Book Review of The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency (No.1 Ladies Detective Agency, Bk 1)

The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency (No.1 Ladies Detective Agency, Bk 1)
reviewed on + 80 more book reviews


Too many bestsellers are not what I consider "smart fiction" and so I avoid them. I've never read a novel by Stephen King, and only one each by John Grisham and Danielle Steel. I also avoid books my mother recommends, unless they are books that appealed to me on their own. So I am thankful that I "had" to read this for a book discussion group, because now I am hooked on Precious Ramotswe and her romances and adventures. First in a series; sequels include Tears of the Giraffe, Morality for Beautiful Girls, The Kalahari Typing School for Men, The Full Cupboard of Life, and In the Company of Cheerful Ladies.
