2.0 out of 5 stars
stiff PC prose,
By A Customer
This review is from: Morality for Beautiful Girls (Paperback)
Read the sample pages on Amazon...the author obviously set himself the task of raising consciousness about life in Africa, specifically female life in Botswana. His political purpose may be admirable but the writing is stiff, preachy, and ultimately uninteresting. Not wretched, but a chore to read. How many women refer to a prospective fiance in their most private thoughts as Mr. J. L. B. Jones? 'Nuff said.

Not a page turning mystery, but nice read,
By A Customer
This review is from: Morality for Beautiful Girls: A No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency Novel (3) (Paperback)
This is the second book I have read in this series and still have the impression that these books are very light on mystery. I guess I would have to say this is more true for this book than the first one I read. I have to agree with several of the other reviewers that there seemed to be more lose ends (or losely tied ends) that really didn't leave me satisfied. Beyond that, as a fictional read, the descriptions of the people and country have been consistantly good in both books.
