The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie (Flavia de Luce, Bk 1)
reviewed on + 2 more book reviews


What captivated me in this book is the 12 year-old detective Flavia. She is delightful and much smarter than any 12 year-old should be. The action of the novel carries the reader at a steady pace,neither too frantically nor too slowly to the solution of the murder which is the main story of the book. It is a very happy little read that can be enjoyed by any reader who likes a nice English country mystery. Well written too which makes the experience all the more delightful.
