The Beekeeper's Apprentice by Laurie R. King

2.0

Man, I feel like I slogged through this book. Stylistically, it seemed pretty similar to the original Holmes books I love, but I could not. Get. In. To. This. At. All. Also the story was ruined for me when I picked up and read the back of one of the later books in the series and saw "Mary Russell and her husband, Sherlock Holmes...". I'm sorry, she is 19 in this book and he is 56. I don't think so. From there on out, I was skeeved out any time I saw that Holmes "murmured" something to her (although they don't get together in this book).
