The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency was a quick, easy, and fun read -- which was exactly what I was looking for when I went hunting through my bookshelf.
Precious Ramotswe inherited a sum of money when her father passed away, and used it to open her business -- the first and only ladies' private detective agency in Botswana. She sets about solving mysteries, helping her neighbors, and navigating her own troubles.
This is not an intellectual read. It's not high literature. But it is entertaining. It's easy and breezy in the same way the Harry Potter books are. If you feel the need for a lightweight mystery (though even that might be overstating it), this is a good pick.
