitely along the same lines as the Plum books. I can see where she's building up to another series and I would continue to stick with them. I needed some mindless entertainment and this filled the bill perfectly. I'm not a NASCAR fan, so that was kind of a turn-off, but I loved the Miami angle and the characters are fun. "

" funny..,.I read Evanovich as 'sorbets' between the meatier books "

" Excellent beach read! Funny, good tale, liked it much better than the Stephanie Plum mystery I read. "

" My favourite out of all of Miss Evanovich's books. "

" not as good as the other series. she's trying to do much as with all good series, they are starting to fade out. I am so bummed! "

" I am a huge fan of Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series, and I thought this was even funnier. Pure fluff, but som eof the best fluff out there! "

" It was a suspenseful, unrealistic, "chick" novel. I was surprised that it kept my attention for the duration. There was a lot of plot build-up leaving the reader wondering what will happen next. "

" I liked the heroine better than I like Stephanie Plum. This book was an audiobook and I've got to say, I enjoyed the narrator of the Stephanie Plum series a lot more. "

" Similar to the Plum Series, but enough different to still enjoy it! "

" Alexandra (Barney) Barnaby roars onto the Miami Beach scene in search for her missing brother, "Wild" Bill. Search gets her involved with Nascar drive, Sam Hooker, who's good at revving her motor. "

" A quick fun read - as usual, J.E. didn't disappoint! "

" I found a lot of things in it that reminded of Stephanie Plum. I wanted this to be different enough that I didn't feel Stephanie. That didn't happen for me. "

" While her characters are somewhat predictable if you've read her Stephanie Plum series, they never fail to entertain. "

" Another great book by Janet Evanovich! "

" very similar to Stephanie Plum, only she's not as uncoordinated... "

" I thaught this was a comical story. I enjoyed the witty conversations between the main characters, the secondary characters are hilarious and make the story that much more interesting. I would recommend this book. "

" I like Janet Evanovitch but if you've read the Stephanie Plum books, you've read this (and Motor Mouth) as well. Same plot and crazy characters but in a different location. Just remember that you aren't in New Jersey anymore. "

" Fun story, good quick read. Wasn't as engaged by the characters as I am by the ones in the Stephanie Plum stories, but a good distraction. "

" Her books are fun, "campy" books. Very easy to read (usually in about 4 hours). They are like watching a sitcom. I enjoy them when I don't really want to think too hard. "

" I didn't really like this one. Seems like she's a completely different author with these books. It had its moments where I laughed out loud, but still.. not as good as Plum. Still going to read the next one though. "

" Some humorous moments but not one of Evanovich's best. "

" This is a great read! It's almost romance but it doesn't quite go all the way and there is definitely a little mystery and suspense. Definitely worth the $$ and worth the sequel! "

" Not quite the same as Stephanie Plum, but still entertaining. "

" it was a really easy read, not the deepest book i've ever read but a casual beach read. "

" Meh. It felt a little called-in. I didn't make me laugh the way Evanovich's One for the Money series does. I enjoyed the South Florida setting. The action stayed constant, which was good, but I am not sure how much I cared about the characters. "

" I like Janet Evanovich's style of writing, different characters, funny story! "

" A quick entertaining read. "

" Up to this point I had only read the Stephanie Plum serious. The story line is very similar with a different character. Once again very easy reads. If you the love the Plum series you will like this one too. "

" Wish I had friends who had friends like these. Barney got a phone call from her brother in the middle of the night ending with a womans scream! She jumps on a plane to "save him"! Sorry, but I had to laugh at some of the trouble she got into in this adventure! Another super fun read! "

" Heroine goes to Miami to rescue brother - meets macho NASCAR guy - saves the day. fun to read "

" Perfect weekend getaway book. Not as much language in this as the Stephanie Plum novels, which was a breath of fresh air. "

" couldn't stand this book but finished it because it was an audiobook. i think it was the voice i didn't like. "

" Alex and Hooker into international waters, exposing a plot to grab Cuban gold and a sinister relic of the Cuban missile crises. "

" This is a normal far fetched "fluff" book for me that is a quick and easy read. I did not find this as funny as they Stephanie Plum series but did have a couple moments of laugh outs. Although I keep reading more for Slick and Gimpy's sake as opposed to the whole plot of the story "

" This isn't a Stephanie Plum book which for me was a nice change. This is another Evanovich book that can be read in a long afternoon. As with all of her books there are passages that are laugh out loud funny. "

" I thought this was a great book! It was fun to read & didn't want to put it down so I read it in a night! I read it a few years back and still like to re-read it every once in a while.Enjoy! "

" I enjoy the quirky book and looking forward the next one. "

" Metro Girl introduces a new set of characters but with the same fun, snarky, irreverent style we've come to love in Stephanie Plum novels. Definitely a "must read" for Janet Evanovich fans. "

" Ms. Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series is one of my all time favorite series so my expectations were very high for this new novel. Unfortunately they were not met. The book was just not as engaging nor as witty as I expected it to be. "
