Tonight‘s book, paired with a lovely raspberry ginger wheat ale that has neither a name nor a head.

I plucked MRS POLLIFAX ON THE CHINA STATION from a Little Free Library because every year I try to read a book from each year I‘ve been alive and I‘m still missing 1983. It seems like it‘s a cozy spy thriller. I‘m also braced for lots of racism, since it‘s from 1983, but I hope it‘ll surprise me.

TieDyeDude 😃 We used to have that glass! The beer sounds tasty. Hope the book is palatable. 3mo
xicanti @TieDyeDude it‘s a pretty fun read so far. Not perfect, but much more balanced than I feared it‘d be! 3mo

Just as good as the first book, though Mrs. Pollifax is slightly more prepared this time. I've also noticed she seems to have a Bond-esque way of picking up random men throughout her travels. Lol
Lots of action. Lots of spy-related shenanigans. This would make a great movie. Looking forward to the next one. Recommend.

Recommended to me by a friend. This was a delightful story! Basically a spy novel, except instead of James Bond it's a 60-something widow who is bored of Garden Club and volunteering at the hospital. It has most of the same elements as a James Bond novel, but is more upbeat/cheerful. Really fun and quick to read. Good for anyone who likes the action/spy/mystery genres. One of my favorite books so far this year. Definitely Recommend.

Blueberry ❤️ Mrs. Pollifax 2y
