Journal Entry 6 by cougmax from Seattle, Washington USA on Thursday, August 24, 2006
pretty silly audio. I do agree that the author tries to make a "Greek" Janet Evanovich novel. The author even referes to Evanovich in the book saying that "Sophie has read all her books and relaxs by reading her favorite one over and over while sitting in the tub." There was so much build up from the beginning that I thought the ending would be a big show, but it fell flat and just wrapped everything up neatly, not very exciting. I don't think Sophie will have twelve novels as Evanovich's character now has...

This was a really good book -- I don't know who read it but for some reason I kept picturing friend rasher.

I was really surprised when I saw this in the bookbox, because when I saw burned CDs I immediately thought pirated audio books. When I posted on the forums asking what to do, a couple of Bookcrossers pointed out that some audiobook-selling websites, like Audible.com, do allow users to burn one physical copy of the books they purchase. I'm going to assume that's what happened here. I learned something new today!

Anyway. Never really got into the Evanovich books, so I don't think this one would appeal to me, either.

This book enjoyed a brief stop in San Jose, California before continuing its travels in booklady331's CD Only Bookbox!

So like the Stephanie Plum series I had to remind myself it wasn't. Here are a few ways it is a copy of Evonvich's work:

The parallels between the Plum series and this book are too many to count, but to name few:

1) Both leads work on the fringes of law enforcement (bounty hunter v. private investigator).
2) Both leads have sexy foreign "helpers" who send mixed romantic signals.
3) Both stumble into gun fights or other dangerous situations.
4) Both leads have eccentric families and mothers who think they don't eat enough.

I will find this a new home, but probably won't read another in the series unless it somehow ends up in my possession.

Enjoy! Going into BigJohnLefty's CD only bookbox to replace The Romanov Prophecy

This book has made a short stop at my house -- its second time here. It will continue on its journey until it finds its new home.

I nabbed this one out of BigJohnLefty's CD-only Audio Bookbox. Thanks to everyone for participating and passing along some great choices!

I checked out the reviews before picking it and I don't think I'll be bothered by similarities with the Stephanie Plum novels because I haven't read any of them! :)

Journal Entry 20 by Moody-Blue at Meers, Oklahoma USA on Sunday, August 23, 2015
Well, apparently the reason I've never read the Stephanie Plum books is because I'm just not that into P.I. stories. Trying to identify why, I think it's just because I know I'm being played -- that the author knows all of the answers but simply won't divulge them in a timely manner. So, that part of the book was annoying to me. I did like the Greek angle, even though it is soooo similar to the Greek Wedding family I often forgot they weren't one and the same. Maybe stereotypes of the Greek culture are more truth than fiction?
