“This isn't another case. This is family.” This. This is 100% exactly how I feel about this book and this series. It's family.
Janet Evanovich takes on another wild adventure with the family in this latest Stephanie Plum novel, Twisted Twenty-Six. This time it isn't just about her crazy cases, although there's no shortage of that either, this time – it's personal. Grandma Mazur is being targeted by… Well, everyone. There are quite a few shady characters out there wishing this sassy Grandma harm over something she has zero knowledge of. Let's see, there's the mob, the sisters of her late husband of 45 minutes, said late husband's ex-wife and daughter. The list goes on, and it's up to Stephanie to figure it out before it's too late!
I absolutely and without a doubt loved reading Twisted Twenty-Six! The dialogue and flawless transition from one moment to the next were on point. The imagery and descriptions of scenes, characters, and feelings were like no other. Once you get sucked into the world of Stephanie Plum, each subsequent novel is like visiting with an old friend, with family. I wouldn't expect anything less from Janet Evanovich. Having read every one of the Stephanie Plum novels and the Lizzy & Diesel novels, I can say this – Twisted Twenty-Six isn't one to be missed! It's a must-read! I was laughing out loud more times than I can count! By the end, I was tearing up at how much I enjoyed this book and wished I could share it with my Grandma.
I 100% rated this five-stars and would highly recommend to everyone, especially those who are already familiar with the Stephanie Plum series. Twisted Twenty-Six is the perfect next installment to the previous twenty-five and the between-the-numbers holiday novellas.
