It‘s a stressful week with the kids starting school and everyone adjusting to a new, earlier schedule, so I‘m comfort reading. The No. 1 Ladies‘ Detective Agency series is very calming. I‘m up to book 7.
pickI read the first in this series years ago, and though I enjoyed it, for some reason I never got around to continuing the series. I stumbled across this second in the series when looking for a book for the #SomeplaceHot #FictionalTraveler prompt, and I‘m glad I did. This is delightful, gentle storytelling.

pickA generous donor to the orphan farm is putting unacceptable conditions on his donations. Mma Ramotswe and Mma Makutsi investigate his reasons. One of the Speedy Motors apprentices is arrested for handling stolen goods. And the ladies get the chance to meet a very famous person.
I did worry just how disappointed Mma Ramotswe and Mma Makutsi were going to be by their special guest.
pickMma Ramotswe takes on the case of a farmer whose cattle are being mutilated, and Mma Makutsi prepares for her wedding to Phuti Radiphuti.
I always enjoy visiting Botswana in the company of the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency.

Another gentle and entertaining outing with Mma Ramotswe and co. An adopted woman asks the No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency to find her biological family and someone is sending poison pen letters to the agency. Both mysteries are solved with compassion and kindness. ❤️
“And the memory made her humble; for we should not forget what it is to be young and to have ideas and attitudes that may later seem so fanciful.”
