Reunited

I have just started the new book in the Flavia de Luce series by Alan Bradley called Speaking From Among the Bones. The book is about twelve year old detective Flavia who lives with her two older sisters and father. The series is set in the past but I am unsure as the year. Flavia continually finds murders in her small English town. Flavia is an avid chemist and at the beginning has found another dead body in the church.
I am really excited to delve even deeper into this book. I haven't read a series in a while and I forgot what it feels like to start reading a new book in a series. The feeling is great- its like picking up right where you left off! It reminds me of visiting people that you don't see often but still know them really well.I'm really interested to see how the relationships between all the characters progress. There is also a threat throughout the book that has existed the entire series that Flavia and her family will lose the castle like estate they live in due to money problems. I can't imagine the family living anywhere else so I am interested to see if they will have to move or if they will find a way to stay. And if they do leave, where will they go?  Alan Bradley, the author, is currently writing the series so this book is new. I love this series and can't wait to read even more!
