 iBooks picks THEORY as BEST NEW FICTION


"Hilarious & moving! A HIT! Judy Blume, Lena Dunham, and Jennifer Weiner move over! "  - Judith Collins, Blogger, 'Influencer'

 

 

 

Dear Pope Francis,


I just know you will like A THEORY OF EXPANDED LOVE!

First of all, I think you're a really good pope! For instance, washing the feet of the bums.

 We all walk past them on the street, but you actually did something. And it was so practical, because their feet are always dirty.

And you sure cut through the smog when you sent out that encyclical on global warming! Fox news called you one of the most dangerous people on earth. But a lot of people thought Christ was dangerous; that's why they crucified him. Don't worry, I'm not suggesting you're in danger of crucifixion, but I think it takes guts to be subversive.

May I ask you something?

Seriously, could you please read A THEORY OF EXPANDED LOVE? I think you will enjoy it, because I have noticed that you have a sense of humor!

And if you like it, could you write a few words about how my book made you feel?

And could you go to AMAZON.com and post your review online? So others will buy the book?

Because if your review is not on AMAZON, how is anyone going to know how good it is?

Here are a few examples from others, in case you are intimidated by the term 'review'.

Yours in Christ,

Annie Shea, Age 12, St. Andrew's parish, Pasadena, California, 1963
