Recommend if you are looking for something easygoing that is beautifully illustrated and just nice to flip through at times
The plot is... questionable?

Cute, but detective story and graphic novel don't really mix. Not enough detail/substance there.

Emily grabbed this from the library a couple weeks ago, and then yesterday we watched the Netflix movie - which was really good! It made me want to check this out since we have it. Hoping Emily will enjoy reading the books by Nancy Springer. This graphic telling of book 1 was quite short and I think she’d appreciate the original more.

Bon roman qui m'a fait rire par moment. J'ai bien aimé l'héroïne et la dynamique qu'elle avait avec les autres personnages. Même si nous voyons peu Sherlock Holmes, nous sentons sa présence à travers les yeux de sœur. J'aime voir le désir d'Énola de retrouver sa mère et de se libérer des contraintes de l'époque face aux femmes. Très belle écriture de l'auteur qui faisait en sorte que je ressentais les mêmes émotions qu'Énola et surtout sa frustration face à l'oppression du corset, les pensionnats, etc.
Lecture qui se fait rapidement car nous embarquons dans l'histoire et voulons en connaître davantage. Le livre n'a fait que me donner envie de lire le reste de la série.
Puisque le film inspiré du roman sortait en septembre 2020, je voyais Millie Bobby Brown, Sam Cuflin, et Henry Cavill en Enola, Mycroft et Sherlock Holmes.

This comic is a brilliant adaptation of the first three Enola Holmes books. The art style is beautiful and does an excellent job in illustrating the world around Enola in a manner that is beautiful and period accurate. Of course this version doesn't have all the same detail as the novels but it is easy enough to follow and it hits on nearly all the main points making it a great abridged version of the books. I thoroughly enjoyed reading them, and it is a great refresher for the earlier parts of the series!

A beautiful adaptation of "The Case of the Missing Marquess," this book does change certain elements of the story, however the charm prevalent through the book series remains in this gorgeous, watercolored edition!
5 out of 5 stars!
