A Red Herring Without Mustard: A Flavia de Luce Novel

A Red Herring Without Mustard: A Flavia de Luce Novel - Alan Bradley Full review, as always, at SFF Book Review.I love Flavia de Luce. This was my least favorite of her adventures so far, but mostly due to the fact that I had a hard time connecting the clues and figuring out what the hell this was all about. I loved following Flavia throughout her investigation as she meets new characters and finds out new truths about the inhabitants of her hometown.The overlying theme from the first books was missing here and that's why the book lost a lot of charm for me. However, with a heroine such as Flavia, it is hard to produce a bad book. This is still a 6,5/10 points for me.
