Description
New secrets, old flames, and hidden agendas are about to send bounty hunter Stephanie Plum on her most outrageous adventure yet!
MISTAKE #1
Dickie Orr
Stephanie was married to him for about fifteen minutes before she caught him cheating on her with her archnemesis, Joyce Barnhardt. Another fifteen minutes after that, Stephanie filed for divorce, hoping never to see either one of them again.
MISTAKE #2
Doing favors for super bounty hunter Carlos Manoso (aka Ranger)
Ranger needs Stephanie to meet with Dickie and find out if he's doing something shady. Turns out, he is. Turns out, Dickie's also back to doing Joyce Barnhardt. And it turns out Ranger's favors always come with a price. . . .
MISTAKE #3
Going completely nutso while doing the favor for Ranger, and trying to apply bodily injury to Dickie in front of the entire office
Now Dickie has disappeared, and Stephanie is the natural suspect in his disappearance. Is Dickie dead? Can he be found? And can Stephanie Plum stay one step ahead in this new, dangerous game? Joe Morelli, the hottest cop in Trenton, New Jersey, is also keeping Stephanie on her toes---and he may know more than he's saying about many things in Stephanie's life. It's a cat-and-mouse game for Stephanie Plum wherein the ultimate prize might be her life.
With Janet Evanovich's flair for hilarious situations, breathtaking action, and unforgettable characters, Lean Mean Thirteen shows why no one can beat Evanovich for blockbuster entertainment.

Same flavor, different package
"Thirteen" is good if you liked "Twelve"; if you did not, then skip it. Props to Ms Evanovich for the exploding taxidermy, for Grandma Mazur's continuing romantic exploits, for Tank and Lula's ongoing intrigue (we learn Tank's first name in this one), and for more plausible FTAs. It's a pleasure to see Stephanie becoming more capable and self-sufficent. Morelli is conveniently absent for much of the story and Stephanie is with Ranger. Both guys are likable characters, Ranger has more dimension than in the books before #12 but the continuing three-way with Ranger and Morelli is just not believable. (Steph, go with Ranger.) Glad there were not sightings of the idiot sister Valerie in this book. I get the impression that Ms. Evanovich is reframing her formula for these books and I like the change.

Plum Lovin'!
I am a Stephanie Plum fan and this is her best yet! It makes me wonder where we will go next with these original, sassy make-you-laugh-out-loud characters. If need a light-hearted, fun, feel-good read this is for you!

Plum Funny
Stephanie Plum is a "bounty hunter" extraordinaire who somehow manages to blow up a car or two in every book. Lula, her sidekick is an ex-"ho" who carries a Glock and seems to always be around when trouble starts. And trouble does follow Stephanie in her quest to track down her "skips", people who have missed their court dates. The two men in her life, Ranger (dark, dreamy and dangerous) and Morelli (100% sizzling Italian cop), are very protective of Stephanie and have found a way to work together to keep her from getting killed by the many crazy people in her life. This book is by far the funniest book in the series and I found myself laughing out loud many times while listening. In the interview after the book, the author offers some insight into a possible movie starring Sandra Bullock as Stephanie Plum. She said there was nothing in the works but that there might be something "someday". She said maybe the "Rock" for Ranger but didn't know who would play Morelli.

Oh to be able to write like that!
I love reading or listening to the Stephanie Plum series. Janet Evanovich and I have the same sense of humor, she just makes me laugh aloud. Since I listen to books on the treadmill or walking outdoors, I get strange looks when I double up laughing for no apparent reason. I have to point to my headphones! Seriously, if you haven't tried Evanovich, give her a whirl, you can start with this one, they really don't absolutely have to be read in the order that they were written. One caution, Debi Mazur read the early ones, she is the only audio reader I couldn't listen to, I had to read the books she recorded.

No heavy lifting
Stephanie Plum is always fun, entirely forgettable, and the equivelent of intellectual pablum. But that's okay. If you just want an easy, fun read, these books always do the job. But they also aren't real literature. If that's what you want, look elsewhere!

The Best!
I laugh my butt off everytime. Ms Evanovich is the greates and Lorelei King is the best! As far as I'm concerned it's the best. Ms Evanovich has not let me down yet when it comes to the Stephanie Plum character! Keep them coming!

Another Evanovich
Perhaps I have just read too many of her books, but there is definitely something missing when listening to this one. I truly enjoyed the first 9 of this series (I read those in print). They are laugh-out-loud books.

Not the best Stephanie Plum book
I've listened to all 13 Stephanie Plum's books and would rate this in the bottom three.
Ending was wierd and not believable.
Plot between Morelli and Ranger was boring...no suspense or drama. Not necessary bad, but when you read the other books, you expect some drama and suspense.
I expected better.

As usual...a riot!
The only bad thing about this book is that I'm done with it! Can't wait for 14!

I'll read the print
I have to say honestly that I didn't finish this book. I managed to get through 7 minutes and 38 seconds before I was incapable of listening to the horrible voice characterizations. This is the first Stephanie Plum I've listened to but have read all books leading up to it in print. While the reader's narration and Plum voice were fine the characters of Connie and Lula were awful. Being such a fan I was unable to take Lula sounding like a bad black male voice and Connie sounding like some Midwest nosy neighbor as opposed to an Italian Jersey lady. I'm sad that I wasted the credit and even sadder that I have to go and buy the book as well.

Nothing new but still fun
It's always a fun time when I can catch up on the adventures of Stephanie Plum. In 'Lean Mean Thirteen', Janet Evanovich puts Stephanie into another crazy situation that allows her to destroy her quota of cars and buildings!
Stephanie should do a favor for Ranger, she should plant a bug on Dickie, her former husband. Of course the meeting between the two does not go well. In fact, she has to be pulled off of Dickie in a wild rage. But when Dickie goes missing and his house shows signs of a struggle, blood and gunshots Stephanie is top on the list of murder suspects.
I suppose that when one writes a series of books featuring the same basic cast of characters success depends on keeping to the formula that worked the first time. In 'Lean Mean Thirteen' it's all back to the series' roots with characters and plot. The thirteenth entry is anything but unlucky. Indeed, I found this volume to be faster paced and funnier than some of the recent double-digits.
This is a great light read, or as in my case, the perfect listen for a 7 hours drive.
If for some reason you want to start listening to Stephanie's adventures here with number 13, don't. Do yourself a favor and go back to the beginning. Many laughs and thrills await you.
