I am Half-Sick of Shadows

I Am Half-Sick of Shadows - Alan Bradley

“Although it is pleasant to think about poison at any season, there is something special about Christmas, and I found myself grinning.”

 

I fall pretty firmly into the camp of

Turkey telling Santa to Backoff

but it snowed this week and I wanted to read this book so here we are reading a Christmas book during the first week of November. 

 

 

This was another delightful Flavia book. The mystery was pretty light on this one and it's more about Flavia trying to figure out if Father Christmas is real or not. I enjoyed Flavia's sisters more in this one and we got to find out more about the mysterious and wonderful Dogger. This book did seem shorter than the other books, though I'm not sure if it was, but at any rate it was and easily enjoyable book.
