Flavia de Luce is back on the case March 9th in The Weed That Strings the Hangman's Bag. The first book in the series, The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie, was an ALA Best Books for Young Adults nominee in 2009. Although I've wondered where Sweetness fits along the adult-young adult spectrum, I think Flavia - part detective, part mad scientist - is a character too fun for anyone to miss.
(If you haven't read The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie, it's now out in paperback.)
