"Oh, I adore this series. And I especially adore the titles! This title spoke to me. I feel such a kinship with those living in Edinburgh, Scotland.

— The, 12/19/2013" the main reason I keep reading this series is because my mother does, but nothing very much ever happens in it. it's not terribly unpleasant to peruse in a doctor's office, and I'll likely read the next one too, and everything else alexander mccall smith writes. I'm a sucker for serials... "
