Be Charmed by These Bewitching Books from 2025
A Goodreads user asked this question about Look Alive Twenty-Five (Stephanie Plum, #25):
Is this the last one? Stephanie is 54 years old now, isn't it time to pull the trigger and end the series? (In the first book she's 30; it's now been 24 years since One for the Money came out).
Gregory Drake I understand where you are coming from, as it took me a little while to understand just what was happening with the time line. Same thing happened to …moreI understand where you are coming from, as it took me a little while to understand just what was happening with the time line. Same thing happened to me with reading Rex Stout's novels about Nero Wolfe and Archie Goodwin. He started writing them in the 1930's until his death in 1975, I think it was. Then Robert Goldsborough (hope that is correct spelling) continued the series. Suddenly Archie was no longer using his typewriter, but was trying to work with word processor program on the office's desktop computer. I was like... wait a minute... what's with the time line????? These guys haven't really gotten much older since the 30's, but technology has progressed, etc, etc.

Some as with Wolfe's and Archie's & Fritz' world, I've come to accept that Stephanie's & Lula's & Grandma Mazur's world has a different time line than the real world. So many, many years have not actually transpired for them all. I still both of these series and both have plenty of humor in them to bring laughter to my soul in this somewhat cruel world of ours. I wouldn't trade either series for anything.....(less)
