BLOWN UP
All New Jersey bounty hunter Stephanie Plum has to do is bring in semi-retired bail jumper Eddie DeChooch. For an old man he's still got a knack for slipping out of sight--and raising hell. How else can Stephanie explain the bullet-riddled corpse in Eddie's garden? Who else would have a clue as to why two of Stephanie's friends suddenly vanished? For answers Stephanie has the devil to pay: her mentor, Ranger. The deal? He'll give Stephanie all the help she needs--if she gives him everything he wants . . .

MESSED UP
As if things weren't complicated enough, Stephanie's just discovered her Grandma Mazur's own unmentionable alliance with Eddie. Add a series of unnerving break-ins, not to mention the bombshell revelation leveled by Stephanie's estranged sister, and Stephanie's ready for some good news. Unfortunately, a marriage proposal from Joe Morelli, the love of her life, isn't quite cutting it. And now--murder, a randy paramour, a wily mobster, death threats, extortion, and a triplie kidnapping aside--Stephanie's really got the urge to run for her life . . .

Product Description

From Amazon

Bounty hunter Stephanie Plum's got a lot on her mind. How does cigarette smuggler Eddie DeChooch, a fugitive so geriatric that even the hot-to-trot Grandma Mazur won't go out with him a third time, keep giving her the slip? How did a woman who died of a heart attack end up in DeChooch's garden shed with five bullet holes in her chest? Who stole a rump roast from Dougie and Mooner, the two lovable potheads who have decided to be crime fighters in Spandex bodysuits? Can Stephanie's perfect sister Valerie make it as a lesbian single mother without driving her family crazy? And--oh yeah--what should Stephanie do about that damn wedding dress on hold at Tina's Bridal Shoppe, waiting for her to decide whether vice cop Joe Morelli's really the one for her?

I did look good in the gown. I looked like Scarlett O' Hara getting ready for a big wedding at Tara. I moved around a little to simulate dancing.

"Jump up and down so we can see how it'll look when you do the bunny hop," Grandma said.

"It's pretty but I don't want a gown," I said.

"I can order one in her size at no obligation," Tina said.

"No obligation," Grandma said. "You can't beat that."

"As long as there's no obligation," my mother said.

I needed chocolate. A lot of chocolate. "Oh gee," I said, "look at the time. I need to go."

To complicate matters further, Stephanie's made a reluctant deal with the devil: if she can't bring in DeChooch by herself, her sexy but dangerous cohort Ranger is willing to help--for a price that a girl who's not-exactly-engaged is uncertain whether she should pay. But when Dougie and Mooner disappear, Grandma is kidnapped, and a crazy widow starts taking pot shots, no one who hides her .38 in a cookie jar is going to turn down a little friendly assistance.

In Seven Up, Janet Evanovich serves up her usual bubbly fare: a totaled car, raucous viewings at Stiva's Funeral Parlor, buffoonish bad guys, and down-and-dirty mud wrestling, all stirred up with some snappy Jersey repartee and a few tart, new twists that will keep her fans impatient. Heaven can't wait for number eight. --Barrie Trinkle --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

From Publishers Weekly

It's always a treat to go out on a case with Stephanie Plum, the sassy, adventurous, but not always successful Trenton, N.J., bounty hunter. In her seventh outing (after 2000's Hot Six), Stephanie's employer, her bailbondsman cousin, Vinnie, gives her an easy job: pick up vicious senior citizen Eddie DeChooch, who is constantly sighted racing around Trenton in a borrowed white Cadillac, but whom no one can grab. The usual characters inhabit the novel: Steph's former high school buddies, the zonked-out Dougie and Mooner; and Evanovich's best creation, feisty Grandma Mazur. Stephanie's much-resented sister Valerie returns from California with her two daughters, her "perfect" marriage ended, and moves in with her parents, to their dismay. At times the plot meanders: Stephanie and pal Lula spend too much time running from house to house in the inbred Burg neighborhood, while two semi-retired crooks looking for DeChooch keep breaking into her apartment for little reason. All in all this is another zesty Evanovich read, but one that doesn't quite hit the high marks of her last two.

4.0 out of 5 stars R227 May 24 2013
By R227
Format:Audio CD
I started listening to Janet Evanovich audio books while I drove a long-haul transport truck and from the very first book I was hooked. I think a lot of it had to do with the humour that runs straight thru the book but I also think it had a lot to do with Lorelei King and the talented way she was able to take on the characters voices and keep them consistent throughout the book. The voices she gave the characters brought them to life and although there have been other readers (Lori Petty, Debi Mazar and others) none are as talented as Ms. King. At one point (I forget which one it was) there was an interview at the end of the story and Ms. Evanovich said that the voices Ms. King provided were the exact voices Ms. Evanovich had envisioned for them. I highly recommend all Janet Evanovich's book (audio or not) for some fun, light reading, but if you go audio select the ones that include Lorelei King. You will find yourself laughing out loud just envisioning the scenarios as they happen.

4.0 out of 5 stars Just to have a good time Jun 18 2004
By Jorge Frid
Format:Mass Market Paperback
One of the best things of reading is to have a good time, enjoy the reading and laugh now and then, so that's the description of this book.
The main story is nonsense, the lost package and the way they lost it and the way they found it is foolish, but you will laugh meanwhile, all the stories of grandmother Manzur are indeed hilarious and I think that many of them think alike but they don't say anything.
The investigation, policemen and the lovers of Stephanie is worthless, but you will laugh a lot while reading this.

5.0 out of 5 stars As always, bizarre and hilarious May 23 2004
By Book_Learning
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Simply put, no one looking for a truly entertaining, engaging (albeit light) read should pass up this series. Each installment is solid and immensely satisfying; by the time you've read even one of these novels, you will feel that you know Stephanie Plum personally; you will think of her as a friend and ally. Her antics and adventures are endlessly amusing, and the end of each book will only leave you wanting more. Don't miss this series!
