I remember I hit a point where they just were not fun anymore. But I am interesting in rereading some of the early ones.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-15192492370993050562022-01-09T05:05:48.270-08:002022-01-09T05:05:48.270-08:00Margot, thanks.

I'm realistic and understand that not every book I read will hit the spot, but I didn't loathe it and there were bits I suppose that sustained me through until the end. The writing wasn't poor or objectionable, just not enough story there to satisfy me. col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-83763274362811506782022-01-09T04:59:19.621-08:002022-01-09T04:59:19.621-08:00Sorry hear that this one didn't really keep yo...Sorry hear that this one didn't really keep your interest, Col. I do like the Mrs. Pollifax series, and I agree that in general, the stories are interesting, with a fresh take on the spy business. But not every book will hit the mark. As you say, perhaps it's best you didn't start your exploration of the series with this one...Margot Kinberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08599589137890528065noreply@blogger.com
