I really like not only the style, but the color combo as well.

This is a classy update on a classic murder mystery tale. Miss Agatha cheats a little bit in her mysteries, as you never quite get enough information to figure out whodunit until the big reveal at the end, but still an entertaining ride for fans of old Hercule Poirot. Mr Branagh does costume drama better than just about anyone else and this is a stylish take. Well worth your time.

Creative patterns that are not too difficult.  The styles are right on trend.  I have knitted the one on the cover several times and received compliments.

I love his genre when the tle is woven well, but I rarely find one. This one is a hit!

A diferent style from the previous books I read from the same author.  Worth reading.

The fit is absolutely perfect and this polo has a contemporary flair (i.e. it's not too long). It is not so heavy as to be uncomfortable and not so light as to look "cheap." (But, this is not "office-quality" ... if you want that, spend just a little more and grab a few by Chaps or Nautica).

A nice wardrobe staple ... especially, for weekend wear.

Looking for an in-between season coat/raincoat, I'm 5'3" 112 lb, and as is usual with a Calvin Klein, the XS fits well. (Also as expected the arms are about an inch longer than usual, but that's typical CK, and perhaps just as well if one wants maximum protection from the weather.)  Received the coat this morning and took it along on my overnight, mid-November air trip from Louisiana to Wisconsin in the afternoon. The style will be a perfect bridge from casual wear on the plane to sort-of dressy business tomorrow.
The coat is long enough to hide a short dress, but show off tall boots; it's not so long, that my shorter stature is overwhelmed by too much cloth. Its trim, slightly shaped design leave it roomy enough for a lot of layering, if necessary, and allow for comfort while seated. Tonight, arriving late at the hotel, the temperature is in the 40s with a gusty, stiff wind and misty rain, and I'm struck at how well this basic coat with a thin nylon lining is keeping out the cold air and water, Meanwhile, wearing it in 70-plus degree weather earlier, the coat was more comfortable than one had a right to expect. Having read all the reviews before I bought, I was surprised to find the coat is substantial, far from being a flimsy "light-weight" that some had intimated. And, unlike some reviews for other mid-season coats, it appears this one will not readily set itself into wrinkles when sat in or packed. The coat's tailored styling is dressed up by its slightly sheened, woven fabric and small silver findings. The front zipper is hidden by a wide front placket, allowing the coat a dressier look. Deep front pockets are on-seam and while without zippers, are placketed to provide another tailored detail, to keep belongs in place, and keep out the weather. In fact, lack of zippers, tailored seaming, quality fabric, and small shiny findings, boost this coat to a level I hadn't expected. Thanks, Amazon!

I must say that I thoroughly enjoy the style in which these short stories are written and this one once again lives up to the standards set by the Woodville's previous shorts.
The book description in the kindle store had me a little on the defensive and expecting technicality and numbers and honestly just not this entertaining of a short. I like how the story is woven with irony, a bit of mystery and also describes some of the schemes used by the characters without going in too much detail. Just enough to sustain the interest.

A good read that I highly recommend.

One might think both author and reader would be jaded after writing and reading twelve books set in the same place, with the same characters, the same minor crimes and mysteries, and the same preoccupation with tea and tea time, but not so. Alexander McCall Smith's The Saturday Big Tent Wedding Party, like its predecessors, is another gentle homecoming, one more welcome reunion. Posterity will hardly rate McCall Smith's detective books as classics, yet I eagerly look forward  to the next in his series. One of the reasons, I think, is because of the author's skillful use of what I call, for lack of a better term, "aftershadowing." (Readers must read McCall's series sequentially or they'll miss out on this delightful quality.)

By the time the reader has turned one-third of the pages, he has been reminded of all the qualities, the idiosyncracies, the moral viewpoints of the main characters: Maa Ramotswe's gentle, common sense wisdom (surely, Precious is the vehicle for McCall's own value system and observations on the complexities of human nature: "She had seen shocking things in the course of her work, even here in Botswana, a good country where...people had rights; human nature, of course, would find its way round the best of rules and regulations." Her associate, the spitfire Grace Makutusi, ninety-seven per center and graduate summa cum laude of the Botswana Secretarial College and cobbler's dream come true (Grace's footwear follies continue.) The feckless apprentice Charlie and co-apprentice Fanwell, devoted caretaker of his family. Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni, master mechanic, nurturing father and husband. The orphanage director Maa Potokwane and her use of fruit cake to leverage free services. Wending her way through earlier books and weasling on in this latest is the homewrecker, schemer, vixen, Violet Sephotho (barely fifty per cent from the BSC), who this time around has apparently decided to ply her wiles in the arena of politics. And as always, there's the guiding presence of the "late" Obed Ramotswe, that great man, fancier of cattle, loving father of Precious, and great patriot of Botswana.

