Full disclosure， I’ve never read the books and I watched the movie first。 Sacrilege， I know！ I thought the illustrations were beautiful。 The mysteries were fun。 I feel like I was just let down because I wanted more story。 Maybe I should’ve read the books instead。

After having watched the remarkable and well-acted Enola Holmes movie on Netflix， I knew as soon as I saw this for review on NetGalley I had to get my hands on it to read。 The graphic novels were a lot of fun， full of adventure， and contained a mystery or two that were engaging。 The watercolor-esque depiction of the stories was a beautiful twist on a traditional graphic novel。 The illustrations popped with color， are full of life， and I enjoyed the graphic novel adaptation。The time period these After having watched the remarkable and well-acted Enola Holmes movie on Netflix， I knew as soon as I saw this for review on NetGalley I had to get my hands on it to read。 The graphic novels were a lot of fun， full of adventure， and contained a mystery or two that were engaging。 The watercolor-esque depiction of the stories was a beautiful twist on a traditional graphic novel。 The illustrations popped with color， are full of life， and I enjoyed the graphic novel adaptation。The time period these novels are set in is very different than the one we live in currently。 Therefore， Enola Holmes deals with suffrage， women not being in positions of power， women's proper place in society， how women are supposed to act and look， all on much different levels than women are treated today。 We still are told how to act and look but we also do what we want anyway。 More women are in positions of power but we're still fighting that glass ceiling。 Seeing Enola encounter these traditionalist views and work through them was a wonderful part of each story。I enjoyed all the mysteries in this first volume and look forward to many more。 。。。more

I really liked the watercolor graphics and the way it’s storyboarded on the pages。 However I wonder how much our students will relate to it since it’s in the past， but the Netflix series might encourage some to pick it up。 I like how snarky and bright Enola is as well。

Charming， whimsical watercolours illustrate the wonderful Enola Holmes’ first three adventures。 Her energy and intelligence come through in Serena Blasco’s artwork。 Also， this was a fun way to experience this smart young woman’s experiences in London， solving mysteries and handily outwitting her two older brothers Sherlock and Mycroft。 I hope Blasco has illustrated Enola's next three adventures， as I’d definitely reread them in comic form。Thank you to Netgalley and to Andrews McMeel Publishing f Charming， whimsical watercolours illustrate the wonderful Enola Holmes’ first three adventures。 Her energy and intelligence come through in Serena Blasco’s artwork。 Also， this was a fun way to experience this smart young woman’s experiences in London， solving mysteries and handily outwitting her two older brothers Sherlock and Mycroft。 I hope Blasco has illustrated Enola's next three adventures， as I’d definitely reread them in comic form。Thank you to Netgalley and to Andrews McMeel Publishing for this ARC in exchange for my review。 。。。more

This graphic novel was my introduction to Enola Holmes， Sherlock and Mycroft’s younger sister。 Enola’s birth was a scandal and she’s not planning on conforming to society’s expectations of women anytime soon。 She conducts herself in a fashion most unladylike by refusing to wear the appropriate dress length for her age and， horror of horrors， climbing trees。 Her mother’s disappearance on the occasion of her fourteenth birthday brings Enola’s brothers out of the woodwork。 Visiting Ferndell Hall fo This graphic novel was my introduction to Enola Holmes， Sherlock and Mycroft’s younger sister。 Enola’s birth was a scandal and she’s not planning on conforming to society’s expectations of women anytime soon。 She conducts herself in a fashion most unladylike by refusing to wear the appropriate dress length for her age and， horror of horrors， climbing trees。 Her mother’s disappearance on the occasion of her fourteenth birthday brings Enola’s brothers out of the woodwork。 Visiting Ferndell Hall for the first time in ten years， they quickly determine that the most appropriate course of action is to send Enola to boarding school。This goes against Enola’s sensibilities and those of her currently absent mother， so before she embarks on the very ladylike occupation of learning how to be a “houseplant”， Enola absconds to London。 Smart girl， our Enola。Sherlock and Mycroft are clearly products of their time and probably think they have Enola’s best interests at heart。 However， their brotherly love leaves a lot to be desired。 Leave her be， Mycroft。 She is too young and her head is too small for her body。 We can’t expect too much of her。 Enola is able to use society’s propensity to underestimate women to her advantage， relying on her wits and penchant for disguises to hide in plain sight。 Brother Sherlock may be a famous detective but Enola gives him a run for his money in these adaptations of the first three books of Nancy Springer’s The Enola Holmes Mysteries。 Enola takes it upon herself to solve The Case of the Missing Marquess， The Case of the Left-Handed Lady and The Case of the Bizarre Bouquets。I enjoyed the watercolour illustrations， which felt even more appropriate when I learned that’s the medium Enola’s mother uses。I haven’t met Enola’s mother yet but I love her already。 She’s a suffragist who’s schooled her daughter in activities that will be useful， as opposed to those that will facilitate her transformation into a houseplant。Enola’s adaptability and attention to detail are aided by the tools her mother left her， primarily a book on the language of flowers and a handbound notebook full of coded messages。 Enola is “alone” spelled backwards。Mum and her love of coded messages。Could it be a coincidence？ I loved the clever use of flowers to convey messages and the inclusion of excerpts from Enola’s secret notebook at the end of each case。Enola’s inquiring mind and indomitable spirit made me want to spend more time with her。 I look forward to hanging out with Enola as she continues to subvert her allotted position in nineteenth century London in future graphic novel adaptations。 I’ve already ordered the first book in Nancy Springer’s series from the library。Thank you so much to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for the opportunity to read this graphic novel。Blog - https://schizanthusnerd。com 。。。more

Really enjoyed Sherlock's （way more） younger sister's pursuit。 Enola was as smart as her brother， solving mysteries as he as well。 The author wrote this as a young adult novel， so it is not as hard to decipher as Sherlock's。 And for those who prefer comics to novels， this one is recommended。 I literally made time to read this wonderful book。 Really enjoyed Sherlock's （way more） younger sister's pursuit。 Enola was as smart as her brother， solving mysteries as he as well。 The author wrote this as a young adult novel， so it is not as hard to decipher as Sherlock's。 And for those who prefer comics to novels， this one is recommended。 I literally made time to read this wonderful book。 。。。more
