Excellent Summer reading! It is well written and keeps you interested until the very end. I do not cook but I do remember watch Julia Child's program on TV - I could hear her distinctive voice when I read the passages attributed to her. I applaud Julie's strength and stamina (and her husband's patience)in taking on such a difficult challenge under that the best conditions. I highly recommend this book, it is funny, insightful and just a really good read.

The second book in the Miss Julia series is a delightful and funny as the first. Miss Julia is a wonderful character, smart and extremely naive at the same time. It is just a thoroughly enjoyable read, perfect for these hot summer days. Long may Miss Julia live, long may Ms Ann B. Ross write!
