I really liked this book.

I liked this book and thought it was even better than the original. I found it fun to try to work out the case as I read the book. The murder most unladylike series is turning out better than I expected and definitely recommend it.

There are lots of surprises

I ABSOLUTELY ADORE THIS SERIES! Robin Stevens writes them so well! My favourite character in this one is Hazel, because she is so different to Daisy but they get along so well! I would recommend this to anyone who likes historical fiction and murder mystery!

I really enjoyed this book but I was suprised when we found out he was a thief but he did not need to die

I like this book because I like mystery. My favourite character is Daisy Wells. It is a fictional book. I would recommend it to others.

My favourite part is when Mr Curtis gets murdered and Daisy and Hazel have to find out who the murderer is.

I loved how everything kind of fitted together once the case is solved (not a spoiler by the way mysteries always get solved in murder mystery books). It just seemed right to do that. And the fact that the mystery felt so connected to Daisy but really wasn't was a good story line too. I also like how Kitty and Beanie are there as half main characters but not as important as Daisy and Hazel. Very good, but read Murder Most Unladylike first for character development (not so much in this book but in the others there is a lot).

The second in the Murder Most Unladylike series, this book sees the members of the Detective Society investigating a new case at Daisy's home. If you enjoy Enid Blyton and detective stories, this is for you.

This book is a murder mystery set at Daisy's home. The mysterious Mr Curtis is murdered by arsenic. Daisy and Hazel set out to find the culprit. I enjoyed this book.

This book is about two school girls that are best friends . At the moment they are at one of the girl’s houses and a horrible old man called Mr Curtis has been murdered by a resident of the house ,the girls are trying to find out who is the murderer and who can be ruled out of their suspect list . My favourite character was Hazel because she is normally the person who discovers the most important clues in both books (this is book two of the series) . I really like this series of books so I would recommend this book to people who like crime and mystery books.

I enjoyed how you could try to solve the case as the book went along. Also after reading each chapter I would find out new things to see if I could figure out who it was. I would recommend this to my friends.

Just sooo GOOD!

It’s really good and it has a moral: Don’t underestimate the kindest people in the house. There had been a murder at Daisy’s house and that means there was a mystery. Daisy and Hazel do undercover detecting, finding out a very good secret along the way, and found out the murderer was Bertie’s best friend!!

I LOVE THIS BOOK! Arsenic for Tea is a lovely murder mystery. My favourite character is Hazel Wong because she is gaining independence. I recommend this book to any mystery lovers!

I would definitely recommend it.

It’s soooo good so many mysteries. It is good and has some good parts to read to rabbits and guinea pigs (in their run)

26 Aug 2021

I really enjoyed this book and the murderer was the person I least expected it to be but it makes sense. I would recommend this book to the 11+ age group. My favourite character is Daisy Wells.

23 Aug 2021

As the second book of many it just tops the first. the way the murder is set up even i didn't see who the murderer was, i loved all of the characters it would be impossible choose just one to be my favourite. i adore this wonderful fiction mystery, it has great characters, a fabulous plot and a great addition to the series. i can not press how much i enjoyed this book. i would and will be recommending this book to all my friends and family. this book is perfect for any detective.
5 star rating from me

I love The murder most unladylike series

14 Aug 2021

Great book. I'm re-reading the whole Murder Most Unladylike series because I got 'Death Sets Sail' for my birthday, but I haven't read 'Top Marks For Murder', 'Death in The Spotlight', and 'Cream Buns and Crime', so I have to read those first.

09 Aug 2021

I thought it was very good and would read it again. I liked Daisy because she was very confident. I would recommend it to others. Overall it is a great book.
