Pressie from Haloed Hayes. Thank you, thank you very much indeed.Upon opening this I find a yellow rose pressed in tissue couched in to the page (22) that mentions pressed flowers. How thoughtful you are Hayes, how abso-bloody-lutely charming... and you nearly had me blubbering. I will treasure.:O)x...
***Half High Piece of Writing The previous part - "The sweetness at the bottom of the Pie" tasted better but this books was still very enjoyable. It's the second book in Flawia de Luce series so we meet the original girl again. And, not surprisingly, she is involved (or maybe got involved by hers...
I loved the first book and I love the second; in fact, I think the second was slightly better because the character development continued for the main characters.In this mystery, the body doesn’t turn up until nearly half way through the novel.

A nice old-fashioned mystery set in a small town with an overly-elaborate public murder. And a charming and inquisitive young detective.Yum.Library copy

Oh Flavia, you and your poison...This second installment in the Flavia De Luce series was a bit slower than the first (the murder doesn't even occur until half-way through the book!) but more revealing of the De Luce family background, which made up for the slower start. Flavia is freakishly observa...
Flavia De Luce is an 11-year-old amateur detective and almost too bright for her small town surroundings. Being a budding chemist and quite knowledgeable about many things could be boring in Bishop’s Lacey if you didn’t have a murder to investigate.This book moved along quite well and it was a good...
