Knowing that I like to read mysteries, my sign language teacher told me this book is light reading and entertaining. I think it’s a little too light, and I did not find it very entertaining.

Mrs. Pollifax Unveiled by Dorothy Gilman is one in a series of Mrs. Pollifax novels. This is the first one I’ve read, and it is my last. There were no surprises, no intrigue. The writing lacks style. It’s straightforward and plain, the way I would write…and no publisher is knocking at my door. There are over 10 Mrs. Pollifax books, so apparently she has fans. But I’m not one of them.

I miss Agatha Christie.
