Arsenic for Tea is a book that has no ups and downs, as it's simply all ups! By the second chapter this amazing book had all of my attention and I was dying to find out what happens next.
Daisy is having a birthday tea when one of the guests becomes seriously ill. Their symptoms suggest that they have been murdered! Who would have done such a horrible thing? Well Daisy and her best friend Hazel put their minds to it and are determined to find out!
The author has fantastic writing skill and the character descriptions are out of this world, I found myself still guessing about them when I'd finished the book! Miss Alton is personally my favourite character because you never actually know who she is but it is impossible to not LOVE Daisy.
As I was reading this book I was making my own suspect list and having a great time trying to find out who the murderer was! This book is truly amazing! These mysteries and clues lead to one thing, the criminal, but who do YOU think it is…?
