Reseñas de la Crítica

"The Miss Julia series is an audiophile's dream; the novels seem to have been created just for audio." (The Denver Post)

Great book!

I really enjoyed this book and find myself thinking in the southern twang that makes up this book. It took a bit for me to get used to and excited about the older character with such high morals but very quickly I found myself enjoying it. I will say that I think younger "readers" may find it a bit too stuffy. Again, I really enjoyed it and plan on getting the whole series.

Married at last!!!!

This is one of my favorites in the series. Miss Julia and her "extended family" have become a part of my life....seriously!! Love you Ann Ross. You absolutely may not retire....ever!!

Miss Julia

Maybe I was just in the right frame of mind, but I thought the story was just adorable. I’ll listen to it again.

Loved every minute of this series!

What did you love best about Miss Julia's School of Beauty?

A nice easy listen, enjoyable and made me laugh. Loved every one and was sorry when I got the the last book.

Enjoyed the pageant but…

Thought the whole bit about losing Sam was silly and repetitious. Least fave of the series.

Title was misleading

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

I kept listening hoping for the story to really get going. There were some really great characters, but the heroine, Miss Julia seemed to be a simpering fool making decisions out of pride rather than from being clever or crafty. I perceived her to be smart and clever from the description of the book. It could have been truly funny with the cast of characters created by Miss Ross. The narrator did a wonderful job and she was the reason I kept listening, hoping it would get to its point.

Love This Series!!!

This book was as enjoyable & entertaining as the earlier books in the series! I love Miss Julia & all her friends!

Miss Julia's School of Beauty

Loved this installment of the Miss Julia books. ..very funny, enjoyable read....narrator Cynthia Darlow is perfect.

Fun Story

As always, Miss Julia takes us for a fun tride twisting this way and that with all the great regular characters and quirkie plots. I can always count on Julia Springer and gang to keep me interested and smiling.

Not my favorite

As always the narration was great. Cynthia Darlow is the perfect voice for all the characters.

Miss Julia is wearing a little thin. Too ridiculous about losing Sam. The storyline irritated the hell out of me
