Sinossi
Quando gli amici hanno bisogno, niente e nessuno riescono a fermare Miss Julia. E se l'amica in questione è Lillian, ci si può anche mettere a cavalcioni di una moto con degli improbabili pantaloni in pelle... L'intera area in cui sorge la casa di Lillian, l'adorabile governante, è stata messa in vendita da un proprietario avido, e l'unico modo che Miss Julia vede di salvare la dimora di Lillian è quello di riuscire a comprare lei stessa l'intero appezzamento. Ma come fare, visto che il venditore chiede una cifra esorbitante? Forse - suggerisce Sam, l'amico di sempre e che da un po' appare anche parecchio innamorato - partecipando a una competizione legata a motociclette e poker; e per quanto Miss Julia detesti cordialmente entrambi, le sembra l'unico modo per racimolare il denaro necessario. Salta quindi in sella a un vecchio modello di Harley-Davidson guidato da Sam e si butta nella folle impresa!

Miss Julia cracks me up. These books are not great literary works of fiction. They are wonderfully entertaining and a quick, fun read.

Miss Julia on a motorcycle? No way! But all for a good cause... Miss Julia's long-time housekeeper Lillian has been evicted from her home along with all of her neighbors. The owner of the property wants to bulldoze all the houses and put up a water bottling plant using the spring water on the hill,
A good book for a teenager, who's trying to get started reading. Language is very basic.
Initially, this didn't start out well. I was confused with all the characters. It is after all, number 4 in the series and this was my beginning. It got much better, it was kinda funny and I had to admire Miss Julia for her fortitude, smarts and her love of the downtrodden. She is willing to do the
5 star PLUS!!! A new favorite! Oh my goodness! I feel in love with this book within the first few minutes I started listening to it. A combination of Designing Women, Driving Miss Daisy and Golden Girls all mixed up into one! Even though this was book 4 of this series I was in no way lost within the Leggi tutto
This book held my interest from the start to the end. I can just imagine what Julia is thinking, doing, and causing in her efforts to be a lady. Riding on a motorcycle for a good cause was the icing on the cake. Goes to show you what can happen when people of all kinds rally behind a good deed. Ther Leggi tutto
Delightful as always
Doing research on cozy serieses(?) and this book was recommended. Characters were terrible. Plot was barely there. The only reason not a 1-star rating is because the writing wasn't awful.
