Actual stars 4.5-4.75.

Four to Score is the hilarious fourth installment of the Stephanie Plum mystery series.
I could not stop laughing at the crazy jams Stephanie continually got herself in, which is now her signature style. Some of it is dumb luck and some of it using her bounty hunter skills (sort of) to locate her current bail jumper.

When I started this book I was thinking that I was probably going to get bored with this series soon. There is only so much you can do with Stephanie going afte Actual stars 4.5-4.75.

When I started this book I was thinking that I was probably going to get bored with this series soon. There is only so much you can do with Stephanie going after her "man" that isn't going to be repetitive after awhile. But that is not the case. Ms. Evanovich keeps her plots fresh by adding new and interesting characters to each book as well as building on the favorites I look forward to reading about.

In Four to Score she introduces Maxine's mother (Maxine is her current wanted fugitive) Mrs. Nowicki who is a chain smoking alcoholic that also has a love for smoking weed.
Then there's Sally Sweet, a 6'4" heterosexual transvestite in a all girl revue band who runs around on his time off clothed in drag sporting a scruffy beard and no makeup.
Bernie is the local weed dealer who sells his product in The Produce section in one of Trentons supermarkets. He has the unfortunate luck to look and act like a horny little troll that's willing to take "favors" in liew of money sometimes for his "special fruit".
And last but not least is Sugar. Sugar is Sally Sweets gay roommate who also dresses in drag and is part of The All Girl Revue Band. Sugar actually looks like a beautiful woman, unlike Sally. Unfortunately Sugar turns out to be a crazy unhinged psycho type of drag queen and when his love for Sally is it not returned he runs amok.

Throw all these crazy characters in the mix and a trail of people with missing body parts that seemed to be connected to Stephanie's new case and you get a recipe for a mystery with lots of mishaps and laughter with just a touch of scary. And with the continued saga of a possible relationship between Morelli and Stephanie there's a dash of romance as well.

After finishing Four to Score I can say without a doubt I am the opposite of bored with the series and look forward to reading more of Stephanie, Lula, and Grandma Mazur's adventures for a long time to come! ...more
