This was a thoroughly delightful little read. A most fascinating woman, Mma Ramotswe attracts a most fascinating array of cases--some mysteries are cozy, some not so much. If one doesn't catch your interest, the next one will. I personally found it a great way to spend an evening, among some unusually interesting people, in a charming place in Africa.

Sweet Little Book
This is a series of linked stores rather than one grand mystery solved with a drawing room reveal.

The novel is enjoyable to read, but gave me an earworm. Toto's Africa. I can see why, but I haven't thought of that song in years. ...more
