“Yet another delightful and funny read of life in Botswana, by Alexander McCall Smith of Edinburgh.”

“This book, the third in the series, is a little bit slower-paced than its two predecessors, but I liked the further development of Mma Makutsi's character and her growing confidence in her abilities. I'm also loving how tart-tongued and courageous Mma Ramotswe can be in stressful situations, like with the officious "government man." As with the other two books in this series, I listened to this one on audiobook with the usual narrator (Lisette Lecat), and now I'm pretty certain that I like them better via audio than I would on the page. The loveliness of Smith's writing comes across better aurally, I think, as if some gifted storyteller was relaying the tale.”
