Book Reviews of Miss Julia Hits the Road (Southern Comedy of Manners)

Book Review: Motorcycle Church Lady
Summary: 5 Stars


This is the fourth book in the Miss Julia series, and my favorite thus far. Miss Julia is opinionated, and being an old-fashioned church goer and widow lady, she knows what's right and does it. She goes right ahead and tells others what they need to do, which they often don't appreciate. Her motives are pure; in this book she goes on a huge all out campaign to save the house of her housekeeper and dear friend, Lillian, while fearing that her beau, Sam, is losing his mind. Miss Julia needs to convince as many over age fifty, "ladies of quality" to take the shocking step of riding on motorcycles in a poker run fund raiser, to save the homes of Lillian and her neighbors. It's a wild and fun ride. If you are new to the series you can just jump right in and start with this title, or with the first book, Miss Julia Speaks Her Mind.

Summary of Miss Julia Hits the Road (Southern Comedy of Manners)

Miss Julia?that Southern spitfire of a certain age who is never less than charming, even when she?s at her most opinionated?has been praised by Fannie Flagg as ?one of the most delightful characters to come along in years.? In Miss Julia Hits the Road, she is becoming increasingly concerned about her gentleman friend, Sam, who has suddenly started wearing cowboy boots, sending her flowers, and writing bad poetry. And when he shows up on a Harley-Davidson Road King and asks her to hop on, she?s convinced he?s lost his mind. Meanwhile, her invaluable housekeeper, Lillian, has been evicted from her home by her greedy landlord. Deciding that Lillian?s need is greater than her own fear (not to mention loss of dignity), Miss Julia takes Sam up on his offer and sets off on a motorcycle Poker Run to raise some fast cash. She?s ready to risk life and limb in Sam?s sidecar to save Lillian?s home from the bulldozer, but will Miss Julia?s scheme work?
