I absolutely love this book, the writing is amazing and it's full of clever puzzles🕵️♀️!! I haven't seen the Enola Holmes tv series yet, should I?
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5 stars)
You can read my full review on my blog, here's an excerpt🔎:
A brilliant book! Enola Holmes: The Case of the Missing Marquess has Sherlock Holmes’ clever fourteen-year-old sister delving into a captivating mystery full of family secrets, deception and disguises!
...
The plot is gripping, and the intimate writing style draws you in from the start. You feel as though Enola is talking directly to you through the pages. All the mysteries and coded messages entwined with the story are absolutely fascinating and show the care the author took with this book. Among my favourite parts are when Enola comes face to face with a riddle and you get to see how she puzzles through it to come to a brilliant solution. The book is filled with rich descriptions of Victorian life, from the peaceful existence of a country manor to the dangers of the streets of London, which give the story an immersive feel. Little details, such as the way people act and talk, seem to take you right back to the nineteenth century...
It’s amazing to have a brilliant Sherlock-Holmes-type story told from a girl’s point of view. In fact, instead of being a hindrance as her brothers believe, being a girl is actually an advantage for Enola, as it allows her to learn things belonging to the Victorian world of women, such as the language of flowers, which can be crucial to solving mysteries. This, along with Enola’s excellent deductive logic and investigative skills, make her a great detective and her adventures really interesting!
