I read this book in a day, and I’m a very slow reader. I’m a huge Sherlock fan and I’m very nitpicky about recreations and reimaginings but I loved this one so so so much. 
ALSO HOLMES AND WATSON ARE SO ADORABLE TOGETHER IM MELTING IT’S SO CUTE <spoiler/>

This book included entirely unnecessary plots of rape and perpetuated rape culture and victim blaming. 

This book could have been a really fun read, but every time I found myself starting to enjoy it again, something disturbing would happen.  <spolier> The entire plot point of Charlotte falling in love with a grown man and getting so angry that he would not love her back that she FRAMED HIM is exactly what fuels the idea that young girls are crazy and “asking for it.” And to have Briony orchestrate Charlottes rape was absolutely unnecessary and straight up disturbing.</spolier> The book would have been complete and good without those two points so I fail to see how they compel the story. 

I would heavily NOT recommend this to any self respecting feminist.
