Gilda Joyce, Psychic Investigator by Jennifer Allison

Guest Blogger Day

The book I’m reviewing is called Gilda Joyce, Psychic Investigator. Gilda is a 13-year old with a case on her hands. One day, she visits her long lost cousin from San Francisco because of a “psychic vibe.” Juliet, her cousin, claims that she saw the ghost of her aunt, Melanie, when she was going to commit suicide. Now Gilda and Juliet are wondering why Juliet’s aunt commits suicide. I like this book because it is written very well, it’s funny, and it is thick.

It’s written very, very well. It is rich in details and it makes me want to read more. It is so well written that I take a flashlight and read it in the night. I just hope my parents don’t realize this.

The book is funny also. I don’t really know how to explain the “funniness” so you can read it and find out yourself.

This is a funny thing to mention. The book is pretty thick; the book has over 300 pages! I don’t know about you, but I like really thick books. It seems that no good book is long enough.

I highly recommend it to 8 and up, because it has a few dirty words in it. If you like books that are good (who doesn’t?), funny, and thick, pick up Gilda Joyce, Psychic Investigator. Be sure to pick up the sequel, Gilda Joyce and the Ladies of the Lake.
