Mrs. Moses is a small woman with a big heart and enormous courage. The only survivor of a Cossack raid on her village, she takes with her a big cast-iron frying pan, so heavy that she can only sling it over her back. Yet this is no ordinary frying pan, it's The Family Frying Pan, blessed with a Russian soul.

What does Melissa Eccleston and Humphrey Bower bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Indeed, the narration kept the stories moving even when I wondered if I might lose a thread.
Any additional comments?
It was a great system for including stories of the time from differing points of view.

Business is slow at the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, so slow in fact that for the first time in her estimable career Precious Ramotswe has reluctantly agreed to take a holiday. The promise of a week of uninterrupted peace is short-lived, however, when she meets a young boy named Samuel, a troublemaker who is himself in some trouble. Once she learns more about Samuel's sad story, Mma Ramotswe feels compelled to step in and help him find his way out of a bad situation.

What did you love best about The Woman Who Walked In Sunshine?
The characters evolved, and their philosophies morphed.
Any additional comments?
The storytelling was so well done. I didn't need quite so many plots, but it kept me interested nonetheless.

What would have made Commonwealth better?
The characters seemed flat to me

not interesting
Revisado: 02-09-17
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
The writing didn't carry me along, as did his other books.
What could Alexander McCall Smith have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
I'm not sure, but I couldn't get into it. It was a waste of my Audible credit.
What about Susan Lyons’s performance did you like?
Her reading was fine.
