I recently finished reading a book by Shirley MacLaine, called, What If . . . : A Lifetime of Questions, Speculations, Reasonable Guesses, and a Few Things I Know for Sure. I found this to be a delightful read. Fairly light, compared to lots of what I read. But Ms MacLaine asks a lot of the same questions I live with. And speculates on a lot of the same things I do.

Shirley MacLaine muses on a broad spectrum of topics. From her career in Hollywood to celebrities she has known, politics to the mundanities of life, from religion to spirituality, she asks “what if . . .” She is non-judgmental, light-hearted, irreverent at times, thought-provoking.

I quite enjoyed this book, and would recommend it to anyone wanting a lighter look at what this world and life are all about.
