Ironically I finished reading The Grave's a Fine and Private Place by Alan Bradley the same day I went to a funeral. If I had known it was a mystery I would not have selected it. The heroine in the story is 12 year old Flavia. She lives in England in 1952. The author wrote a series of novels about her crime solving abilities. Flavia is a child prodigy with chemistry. The dialogue is cute and the book went by quickly. If you like mystery stories you would probably like this book.
