39. It was very good
It has favorable comment in it by Louise Penney who writes the Armand Gamache mysteries that take place in Toronto. Try these also. The TheCentepedeShoes turned me onto Penney.

Surprised me that Alan Bradley was born in Toronto and was 70 when he wrote subject title, his first novel. I'll be reading the next two in the Flavia series. I hope they're as good - humor, mystery, and not too many a dull moment with this kid.

There's a lot of British terms that I didn't know, but you can figure out what they mean by how they're used. They add, not detract, from the story.
