A review by sally_v23
Snake Bite by Andy Lane

4.0

After reading a period piece, I was craving a light and fun read. I have been reading the Young Sherlock Holmes series since High School and, although it is a very enjoyable read, I am often distracted by other novels and what could have been a less than a year project has now spanned at least eight years with more books yet to read. Needless to say, this is not a reflection of Andy's Lane ability to humanize and capture the story of how Sherlock became the legend that he is since I find his novels to be compelling. I gave Snake Bite a four star rating since the adventurous tone of the novel, and Sherlock's continuation in developing the skills he is beloved for, were prominent in this installment.
Triggers I noticed while reading: several murders are described and a mild child abuse scene
