Another wonderful story in the series of The No. 1 Detective Agency. I do have to say that less mysteries were solved, and there was more to be done regarding ongoing character development and the answering of philosophical and day-by-day drama questions (I.E. how to get out of an uncomfortable arrangement and still not lose face?), but I think they are still important. #recentlyread #nospoilers #ladydetective

Thanks @Cinfhen @4thhouseontheleft and @BarbaraTheBibliophage for the reminder on #Booked2019

The beginning of the year has been such a mess for me that l ended up reading only two books
1. The Vanishing of dr Winter by L.B. Hathaway for #LadyDetective
2. The Golden Grave by David Lawlor for #IrishAuthor (l'm still reading this but hope to finish tonight).

I don't have many slotted for Spring, so l'll try to catch up on the ones l left behind.

Cinfhen No worries!! Every book counts 💕Happy Reading xx 5y

Poignant, educational, quirky and emotional. This book reads like a series of dramas which unfold and are expertly, quietly, and efficiently handled by the fabulous main character. I am so glad that I found this series, and am looking forward to reading more. #justfinished #recentlyread #mysterylover #nospoilers #ladydetective #recommendsday ❤️

Picked this up at the library due to a recommendation. I am going through some stressful transition time at work. Trying to learn how to take breaks and let a book allow me to get away, just for a few minutes. Quirky, educational, and poignant so far. #currentlyreading #ladydetective

Soubhiville I love this series! 5y

This was simply delightful!
📚witty banter to the max
📚Victorian murder mystery
📚art colony + Hellfire Club + opium dens
📚will they or won't they??
📚I don't even care, I love them just as they are!

Who are they? The grouchiest, most eccentric and outlandish pair of natural-scientist-amateur-investigators in London. Do look them up!
