Finished DRUMS OF AUTUMN

 


Not much I can say when finishing the fourth book in an at least 8 book series without spoilers.  If you are watching the TV series, I think I am roughly at the end of the 4th season.  There is lots more in the book than on TV (I know...duh) with a lot more preparation and explanation for our characters' actions during season 5 that we did not get watching.  I am obviously a big fan and enjoy every minute of the books even though I am still reading after seeing the show (not my favorite way of doing it.)  Knowing what is about to happen is more terrifying than reading it cold, I think...

I have now started To The Land of Long Lost Friends, the 20th book in the #1 Ladie's Detective Agency series by Alexander McCall Smith.  I like the relaxation of following up an exciting book with a relaxing one and this fits the description.  It has begun with Mma Ramotswe seeing a long lost friend who she had thought was dead (late.)  A joy to discover that was a newspaper misprint and to discuss it with Mma Makutsi the next day.
