5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent fun for teens and adults, December 19, 2005

This review is from: Gilda Joyce, Psychic Investigator (Hardcover)

As a mother and former youth librarian, I recommend this book for both adults and teens. It's fun, quirky, and is full of mystery and adventure. The writing is engaging and enthusiastic - you can almost imagine Gilda Joyce bounding into your living room and impressing you with her energy and imagination, not to mention her very stylish clothes! As a librarian, I especially recommend this book for dealing with some very difficult issues - suicide, the death of a parent, divorce and depression - that often perplex young adults. Gilda's enthusiasm for life (and psychic sleuthing!) may help teen readers to put these and other difficult situations into perspective, making them less overwhelming. Above all, Gilda's adventures are great fun and offer young and old readers alike a chance to escape their everyday lives!

5.0 out of 5 stars Move over, Harry Potter!, September 5, 2005

This review is from: Gilda Joyce, Psychic Investigator (Hardcover)

Move over, Harry Potter! Jennifer Allison's new teen-age sleuth Gilda Joyce has real-life adventures as Psychic Investigator that rival those of Harry. Courageous, daring, presumptuous, outrageous, undaunted, she enters a locked tower, entices ghosts, outwits unsmpathetic adults, and reforms the mal-adjusted. With wig disguises and ouija board, she flirts with the occult. Though this novel by Jennifer Allison is a "can't put it down" mystery story for teen agers, adults will enjoy it as well (I am 83).

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Book, August 28, 2005

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Gilda Joyce, Psychic Investigator (Hardcover)

Sure I am only 12 but I loved this book. There were some parts that were too scary for me so I had to read on even though my Dad said it was time for bed. I think that the author over-used some bad words. I just skipped over them and tried to forget but I still give this book a 5.
