The Miracle at Speedy Motors, Alexander McCall Smith


I just finished this book last night. It took me a bit longer to get into this book compared to the other books in the series. (Miracle at Speedy Motors is part of the No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency books.) The first book in the series is exceptional, and if you haven't read it - it is a must read! But, back to the book at hand ... The writing is very poignant. There was a lot of thought put into the words used in the book. The underlying context is very thought provoking. (I have to admit - I did use a quote from the book when I spoke in church a few weeks ago ...) The book concluded differently than I could have imagined and it was a light easy read. His books are always delightful - and I am still surprised that it is a man who writes these books and not a woman - He has wonderful insight into the male/female mind.
