You really should read this book! Eve...Hey, Brian!<br /><br />You really should read this book! Even though it's in the YA genre, it is in no way "too silly or immature". Thankfully, the story has been handled very competently indeed!<br /><br />Yes, Charlotte is just as flawed as Sherlock Holmes, and in exactly the same ways. Of ocurse, she's a teen, so that, too, is part of it.<br /><br />This is definitely a GREATMaria Beharhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13635809880830316283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5276110560172164522.post-25729456929552358962017-01-31T05:30:23.682-05:002017-01-31T05:30:23.682-05:00Hey maria,
I think that the premise of this book ...Hey maria,<br /><br />I think that the premise of this book is a really neat idea. But this had handled the wrong way, say it was too silly or immature, it had the potential to be very bad. Based on your commentary it sounds like the author avoided those pitfalls.<br /><br />I think that it is also a good thing that Charlotte is quirky and flawed. Of course that makes everything more interestingBrian Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15139559400312336791noreply@blogger.com
