No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, by Alexander McCall Smith

What a lovely book! It follows Precious (Mma) Ramotswe as she opens the one and only detective agency in Botswana. Mma Ramotswe is a wise and clever woman who loves Africa and is very good at her job as a detective. I loved reading about her different clients, how she "cracked" the cases, the scenery of Africa, her family and past....it was all so good. Put this book on your to-read list, you won't be sorry!

Becky....how do you find time to read? I need to figure out how to do books on tape.

I'm still finishing up year of wonders and kite runner. I lost both books in my clutter for a while. I love this blog because although i am behind I can always look on here and find a good book recommendation. I read "Left to Tell" and it was so good and so sad.
