PHILLY STAKES

Rating:
Summary: Sasha Provides A Welcome Contrast
Review: Detective MacKenzie is still in Amanda's life but more in the background in this episode. Amanda's wacky friend Sasha Berg provides a welcome contrast to the stolid policeman. PHILLY STAKES is one of the stronger entries in the very entertaining Amanda Pepper series.

Summary: A Wonderful Read !
Review: This is the second book of Gillian Roberts in the Amanda Pepper series. After the first book I was hooked! Amanda is simply so wonderful ... a caring clever school teacher. Her real plus above every other female mystery paragon is her WONDERFUL humour! I was so thrilled to see this turn into series. I enjoyed the the "unmarried_ still" dialogue with her mother... the conflict with her boyfriend and ofcorse the way Amanda solves a mystery. This series is sooo refreshing that I pace the stores for new ones in the series. Don't miss this one but don't deny yourself the earlier one either... as you get into her life you will just adore her views on everything...
