Excellent novel! It was so much better than its predecessor "The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency", and I warmed up more to the characters. I think Ramotswe's fiance is so sweet, and the storyline regarding the orphans was very touching. I love this series because the books are so "cozy" and easy to read, and the Botswana culture really gives me warm fuzzies. :) I can't wait to read the next book in the series!

Tears of the Giraffe is the 2nd in the Ladies Detective Agency books by Alexander McCall Smith. I enjoyed the continued story of Precious Ramotswe and her detective work in a small town in Botswana. The mixture of events in Percious' personal and professional life, make this book and the series enjoyable to read. I would recommend this fast reading book and look forward to the next in the series.

**** The Ladies' Detective Agency stories are very enjoyable and gave me a look into witty and amusing characters and introduced me to some African culture.
