pickI do really like Flavia De Luce. I was just in the mood for her lately and I like that I‘m at the beginning ish end of a long list of books to enjoy. Probably my favorite part of this one is the terrible relationship between her and her sisters and how they torture each other (sometimes literally!) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Flavia de Luce #2 is my new walking book. I‘m up in South Carolina right now, so I was walking along the river. #audiowalk

I don't know if I got to this one in the series-I kinda bailed after a while. Don't know why, I seem to remember enjoying them. 🤷♀️

2nd in this 3 book bundle. I‘m not sure I like Flavia; she‘s precocious and always concocting poisons to try out on her older sisters. She‘s perspicacious and empathetic. She seems to live in an endless summer in an ideal English countryside near Brontë country in the 50s; no mention of school, teachers etc yet. Lots of colourful chemical reactions lovingly described - I don‘t know how accurate they are - and where does she get her reactants from?
pickFlavia is always a pick. I've been slowly re-reading this series over the last few years, but I need to speed up so that I'm ready for the new book coming out this fall.
Day 2 of the #greatercharlottebookcrawl and I‘m done! That was exhausting!
so-so🥱3.5 stars “A book connected to something you read in 2023” This mystery of Flavia‘s lost me halfway. Not the best. Still thrilled to continue to # 5 #iloveFlaviadeLuce #ATYin52 #AroundtheYearin52books
pickFifth book in the series and Flavia never disappoints! She still makes me laugh. (She could so easily veer into being a twee or annoying character but is not!) As usual, Bishop's Lacey offers up a solid mystery to solve involving an entertaining cast of eccentrics. Could feel pieces of future storylines being put in place, which was supported by the final surprise at the end. 🤨 My #cloakanddaggerchristmas pick for child detective. @Ruthiella
