I have always loved Sherlock and now Enola! I didn’t know much about her until the Netflix show. I’m so excited that season two will be coming out in November, by the way! I saw this on Netgalley and just had to request it! I’m so glad I did.

You get three different mysteries in this book. I didn’t realize this was volume two but now need to get my hands on volume one! If you enjoy the show, Sherlock, or just mysteries then I think you will love this one. Not only, did I love how she was able to capture the mysteries in graphic novel format but the Illustrations are amazing. These illustrations are so beautiful that I slowed way down to read this and really pay attention to the beauty.

There are many themes of feminism and freedom throughout all three of these mysteries. Enola is trying to find her mother at the beginning and ends up going through several different avenues. It brings her to all these cases and by the end, we get some clarity. The growth Enola’s brothers have isn’t the greatest but better at the end. I think they are finally starting to respect her and see that she’s capable. The different disguises that Enola can perfect are very entertaining as well.

Overall, I really enjoyed this set of stories and highly recommend them to younger audiences! It’s a bit simplistic but I loved that about it. I’m telling you the illustrations are so gorgeous that it will be hard not to love this for that alone.

Many thanks to Netgalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for an e-ARC to review!
