NASCAR drivers, a good luck charm, and a womanizing PI makes this story another entertaining read by Ann B. Ross.

I really like this series.this is second book in series. I thought it was a fun read.

Laugh out loud funny!

Miss Julia is a delight. I enjoy her taking on modern life head-on. Her insights are hilarious!

This book is the second book about an elderly southern lady and how her life has changed in the last two years since her husband's death.

The book is written well. But it REALLY takes imagination to think that someone in this day and age would be as naive as Miss Julia still is in this second book.

After reading the first two books in the series this reader won't read any more since they are predictable, the plots are similar, and it doesn't take too long to figure out the plot, players and outcome when you are not too far into the book. Even though new characters are introduced, this reader will move on.

I love Miss Julia books. She is such an upright southern lady who goes out of her way to be kind to and protect her friends and "family" even if they are her nasty deceased husband's mistress, Hazel Marie, and Hazel's son little Lloyd, for whom Miss Julia develops a grandmotherly fondness. Good escapist women's fiction, not quite as eccentric and unusual as Fannie Flagg's books, but a close second. Not great literature, but better than bodice-rippers which fail to hold my interest because they are all the same and hold no surprises.
