SYNOPSIS: Flavia De Luce is too smart for her own good. At eleven-years-old, there is a murder at her home, and she is determined to get to the bottom of it herself.
AUNT SHARON'S TAKE: I really loved this book. It was a fun story, with a lovable protagonist, who has us cheering right from the start. However, there is a brief reference to a sexual predator, and there is a murder, as well. Also, anyone who reads this book will want their dictionary handy, because there is a lot of advanced vocabulary in it. I would recommend it more for young adults and adults, but a mature teen could handle it as well.
