I can't read on my EV-1150 anymore because of my eyesight, but can read it in PDF on my big monitor, blown up 200%.
The first couple Evanovich novels were good, but the problem is that her "heroine" is an incompetent dipshit who never seems to learn anything, which gets annoying after several books (I think she's up to 12 or 13 now). Also, around Book 5, I think it is, there is a major love triangle sub plot that plods on and on and on without resolution. Good start, but a friend sent me the last one to read and it's an absolutely "by the numbers" copy of the previous books, and an excellent example of why series books need to be finite.


...and it's funny you mention bad eyesight, because light pink text on a white background is just about unreadable to me.
