3/4⭐️ (Very Good) Read for January #bookspin number 17.
I still love the characters and the setting. The writing is not full of itself and fussy. I was a little disappointed that some storylines from the third book seemed to have been dropped. Hopefully they will get picked up later. Mma Ramotswe‘s cases weren‘t as interesting, but I appreciated getting to know more about Mma Makutsi.

With only one mystery to solve, most of this book 5 in the series is about Mma Ramotswe‘s feelings about her fiance Mr JLB Matekoni‘s failing to set a wedding date and his inability to stand up for himself. He faces the biggest fear of his life when he fails to say no when the orphan farm manager Mma Potokwane tells him he must jump from a plane with a parachute for a fundraiser. And it makes headline news in the Gabarone newspaper! ⬇️

This 4th book in the series really focuses on Mma Makutsi, the assistant lady detective. She flexes her entrepreneurial muscles and her love life (or lack thereof) gets examined. Life continues on for Mma Ramotswe and her fiance Mr JLB Matekoni as he returns to work from his illness and they deal with a misbehaving Puso. Mma Ramotswe faces her first competitor in the detective business and she helps a businessman right past wrongs. ⬇️

Another gentle read with Mma Ramotswe and company. Mr. JLB Matekoni tries his hand at taking on a case with surprising results. Miss Makutsi considers changing jobs. Mr. JLB Matekoni‘s feckless apprentice, Charlie, also strikes out on his own as a taxi driver. Mma Ramotswe solves three mysterious deaths at a hospital in her hometown of Mochudi. Pure comfort!

My first completed #ChristmasCrimeChallenge book.

#WhereAreYouMonday

This week finds me back in Botswana 🇧🇼 with Mma Ramotswe. I‘m only in the first chapter, so I don‘t know where the story will go, but I know I‘m in capable hands.

Also reading this for #ChristmasCrimeChallenge
