"All of Janet Evanovich's novels are a hoot but this one really had me giggling at the absurd things that went on. I loved this novel, it was light and easy to read. The characters were hilarious and the plot was really good. I found it interesting all the way through. Definitely a good read! "
— Mackenzie (5 out of 5 stars)
Lorelei King turns the hunt for the Gluttony stone into a wild romp…Evanovich fans won't be disappointed.
— AudioFile magazine" This book should have been TERRIBLE. Janet Evanovich writes ... not well at best. Her first person narrative is lame, the use of "my name is" as an opening line to introduce a character is pedestrian, there are so many things wrong with book including but not limited to: a Thor/Loki ripoff from the Avengers movie series, a reincarnated monkey and a cat with a glass eye. And yet, after awhile, I found the ridiculousness and dysfunction to charming. I like Diesel and Lizzy. The lack of sex was refreshing, although there was some fairly pedestrian, kind of clunky lusty scenes. Read by the pool while you're checking your email, if you concentrate any harder than that, you're head will hurt. "
— Carmela, 2/12/2014" Not enough of the story but loved it. "
— Katie, 1/16/2014" I started these books backwards. This was the second book of her's that I read & it captured me. If you work all day & just want to sit back & laugh this is the way to go. "
— Stephanie, 1/14/2014" This was a fun book! Very closely related to the Stephanie Plum books and situations, but there were a lot of laugh out loud moments. When Lizzy got hit with the gluttony charms and the entire Shirley episode made me laugh. "
— Kristin, 1/11/2014" An enjoyable, quick read that had me laughing out loud. Set in Salem, MA there was a bit of magic, a hint of romance (well maybe lust) and a race to find lost objects. "
— Chris, 1/6/2014" This is the 1st novel I have read by her and will probably be my last. Dumbest book ever in my opinion!!!!!! "
— Kathy, 12/8/2013" This is my 1st Janet Evanovich book but I loved it!!! I can't wait to read the next one!!! "
— Deanna, 12/5/2013" I read it a few years ago. It may be racier than what I read these days. It also has one of my favorite ingredients, if I recall correctly, supernatural power. "
— Aliza, 12/2/2013" Not my favorite of the series with diesel... Maybe because it's a new category on its self... But still looking forward to read the next one... "
— Tatiana, 11/20/2013" Very light fast read. Some humor. "
— Vicki, 11/17/2013" Fun and fast. Takes your mind offa things! "
— Angela, 11/14/2013" The sexual tension between Diesle and Lizzy is crazy as they battle to uphold oh I don't know man kind? Wulf isn't too bad himself, like a creepy Edward (Twilight) who wants to rule the world. This is a great vacation read. Take it with you or download it, you will love it! "
— Queenpaula, 10/21/2013" Not as side splitting as some of the Stephanie Plum novels, but definitely an interesting new little world for we fans to explore. "
— Lydia, 10/17/2013" This was the best book I ever read. I give it 5 stars. It was very funny. "
— Speedstick, 10/8/2013" Truly enjoyed this. Very very funny. "
— Erica, 9/22/2013" Loved this. Can't wait for the next one. "
— Katherine, 8/25/2013" Loved this book! I'm a Diesel fan along with the area the story takes place. A lot of new flavor and fun characters from Janet and I can't wait for more!! "
— Carrie, 8/25/2013" I did not like this book as well as some of her others. I'm not into the nonreal magic type story line. "
— Deb, 6/28/2013" Funny, quirky, spunky - classic Evanovich with a magical twist! Thoroughly enjoyed! "
— Tara, 6/18/2013" Quite enjoyed and would like to read another one "
— Anne, 6/5/2013" These are great! I am tempted to say they are better than Plum. "
— Genji, 5/17/2013" Light as puff pastry. It was very quick to read, only a few hours, some moments of whaaaa involving magical cars - models kept changing from parking to driving. All in all a fun light read to fill in from Ms. Plum. "
— Shari, 11/11/2012" Fast-paced and funny. Evanovich has assembled a cast of fun, quirky characters for this new series. I read through this one well beyond my bedtime. Tomorrow, I'll start in on the second one, Wicked Business. I hope there will be more. "
— Linda, 10/13/2012" I love the way Evanovich writes. And I could definitely see similarities between this series and the Stephanie Plum series. "
— Anna, 8/30/2012" I enjoyed reading this book. I haven't read a Janet Evanovich in many years, it was like coming home. "
— Kathleen, 6/10/2012" Very odd book. My first Evanovich book, probably not a good choice. "
— Kathy, 3/4/2012" Lizzy thinks Diesel and the Seven Deadly Sins cover everything her mother warned her about....Janet Evanvich rocks! "
— Tonya, 1/3/2012" It was a fun read. Pretty PG "
— Patti, 12/27/2011" No thinking involved, but fast paced and fun. "
— MARCIA, 10/28/2011" Not deep at all, but a lot of fun. "
— Betty, 6/23/2011" Quick read as always. Wish the tension between h & H had been stronger. Fun though. "
— Ally, 5/21/2011" Pure silliness. I wasn't going to read it, but then I did! "
— Ruth, 5/15/2011" Okay, I am addicted to Janet Evanovich. I have a huge stack of books to read, and yet I pick this one up first. I read it in two days and laughed out loud the entire time. Light, refreshing, funny. Now I can move on to more serious reading.... "
— Lisa, 5/15/2011" I can't wait for the next novels in this series. Fun, light read. Too similar to Stephanie Plum, but, hey. "
— Terry, 5/14/2011" I listened as an audio book. Fun story in Evanovich's usual funny style. "
— Fran, 5/14/2011" Characters are very shallow. The story is very linear and strange. I guess I just don't like her style. A 8th grader could have created a better story. "
— Sara, 5/14/2011" This book is a hoot. The story is good, the characters are great and some are from other Janet Evanovich books. I really liked some of the twists to this story. It had Janet's normal humor and fun, but with the new characters, you have a whole new series to look forward to. "
— Mark, 5/12/2011" Fun and entertaining. Thanks to my friend and coworker Cindy Akin for loaning this to me. I hope Carl and Cat pop up in a sequel. "
— Lori, 5/11/2011" This book started out good, but just when you get to the climax it falls off. Felt the ending should have had a little more action than it did. "
— Keri, 5/11/2011" I laughed so hard about the monkey that I choked. Read it for the monkey. "
— Betty, 5/6/2011" This seems to be the beginning of a new Diesel series. While it isn't laugh out loud funny, I like the characters, pacing and plot. "
— Kristina, 5/5/2011" Slow start but couldn't put it down once I got into it "
— Lynda, 5/4/2011" Another fun read by a fun-to-read author. A new heroine meets the irreverent, sexy Diesel. Good fun! "
