Three Plums in One by Janet Evanovich (2001, Compact Disc)

I received two copies of Two for the Dough and one copy of Three to Get Deadly so I did not receive One for the Money. I did not particularly like the stories, they were a little more juvenile than I like. I think teenagers and young adults would like these books

Great. I have to drive around most every day for work. Audio books are wonderful. The Stephanie Plum series is new to me and I loved the ones I've listened to so far.

Still waiting for the product. Order confirmation 8-1 today is 9-4. Not very happy. It is making me add more information but i believe this sums it all up.

I love the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich. I listen to the audio CD's on my 30 min commute to and from work. I like the reader of these--Lori Petty, but I don't think you get the full Evanovich effect with the abridged version. It's not worth the time saved. Go with the unabridged versions; you will get lost in the story and time will fly by.

I love this series of books and I like listening to them on CD. I want to get the whole series on CD so I can have a copy of my own so I don't have to borrow them. I have been able to get several of them off ebay through different sellers and have been very pleased with the prices and condition of the books as well as the timelyness of the deliveries.

Even though these CDs are abridged they're close enough to the full book not to disturb the enjoyment of even the most hardcore Stephanie Plum fan. Driving two hour stretches three times a week these books on cd have been a life saver!

I love Janet Evanovich books, especially Stephanie Plum. Listening to her books helps me workday go faster.

I got this book after I had already read a few in the series and it was great to go back and see how the whole thing started.

Stephanie Plum is our heroine and she gets downsized out of her job. Most other jobs she can find, don't pay well or she's not good at, when she finds that her yecky cousin Vinny, has a bail bonds office and pays well to find bounty, she decides to give it a shot. So what if she hates guns and these people have the annoying habit of blowing up her cars??? For a few thousand a find, she can pay off her bills and get that cute pair of shoes.
Both her and Vinny knows she needs a mentor so he introduces her to the hottest and best bounty hunter around, Ranger. Who has a habit of calling her "babe" and makes her melt, when he's within 2 feet of her.

The three books fill in some of the back story of Lula, Vinny, Joe, Connie and Grandma, her parents, returning characters to all the following books.

Now that I have read the entire series I can say these first 3 aren't as well written as the last 3-4 in the series but it does flesh out the characters well for the reader.
All these books are light reading, funny with a bit of a mystery in each story. As the series goes on each book gets more complex and fun for the reader. You care about these characters and always want to get her "man" both the bounty and either Ranger or Joe.

Buying 3 Plums in One is a great deal, as all of the first 3 novels are in here. Good place to start the series or to purchase to complete your series.

I hope at some point they make these into movies or a TV series as it's too much fun to leave on the page!
