Query: Deeply disappointed!

I was so excited to read this book after hearing good things and then seeing the author on Oprah. HOWEVER, shortly into the book I noticed a political reference that had no relevance to the particular point the author was making. It was a let down, but I moved on. Several pages later yet another political reference...this time much more critical and again totally lacking importance to the topic at hand. I couldn't help but drop the book to my lap, taking several minutes to decide whether I even wanted to continue reading. This is an excellent writer, she had me salivating at her brilliant style...till she had to infuse her political barbs (which I found insulting!). I don't care what her personal political beliefs are, just wish she would have kept them to herself! I read for PLEASURE...if I want to read about politics, I'll choose a book on that subject!
