Agatha Raisin

Today I finished a series of books called The Agatha Raisin Mysteries by M.C. Beaton.  Agatha is a middle aged retired public relations executive in Great Britan.  She stumbles into murder and mayhem, and generally causes a lot of problems for the local police. 

I love her because she has no idea how bossy, opinionated, abrasive and self absorbed she is.  Every time a handsome male comes into the picture, she makes a fool of herself trying to capture him.  She has a group of friends who are fully aware of her faults and like her anyway. 

Each book has twists and turns until she finally figures out "who done it".  There are twenty three books so far, and I'm waiting for more.  They are very light reading and only take about a day to get through; full of humor and fun.

'Til later...
