hasn't grown. She still, 18 books in, can't manage anything on her own and can't decide between the two men in her life. I don't see what either of them see in her. Evanovich might be able to breathe some life back into the series if she makes Grandma Mazur the star and retires Stephanie to something she's more suited to; something that requires very little in the way of brain cells or skills.

I say 18 books in, because I didn't read the 19th, so I don't know that she hasn't had some life-changing revelation. I doubt it.
