Just finished reading Alexander McCall Smith's newest book, 'La's Orchestra Saves the World' and thoroughly loved it. I was leery at first since I tend to shy away from books dealing with WWII...it's just not my favorite era, but this book was wonderful. Very soothing and a treat from start to finish. It's definitely a book to buy and re-read.
One more thing...this book is very different from his others. It stands alone, and, as far as I know, his other writings are in sets of volumes. And while I'm not a keen fan of his other books (though they have the most wonderful covers), this one was a peach.
