The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie



I just finished The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie by Alan Bradley. It was a recommendation from a friend and I loved it! It is set in England and it is a mystery, so I guess there is not much of a surprise that I enjoyed it. Flavia de Luce is the almost eleven year old that is busy solving mysteries at the family's ancient country house. She quickly became a favorite literary character. And the best part is that there is a sequel. Can't wait to read it!

I've had this recommended to me by a number of people - but the title and the description sort of turned me off.

But then, Maisie Dobbs and Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society were winners, so I guess I will give it a try!
