The Case of the Missing Marquess



Author: Nancy Springer
Genre: Mystery, adventure
Series: An Enola Holmes Mystery
Number in series: 1st
My rating on a 1-10 scale: 8.5
Type: Fiction
Number of pages: 215
Time period: 1800’s (late)
My overall opinion: It was good! Better, I confess, than I had expected. This series is written for grade-school kids, and I wasn’t a real fan of the covers, so. However, it was fun! Enola Holmes is a sister of THE Sherlock and Mycroft Holmes. She solves mysteries in a somewhat similar manner. It was exciting and clean of teen romance, language, or anything else objectionable. A relief, that was. J I recommend this one, and once I read the others, probably them too!

I love these books! I love her little comments, and how she always says 'unmentionables' LOL. My favorite is probably "The Case of the Gypsy Goodbye" or "The Case of the Cryptic Crinoline."