In McCall's Smith's latest novel old storylines are finished: Maa Makutsi and the alliterative Phuti Radiphuti tie the knot, and Maa Ramotswe has a mechanical, though serendipitous, reunion. New problems arise and are resolved: an imprudent maternity; a questionable paternity. The old adage "Good fences make good neighbors" figures in solving a problem--a problem, which though resolved, is not fully understood. In this novel Ramotswe shares a good deal more wisdom from her mentor Clovis Andersen and his significant "how to" book The Principles of Private Detection, and we are even given a privileged peek into the private life of the master detective himself.

The Saturday Big Tent Wedding Party reads like Mccall Smith's others, each book a verbal massage; Oreo cookies and a cold glass of milk; or a cup of hot, refreshing tea (Bush for Precious; regular for Grace) shared in the company of old friends. And what happens to the aspiring politician Violet Sephotho? Only Book Thirteen will tell.

I like dressier polos with "microtexturing" (barely noticable patterning) a lot. This one is right up my alley. I like it a lot.

What a great collection of sweaters, jackets, and capes with contemporary styling.  The designs are interesting and will be noticed when made and worn.  This is a keeper!

I really like the style, fabric, weight and design... XL is generally what I wear - and this is a form fitting XL - (probably should have gotten the XXL - considering the difference in European sizing - but the XL works)... It is excellent as a standalone over a shirt on 'coolish' days... and also works well as an underlayment as needed...

The Secret Wedding brings Jo Beverley back into the winner's circle. Her last few efforts were good - but not great. This book, however, is written with style, intelligence and good old-fashioned fun. It's why I originally started reading Jo Beverley all those years ago. I'm not quite sure what the previous reviewer meant about "tired" hero and heroine. Christian and Caro are two of the most exciting, energetic, fun characters Beverley has created in a long time. Many of her recent books seem dark and serious. This romp is full of mistaken identities, a chase through the countryside, highly-charged chemistry between the hero and heroine and a completely satisfactory conclusion. I found "The Secret Wedding" to be a fun, thrilling ride. There was never a dull moment in the novel. Instead of getting this book at the library, as the other reviewer suggested, this is one novel I'm glad I purchased. We must have read two completely different books. I say buy it. You won't be disappointed.

Love the fit and the style!  I wanted something different yet stylish and this tip fits the bill.

I bought this shirt simply for one reason, the style. Probably, for some customers this style is not new anymore. WHO CARES!!!!!. IT IS HOW YOU CARRY YOURSELF AND GIVE JUSTICE TO THE SHIRT. I do not simply wear a shirt like this. The technique in fashion industry is "layering". I do not mind the weather if I have to layer my shirt. The car has AC and the office has AC. The most important thing is I am on style. I wash the shirts to shrink them a bit specially if made of cotton.  The fit is perfect. I like the combination of white and blue solid at the back. Tha graphic is simple, but putting a pocket makes it very stylish. Glad I purchased this shirt. REALLY GOOD BUY.

What I really admire about Lee Nichol's writing is her ability to take a seemingly aimless characters (in this case, Anne Olsen; in her previous book, Elle) and make me love them. I'm a little worried that I identify a bit too closely with Anne and her VD (*not* what you think) but that just made me love her more, and cheer her on as she worked toward getting it all together.

I think the other reviewer is confusing voice for polish. If you don't like the voice, fine, but there's nothing unfinished about this book. It's stylish, pacey and utterly engaging. And as for conflicts introduced late? That's not the case. Indeed, it's a credit to Nichols' talent that she can subtly slip in little hints that zap you towards the end.

And Ian? Yes, please! Even if he *did* win the trifecta ;-)

Great read, great voice, and I'm eagerly awaiting her next release.
