 Sylvian toinen näytös on ihanan kepeä ja hauska lukukokemus, joka nappaa heti otteeseensa. Sylvian seikkailuja oli aivan ihana lukea. Monet hauskat sivuhahmot toivat tarinaan ihanasti vaihtelua, naurua ja silmien pyöräytyksiä. 

Tapahtumat eivät koskaan menneet aivan 100% siihen suuntaan kuin voisi luulla, sillä kukaan hahmoista ei ole täydellinen. Oli aivan ihanaa lukea henkilöstä, joka on yli 60-vuotias ilman että häntä kohdellaan kuin vanhusta. Tämä on aivan liian usein hahmojen kohtalo.

Tätä olisi ollut aivan ihana lukea lomalla rannalla tai kaupungissa cosmopolitan kädessä. Onneksi omalla kotisohvalla tarina toimii myös!

I really loved this book. It reminded me a bit of Mrs. Plansky’s Revenge
