Meet Flavia: Mystery Solver. Master Poisoner. 11 Years Old.

СОЛОДЕНЬКЕ НА ДЕНЦІ ПИРОГА
«Солоденьке на денці пирога» - це перша частина з циклу про талановиту дівчину-детектива Флавію де Люс від канадського письменника Алана Бредлі. Дуже шкода, що КСД перестали займатися видавництвом циклу, який наразі нараховує десять книжок, вже на другій частині. Книжки надзвичайно цікаві, а читати їх російською мовою не хочеться. Сподіваюся, що коли-небудь українці все таки зможуть познайомитися з цією книжкою рідною мовою! Перед нами юна дівчина Флавія де Люс, яка росте з двома нестерпними старшими сестрами та дивним батьком, який полюбляє марки, здається, більше за дочок. З дитинства Флавія намагається вижити самотужки і знаходить своє покликання у хімії. Дивне хобі для англійки в 50-тих? Можливо, але коли біля її будинку знаходить труп, її допитливість та зацікавлення до смерті і отрути допоможе їй з’ясувати, хто винен у смерті незнайомця… У серіях про Флавії мені подобається фактично все: англійський гумор, дотепна оповідачка, дивакуваті персонажі, цікаві локації та заплутана детективна лінія. Цікаво буде прочитати всім: дівчатам та хлопцям, дорослим та підліткам. Рекомендую!
