The Miracle at Speedy Motors - Alexander McCall Smith
by Surfbabe13 - written on 02/02/09 (Very useful, 19 readings)
Rating:
I ve read mostof Alexander McCall Smith s other books featuring Mma Ramotswe and have enjoyed them all. They are easy to read and whilst not a very heavy subject are quite enlightening about how life in Botswana could be. If you haven t read any of the other books in the series then here is a very short synopsis; Precious Ramotswe is a private investigator - in fact the only female private investigator in Botswana. She has an assistant called Mma Makutsi, who had the highest score ever from the Secretarial College. Mma Ramotswe is married to Mr JLB Matekoni, who owns Tlokweng Road Speedy Motors. They have two adopted children one of whom is disabled. Both mma Ramotswe ...

The Full Cupboard of Life - Alexander McCall Smith

samey. The cynic in me is wondering if McCall Smith is going to start churning these books out as they are so popular and obvious money spinners. I hope this is not the case and that he either offers something a bit more in future books, or retires Mma Ramotswe gracefully. The RRP is £6.99. Suitable for those who enjoy or are looking for a gentle read, rather than dedicated fans of detective fiction. The Series in order: The No1 Ladies Detective Agency Tears of the Giraffe Morality for Beautiful Girls The Kalahari Typing School for Men The Full Cupboard of Life In the Company of Cheerful Ladies Blue Shoes and Happiness The Good Husband of Zebra ...

The Full Cupboard of Life - Alexander McCall Smith
by SueMagee - written on 11/12/05 (Very useful, 194 readings)
Rating:
the wealthy owner of a chain of hair-braiding salons, who wants the No1 Detective Agency to investigate not one, but four suitors. This is the fifth book in Alexander McCall Smith’s The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency series. Each time I read one I enjoy it to a certain extent but think that I probably won’t bother with any more. Then I find one at the library and another sleepless night is filled. For me the series is endearing and amusing but not really compelling. After reading one of the books I’ve no great compulsion to find out what happens next to the main characters, mainly because the books are all very similar and a bit formulaic. To some extent, if you’ve ...
