Do You like book Miss Julia Hits The Road (2004)?
How hard can you laugh when reading a book? If it's the Miss Julia series the answer is hard enough to cry and get a headache.Miss Julia needs to raise money to save Miss Lillian's neighborhood from being bulldozed. A very large donation has been offered if she rides in a poker run. To say that the whole situation was comical is an understatement. A quote from Miss Julia Takes A Ride:"Hazel Marie finished by tucking the sides of my coat under each leg, where I hoped it would stay, else everybody was going to get glimpse of Christmas from the new opening she'd cut in her prized leather pants."I'm still laughing about this book. On to the next one!

Miss Julia is a straight laced older southern woman. This makes for some hilarious scenarios. I wavered between two stars and three and settled on three only because I got a huge belly laugh out of the middle of the book that left me in tears and giggling from time to time for about an hour later - any book that can make me laugh like that does not deserve two stars. Squeaky Clean? - they take the Lord's name in vain every page it would seem and there are a couple cuss words. Also, there is a running gag about what some water from a spring does to the male anatomy that Miss Julia herself would find highly inappropriate.

Miss Julia 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. Fourth in the Miss Julia series.
