This series has been around for about 40 years, but I only recently discovered it thanks to a friend's recommendation. An elderly lady, bored with life, decides to march herself in to CIA headquarters and volunteer as a spy. Great adventures! FUN reading! Mrs. Pollifax rules!
There were definitley profound moments in this book. I am not sure where to really begin to describe this book.. I loves the premise, but it didn't play out the way that I thought it would. I was disappointed at the end, and yet, I TOTALLY agree with what "Jesus" taught about Ameican politics. I believe that our nation is in grave spiritual danger and that all political sides are at fault. I feel that politicians are mostly in it for themselves and what they can gain--rather than what is best for our country. I think we need to be kinder, and do more to help others. I believe religions who think they have market cornered on spirituality are wrong. I wonder at times if I myself would be willing to accept and follow a Savior who returned in a way that I did not expect... kinda like the Jews... There were parts that were silly and annoying--like the talk show names and persons, and the names of some of the towns. And at times, I even thought the Savior acted dumb--not in the way that I would ahve expected. I was unhappy with the ending. I wanted more, and it made me sad that I didn't get it. I liked the main character and I wish I had gotten more about what his life was like after the election. Overall, I am glad I read this book. It really talked about my political beliefs, but this book was nto as good as Breakfast with Buddha. I wish there had been more!
