Excellent adaptation of the Enola Holmes books! Beautiful watercolor-style art that I could look at all day, coupled with cute and cheeky character depictions; three fun mysteries in one volume (plus an as-yet-unsolved overarching mystery); inspired addition of notebooks at the end of each mystery showing Enola's thoughts, processes, and codes (including the language of flowers used throughout); and the inclusion of some heavier themes like sexism (Sherlock's and Mycroft's, but society's as well), bigotry, poverty, etc. Perfect for middle grade mystery lovers and anyone who enjoyed the Enola Holmes books or movie.
