#BookReview of A Study in Charlotte by @skippingstones

About the Book: 

The last thing Jamie Watson wants is a rugby scholarship to Sherringford, a Connecticut prep school just an hour away from his estranged father. But that’s not the only complication: Sherringford is also home to Charlotte Holmes, the famous detective’s great-great-great-granddaughter, who has inherited not only Sherlock’s genius but also his volatile temperament. From everything Jamie has heard about Charlotte, it seems safer to admire her from afar.

From the moment they meet, there’s a tense energy between them, and they seem more destined to be rivals than anything else. But when a Sherringford student dies under suspicious circumstances, ripped straight from the most terrifying of the Sherlock Holmes stories, Jamie can no longer afford to keep his distance. Jamie and Charlotte are being framed for murder, and only Charlotte can clear their names. But danger is mounting and nowhere is safe—and the only people they can trust are each other.

About the Author: Brittany Cavallaro is a poet, fiction writer, and old school Sherlockian.

My Review: I remember wanting this book all because of the cover that I looooove! I’m a huge Sherlock fan so I was dying to get my hands on it. It was tons of fun to read! The writing was excellent, the story was incredible, the mystery was satisfying, and the twists were great!! Charlotte and Jamie were so freaking cute too! They complemented each other so freaking well. I'm dying to read more about them. I just can't get enough of them. I'm sososo very interested to see what happens next. Time to grab book 2!!
