A nice story, although a little sad. Not as well written as some other authors I've read, but a pleasant read overall.

Overall good book. Had some twists that I was not expecting. Good character building, fast paced, easy read that kept you wanting to know what was going to happen. Also left a little to be desired with the ending.

Imagine, if you will, that your life completely changes because of an accident… You take responsibility for your alcohol and drug usage and just when you think you will be free, a pandemic happens. This was a powerful and moving book. (I shed some tears.)

Book 2 of Millicent Quibb did not disappoint! What a fun and adventurous tale once again! This book sets us up perfectly for book 3! I cannot wait!

Wonderful complex relationships between friends that builds suspense throughout the book.

Interesting take on a fantasy story involving “fairies” and “humans”. Engaging story as each chapter is narrated by each of the main characters. You really get to know each character and their perspective of Tara’s explanation of disappearing for 20 yrs. The author has you guessing and second guessing if the story is true or imagined.

Ah, Percy and Sam…you were lovable from the start. This is the story of growing up and making mistakes and finding your way with each other, of choosing to love each other well in spite of mess ups. Loved this book.

Another delightful No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency story. I enjoy the quirkiness of McCall Smith's take on Botswana society. I have read at least 7 of these books!

Did not like it at all!!!

I had to see whether this book lived up to the hype and chose it as my beach read. I was sorely disappointed with the lack of depth with the characters. So many stereo-types! There just wasn't enough satire here for me to make all the extremely unlikable characters more interesting. The ending made no sense at all, and it felt like the author chose the topic of "trad wives" because of the zeitgeist of the time, but failed to deliver a novel that really had anything to say. So disappointing!
