Book Review: A STUDY IN SCARLET (Lady Sherlock # 1) by Sherry Thomas

A Study in Scarlet Women (Lady Sherlock, #1)A Study in Scarlet Women by Sherry Thomas

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


The hype is real! Ahaha.

I've been a fan of Sherry Thomas ever since I picked up one of her romance novels.

For someone who studied English as a second language only as a teenager, her mastery of it is exquisite, her sentences crafted with the skill of an artisan. You read Sherry Thomas not only for the plot and dialogue, but also for the pleasure of her turns of phrase.

What if Sherlock Holmes was a lady who loves eating far too much and constantly uses her genius for legitimate feminine concerns such as working out (to the pound!) the exact weight that will give her a one point four (decimals included!!!) double chin? Apart from solving crimes, of course.

Extremely grateful to those who recommended the series, and all the more that Books 2 and 3 in the series are available, with Book 4 coming soon! Oh, it's a fine time to be alive.
