The Minor Adjustment Beauty Salon by Alexander McCall Smith. ****

Number 14, and still such a pleasure to read. Mma Makutsi has a baby and takes a leave from her post. Mma Ramwotse solves two mysteries: who has posted defamatory posters in front of the new beauty salon, and who is the boy on the farm out in the country who is due to inherit the farm?

JLB Matekone goes to a course to learn how to be a modern husband, and Phuti, Mma Makutsi's husband, finds snakes in their home.

Such warmth and wisdom, expressed in such beautiful phrases with gentle insights into human nature.  These  books are pure gold!
