jmolane 's review for:

Arsène Lupin, Gentleman-Thief by Lorenzo Garza, Maurice Leblanc

4.0

I wanted to read the book(s) after watching the Lupin series on Netflix. Because I was so intrigued by the Netflix series, the book was a little harder to read…just because I have all of the characters in mind from the series. While I almost always like the book better than the movie, in this case, I like the Netflix series better than the book. However, after reading the first 9 “novellas,” in Gentleman Burglar, (The Arrest of Arsene Lupin, Arsene Lupin in Prison, The Escape of Arsene Lupin, The Mysterious Travler, The Queen’s Necklace, The Seven of Hearts, Madame Imbert’s Safe, The Black Pearl, and Sherlock Holmes Arrives Too Late), I find the books somewhat enjoyable and fun to read and just might read more.
