I loved this book as a continuation from The No 1 Ladies Detective Agency. It feels like a slice of life type of read. Very cosy, relaxing and goes perfectly with a cup of tea and a few biscuits. I feel like I am learning so much about Africa and Botswanna that I never would have learnt otherwise, and unlike other forms of learning, I am able to retain some of these new facts in my brain.
