Please note that this review spoils some events from prior books. Well I try to complete series even when I dislike them since sometimes the author can pull things together. Cavallaro almost manages to redeem her characters in the fourth book in the Charlotte Holmes series, but for me, I found mys...
I should have skipped this, but I was hoping that maybe, just maybe Cavallaro could pivot this series. With talk of a fourth book coming out I wanted something interesting out there in the world of Sherlock Holmes and Doctor John Watson. Instead this Young Adult pastiche in the world of Sherlock Hol...
This is a Young Adult story that reboots the Holmes and Watson story with the great great grandchildren of the original Holmes and Watson: Charlotte Holmes and James (don’t call me Jamie) Watson. They find themselves at the same Vermont boarding school. Watson is an American, raised in London for mo...
I am so annoyed. Since I gave book #1 three stars, I hoped for another three star read or higher this time. But due to the lack of any mysteries to solve and just more teen angst and a love triangle that only one person was interested in (Jamie) I was over this book before the end. I haven't read ...

Modern-day take on Holmes and Watson which engages a lot with the implications of being descendants of the most famous Holmes and Watson. I appreciated it without necessarily loving it.
Please note that this book discusses rape. I really wanted to like this book more than I did. Give me another take at Sherlock Holmes and I thought it would be a fantastic book. Unfortunately this book had a terrible character in Jamie Watson (seriously, I couldn't stand him) a convoluted plot, and ...
Some parts were really good and other parts were 'meh'.I was so excited to read this book as a fan of anything that screams 'mystery' and 'Sherlock Holmes'. I'm also talking about a MODERN DAY escapade of Sherlock and Watson, what could go wrong, right? Everything, not everything. I have nothing aga...
SPOILERS AHEAD The lack of lesbians is very disappointing (there are two girls who go to a dance together, but THAT'S IT). Also the story is very white. The idea that Sherlock Holmes and John Watson were real people and the ancestors of Charlotte Holmes and Jamie Watson doesn't work for me. Char...
