Mrs. Pollifax, Innocent Tourist Audiobook

" I distinctly recall reading this as my DEAR (Drop everything and read) book in Grade 6, and not being able to explain the plot properly in my reading journal because we didn't have much time to write that day. "

" I like the Mrs. Pollifax series, she is an older widow (60's) that works for the CIA on secret missions. She reminds me a bit of Angela Lansbury in Murder she wrote, but she knows karate, gets put into prison camps and meets lots of great characters. There is never anything (language, sex) to be embarrassed by, they are a great listen in the car as well, the kids enjoy them too. "

" Having been to the Middle East, I found it very interesting to reflect on my very "tame" experiences of being an American tourist/student. "

" As one of Dorothy Gilman's Mrs. Pollifax series, this book doesn't disappoint. One of the few mysteries that my husband and I both read. It has enough mystery for me and enough action for him. "

" I enjoyed this book but had a serious problem with a woman who has worked with the CIA 12 times before (guessing because this is the 13th book about her and I haven't read any others) wasn't suspicious when a stranger put something in her carry-on bag while she was in the airplane bathroom. I mean really! "

" Mrs Pollifax is such a delightful character. this is a fun read "

" I have listened to several of the Mrs. Pollifax books on audio. They are fun to listen to, especially because of the excellent narrator, Barbara Rosenblat. A summer-read type of book. "

" Another reliable installment in the series: this time Mrs. Pollifax reunites with John Farrell for an unofficial assignment, which, of course, turns out to be more important and dangerous than any of them anticipated. Still good fun. "

" The Mrs. Pollifax books are very fun light reads, but they're even more fun to listen to. Hearing it read so well really adds a lot to enjoying the story. "

" I liked this book very much. John Sebastian Farrell is in it once again and the setting is Jordan. Awesome book. "

" Mrs. Pollifax, Innocent Tourist (Mrs. Pollifax Mysteries) by Dorothy Gilman (1997) "

" Even when she is just doing a favor for a friend, Mrs Pollifax gets wrapped up in some CIA issue - and of course resolves it with reasonable efficiency, all while sightseeing. "

" I don't enjoy ol' Mrs. Pollifax as much as I used to. "

" I guess this story is proof you don't ever really retire from the CIA, because Farrell is supposed to be an ex-agent and here he is, travelling in Jordan with Mrs. Pollifax, smuggling things out and fighting terrorism. "

" Good wholesome series about a senior citizen who decides to work for the CIA. "

" Not the best in the series, but still entertaining "

" This is a pretty standard Mrs. Pollifax book. In the end, though, you get some of the unique characters and thoughtful character developement that makes Dorothy Gilman's series great. "

" The Mrs. Polifax series is a nice light read when you need something like that. I go back to them time and again - I just can't read too many straight in a row. Good little mysteries involving the CIA/FBI. "

" MUCH better than the last one.up to old standard again "

" #13 Mrs. Pollifax travels to Jordan to retrieve a manuscript smuggled out of Iraq... "

" This is another good Mrs. Pollifax book. Since it features John Sebastian Farrell, it is one of her better books. Farrell was always my favourite character. "

" Mrs. Pollifax is a new character for me. I enjoyed this read and will look for other Mrs. Pollifax tales. "

" I found this a bit boring compared to her other novels. "

" I'm surprised how quickly I finished the 6 CDs just driving around doing errands. The Mrs. Pollifax books are a pleasant diversion, perfect for passing time in the car. "
