Perfeita continuação de um estudo em charlotte, gostei bastante. Só acho que uma terapia seria bom pra literalmente todos os personagens no livro.
P. S. : se vc tem alguma TW, é mlr ver na internet quais que são, pq eu não sou mt boa com isso, mas eu sei que tem alguns
28/08: reli o livro e continuo amando essa série. O Jamie é muito masoquista, ele tá precisando de um tratamento sério. E literalmente a única pessoa minimamente saudável consegue ser um Moriarty.

In the follow up to "A Study in Charlotte", Jamie and Charlotte have a new mystery to solve. Charlotte's beloved uncle has gone missing and the two set out to Germany to find the truth behind his disapperance. But is there something bigger happeing, is the truth a bit too close for comfort, and what has Jamie gotten himself into this time?
Honestly, I had no idea exactly where this story was heading and it was incredibly fun. I have to agree with everyone telling Jamie to run as far away from the Homeses as possible, even if I deeply sympathize with Charlotte. Immediately checking out the next book!

this book was certainly not as good as the first book in the series, a study in charlotte, but i still really enjoyed it!! one of my favorite things about it was the different settings!! they were all so cool and set such a perfect vibe! i was also really fond of the whole art forgery aspect being a person who likes art history. just like the first book, it was super engaging and addicting especially with all of the usual cleverness and wittiness :)
one thing that i didn't like though was how confusing the plot was at times. thinking back now having read this book a little while ago, i'm struggling to remember a whole lot of the major plot events. i think this is partially due to the fact that i didn't fully understand everything the first time. the ending especially confused me, but i'm really hoping that the next book with clear some things up. there also felt like there were just so so many characters to keep track of too which also make it difficult at times. despite, these few qualms, i am still eager to read the next book in the series, the case for jamie, (hopefully) sometime soon!!
