Let me just say, I'm a HUGE fan of Evanovich's books. OK, yes, I've only read One for the Money, but I own the rest of the books in the Stephanie Plum series and am planning to read them all some time. So, with that in mind, I purchased Pros and Cons, expecting to get the same wit and style of a Stephanie Plum novel, but sadly, I got mediocre writing and a plot reminiscent of the plot in One for the Money. My overall opinion is that the only part Evanovich had in this novel was allowing Goldberg to create an FBI agent and a villain similar to the characters in her Stephanie Plum novels. No originality here. The only redeeming qualities of this novella are the clever dialogue and spot-on humor, and the fact that it takes only ten minutes to read. At $0.99 it's not a complete waste of money, but I wouldn't suggest paying anything more for it. I won't be reading this series and will stick with Stephanie Plum instead.
