I read one of the Plum novels

and it was ok. I had a hard time staying awake through it all, it didn’t

inspire me to buy another one. For light and funny, I like the Cat Who

Series (Lillian Braun I believe) and anything by s

(though some are better than others)

Hi!

s live in my town - Frederick,

land! She writes the Peabody novels,

doesn't she? I believe she also writes under the name

Barbara s....but I could be wrong about the

name, I know she does use a pseudonym for another

series she writes.

Amelia Peabody, but yes and I think it is

Barbara s. I enjoy her novels as s best though.

They are funny with heroines that are not perfect in beauty or temperament. I

get tired of the incredibly beautiful heroines who are lovely in all they do. I

like her series about Vicky Bliss too. I think she does series better than

single books. It always feels like her single books end so that she could write

another book about them. I find myself saying so what happened next lol…

no, it is best to start at the beginning of the series with 'one for

the money'. evanovich writes romances too and if you arent

interested in those then you dont want to end up with one by mistake.
