Review title: Extremely unfunny; extremely over-rated
Product review: After being charmed by the Ladies #1 Detective Agency series, I eagerly purchased this book for an airplane flight to an academic conference. I found it tedious, irrelevant, unfunny, peopled by tiresome characters not worth the time worrying about--in short, when I finished it, I left it on the airplane. Maybe I just didn't understand the humor. Oh sure, I could get some of the wink-wink, nudge-nudge bits (since I work at a University and know of profs who present the same paper at conference after conference or who think that arcane subjects are so important)--but it just didn't work for me.
