“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.”

Two more books, books 23 & 24 of the series, from the Houston bookstore Murder by the Book. I now only need three books to complete the series
“As they left the shop, Mma Ramotswe made amends and told Mma Makutsi that she really thought the blue shoes very beautiful. There was no point in disapproving of a purchase once the deed had been done.”
Mma Makutsi‘s weakness was colorful unusual shoes - it was her trademark 👠

so-so2.5/5 ⭐️
Just a so so for me. There seem to be fewer cases and lots of hints get dropped each book, but then they never get picked up again. I‘m going to take a little break from this series for a bit.
pick3/4⭐️ (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.
pickWith 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! ⬇️
On to this audiobook

pickThis 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. ⬇️
