Despite the lack of lesbians, I enjoyed A Study in Charlotte. I think this author has a good handle on what makes anr intriguing mystery, as well as an understanding on how the Holmesesque savant-detective operates. What she doesn't have a great understanding of is the state of Connecticut, which is extremely funny to me as someone who has spent a lot of time there. (Protip: We don't really play rugby over here, not even in the most pretentious tips of New England.)
All-in-all, a solid read. Love the character work especially. Will definitely read the rest of the series.
