Favorite Uncle by Ben Aaronovitch
3.0
lighthearted fast-paced

I'm reading through the stories in the Tales from the Folly collection, and while I'm enjoying them, I'm noticing that Aaronovitch has the habit of some fairly abrupt ends in his stories. Not in all of them, to be fair, but it's happened more than I'd like and it kind of makes me want to reach into the pages and say "But what about this bit?" Granted, he's probably not that interested in how Abigail explains everything to Babs, but being hired by her to investigate the weird uncle was how the story got started to begin with!

Babs deserves a little more for her forty pounds, is what I'm saying.
