  • I am Hooked!

    I was looking for a short read for a trip I was going on, not my usual Stephen King 2,000 pages written in a number 8 font which takes a while to read......I had heard about the series but never got around to reading...I was hooked after the first book! It is a good read which has you wanting more! Just the right amount of characters in the series and not complicated at all...I have enjoyed the series and I am branching out to other books written by Alexander McCall Smith...

  • They’re ok but not for me

    Difficult read. Author should put glossary and how to pronounce words in back of book.

  • Love this series!

    If you loved the series on HBO, you will definitely want to experience the books that inspired it. Funny, sometimes sad and always engaging.
