Our town has a used bookstore where they are very friendly, and they will often hand you books to borrow that they think you might enjoy. I normally read Urban Fantasy, but I find the Mrs. Pollifax mysteries enjoyable, filled with humor, and rather like chocolates. I read one mystery and I can't help wanting to read another.
I started reading Dorothy Gilman's book due to a recommendation from a PBS member and have not regretted it. Her books are exceptional, adventureous, a lot of fun to read. The reader is amazed on how Mrs. Pollifax gets into so many situations but is such a smart cookie, she get out of them somehow and that is the fun in reading her books. In this Safari adventure, Emily is kidnapped from the camp, and does not know why...but she finds out and plays it cool to find a way out....as she usually does. I highly recommned!
One of her very best adventures.
Mrs. Pollifax is charming, witty and keeps you interested. I have read all of her books now and am reading them over. I recommend!
When a character in a mystery is compared to Agatha Christie's Miss Marple, it has to be good!
