![]() ![]() One section shows her listening to a long recounting of her father’s life at school. I feel like it should have been harder to believe that she’s eleven years old, but for some reason, I wasn’t really bothered by that as I was reading. ![]() I thought Flavia cleverly followed the thread of the mystery, having her own child-like moments here and there between highly analytical research, experiments and deductions. Sort of the only-I-can-mess-with-my-sister type of thing. ![]() ![]() There’s an undercurrent of protectiveness and caring in there, too. She has an interesting relationship with her two older sisters which mostly consists of giving each other a hard time and playing tricks on one another. I liked what I’d read, but got sidetracked by other things and didn’t pick it up again until now.įlavia is spunky and whip-smart. I borrowed THE SWEETNESS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PIE from the library but only got maybe halfway through before having to return it. A long time ago, after I reviewed and enjoyed a mystery featuring a young narrator, someone suggested the Flavia de Luce series to me. ![]()
