Enola Holmes: The Graphic Novels: Book One by Serena Blasco
5.0
Thank you to Netgalley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
4.5 stars
I absolutely loved this graphic novel! There were 3 separate cases told in this book, with The Case of the Missing Marquess being a part of the Netflix movie. My Enola Holmes experience is limited to the movie and reading Enola Holmes and the Black Brouche. It's easy to be transported into Enola's world no matter how much you have read or seen.
This graphic novel does start at the beginning where Enola's mom disappears. Each separate part packs the entire case into a small amount of pages, but the whole thing is there. A lot of the time I feel like graphic novels lose a lot being (usually) short and not having a lot of words, but this one really did a great job of having the whole story in all 3 cases.
I absolutely loved the art style. It was beautiful. It was almost like a watercolor, especially in the backgrounds. There were also Enola's notebook pages in between the cases which I found really cool. It kind of showed pictures and Enola's notes and newspaper clippings and I thought that was a really interactive addition to the book.
I'm really excited to continue reading the Enola Holmes novels and I can't wait for another graphic novel addition!
