Four to Score Audiobook by Janet Evanovich: A Rollicking Romp with Stephanie Plum, the Bounty Hunter with a Bang
On a blustery evening, as the rain pattered against my windowpane, I nestled into my favorite armchair, a cup of steaming coffee in hand. The dim glow from my reading lamp cast a warm circle of light around me – the perfect ambiance for diving into the world of mystery and mischief. With the press of a button, C.J. Critt’s voice filled the room, and I was whisked away to the streets of Trenton, New Jersey, where Janet Evanovich’s Four to Score Audiobook promised an adventure filled with humor and suspense.
Janet Evanovich has this uncanny ability to blend crime-solving with comedy in such an effortless manner that it leaves listeners like myself both intrigued and chuckling. It’s no small feat to make serious situations appear ludicrously funny without diminishing their gravity. But here I was again, caught up in the exploits of Stephanie Plum – bounty hunter extraordinaire – and her colorful entourage.
In Four to Score, we see Plum hunting down Maxine Nowicki – a waitress accused of stealing her boyfriend’s car – who’s left behind a trail that screams vengeance at every turn. As is customary in Evanovich’s works, Stephanie isn’t alone; she’s joined by an eclectic crew that adds flavor to her quest. There’s Morelli – her on-again-off-again flame who never fails to complicate matters both professionally and personally – and then there’s Grandma Mazur: 73 years young and just as feisty as our leading lady.
What sets this audiobook apart is not just its compelling narrative but also C.J. Critt’s narration which breathes life into each character with distinct clarity and charm. Her timing is impeccable when delivering punchlines that are quintessentially Evanovich – bold and brash yet endearingly sincere.
As Stephanie navigates through her latest caper alongside Lula – a former hooker turned file clerk – and Sally Sweet – a cross-dressing musician – it becomes clear that each member of this motley crew has more than just capturing Maxine on their agenda. Personal aspirations and hidden motives unravel as they chase clues from one chaotic scene to another.
The genius lies in how Evanovich constructs her characters – they’re so vividly human with their flaws laid bare for all to see. They lie when it serves them best only to be cornered by circumstances into revealing their truths eventually – an element so masterfully executed that it resonates deeply within us listeners because it mirrors our own complex natures.
One cannot help but admire how effortlessly Evanovich weaves these elements together: Stephanie’s professional endeavors tinged with personal quandaries; the unlikely alliances formed under bizarre circumstances; the interplay between loyalty and deception among friends and foes alike.

Reflecting upon my time spent immersed in Four to Score, I find myself appreciating not just the storytelling prowess of Janet Evanovich but also acknowledging C.J. Critt’s role in making this experience so memorable. It takes true talent to capture both wit and wisdom within the confines of spoken word audio entertainment, and this combination does not disappoint.
As I reach for my headphones once more – eagerly anticipating where Stephanie Plum will take us next – I can’t help but feel grateful for storytellers like Janet Evanovich who remind us that even amidst life’s uncertainties and dangers, there’s always room for laughter…and perhaps a condom or two for good measure.
Eagerly awaiting our next narrative adventure,
Happy listening,
Stephen
