Yvonne - reviewed on 3/9/2009 + 4 more book reviews

One of the reasons I picked this book up was that the cover had a quote from The Plain Dealer that stated: "One of the best, most charming, honest, hilarious and life-affirming books to appear in years." I don't know if they were talking about a different book or what. There was nothing hilarious in it. The story-line was good for what it was (various cases and background information of the main character), but I would not even come close to calling this book funny. If you're looking for humor, look elsewhere. If you're looking for a glimpse at African life and a woman who can solve mysteries, then this is your book.
