Publisher Description
Miss Julia, a recently bereaved and newly wealthy widow, is only slightly bemused when one Hazel Marie Puckett appears at her door with a youngster in tow and unceremoniously announces that the child is the bastard son of Miss Julia's late husband. Suddenly, this longtime church member and pillar of her small Southern community finds herself in the center of an unseemly scandal--and the guardian of a wan nine-year-old whose mere presence turns her life upside down.
With razor-sharp wit and perfect "Steel Magnolia" poise, Miss Julia speaks her mind indeed--about a robbery, a kidnapping, and the other disgraceful events precipitated by her husband's death. Fast-paced and charming, with a sure sense of comic drama, a cast of crazy characters, and a strong Southern cadence, Miss Julia Speaks Her Mind will delight listeners from start to end.
Customer Reviews
Good book to start
Good book to start the series into a book of characters that soon come to feel like family.
Miss Julia Speaks Cleat as a Bell
An enjoyable read during a scary pandemic. Takes the mind elsewhere. A mind break. Narrator was charming. Listened at night and had to hide be careful my giggles didn’t wake my DH up. Brings up good issues of a woman’s life over time. One thing though about the editing is that there are too long silent gaps between chapters and
a interruptive loud clipped announcement of the chapter up to like chapter 30. Totally unnecessary!
