Loved it! I listened to the audio and then I bought the paperback at a book sale last year. Plan on rereading! I've lost all hope in being excited for book-to-movies since RPO. :(

Later she wrote “ that’s what I love about reading one tiny thing will interest you in a book, and that tiny thing will lead you on to another book, and another there will lead you on to a third book. It’s geometrically progressive —- all with no end in sight, and for no other reason than sheer enjoyment.”..."

Way to go, Joanne! Another one bites the dust! Have you read the previous Pollifax books? I loved the first one. It was also a movie in 1970 starring a senior Rosiland Russel.

OK, I have it qued up now, but you have to promise me you will try to find the Rosiland Russell version...

Have you been watching the Crown! We love it. Have you watched Victoria? It is, I believe, based on the book Victoria by Daisy Goodwin. THAT was also very good.
Mod
Sounds fun!
