I have just finished this book. It was a very good book. It just points out that one must never judge people by how they look sometimes on more then how they act.
And just over all that if you show kindness then kindness comes in many shapes.

Another great book that kept me company on my commute. The woman who reads this series really brings the characters to life. :)
It was a real treat to read this book whilst visiting Botswana!
These books are like a box of candy to me! I look forward to every new addition to the series, wait until it finally shows up on my doorstep, unwrap the box it comes in, admire the artwork on the cover, and then plunge in, not stopping until every morsel is gone (but the best part is these have 0 calories). Thank you, Alexander McCall Smith for every delightful book in this series. Please keep them coming!
Yet another extremely enjoyable installment in the series. These books are so wonderful, I always feel a sense of loss whenever I'm on the last page. Then I thumb through the last pages a bit looking for more, just in case I missed something.
