Bertie's parts are still my favourite, and it was nice to see things get better for him. I also liked seeing Bruce fuck up, although of course he was a smug ass by the end still. Oh well, you can't get everything. I didn't really like Matthey in this though: I found him sympathetic in the first book, but this hatred of Janis in this one was a bit too much. And Pat suddenly wanting him when he was rich? Plz... You could tell McCall Smith didn't plan on writing more in this series (he even says it in the foreword), so it'll be interesting to see what happens in book three, but I'm sure he'll make it work. I've seen other series going on for longer than expected with good results, I've no reason to doubt that this will. I enjoy this series, but this one started dragging a bit in some parts, especially during the Ramsey Dunbarton Story. Either I missed the point or it was really boring. Since his wife kept falling asleep while he was reading part of it to her, I suspect it's not just me. There was a guest appearance in this book - Ian Rankin, author of the Inspector Rebus series. This was a bit of a surprise; I've read the first few books of that series. There was some really good humor, but a lot of boring stuff too. It's nice for a change, but I don't think I'll keep reading right away. It seems to have reached a point where things are changing a lot, and a lot of characters are planning to go away, so it may be a good stopping point. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
