Our view
“Lean Mean Thirteen” shows the Stephanie Plum formula still working at book thirteen, with its usual crowd of eccentrics. This time Stephanie’s ex-husband has to be found, and Janet Evanovich lets readers learn a little more about Ranger along the way. Some readers find the comedy a notch weaker here, though the pages still turn easily.
