"Without you, I would only be
a figure pressed between yellowed pages."

If you are Sherlocked like me, you will love this book! It's queer and sweet and relatable and sad and uplifting, everything you'd want from a book, and a bonus: character who is obsessed with Sherlock Holmes.
My whole life I was only once attending a party, I wasn't having fun because it wasn't my thing, but I found a bookshelf and while I was browsing I noticed Arthur Conan Doyle section and spent the whole evening reading in that room, that's when my obsession started.
I am obsessed with everything Sherlock Holmes too, not on the same level as main character, Andrew, but I've read and watched most of the books and shows/movies about him and can never have enough!
I'm just like the MC, I'd rather avoid all interactions altogether and read at home.
"Introverts have rechargeable batteries and
mine is empty." He was exactly describing me when he said that about himself.
And the found family 🥹 the best queer found family! They all were so different and so loving and supportive, I wished I had that too.
And the love interest is the cutest cat dad who deserves everything best and I would hug him if I could.
I was devoured this book and left no crumbs, I even loved the acknowledgement section, especially the last part 🥹
This book is a little bit madness, little bit awkwardness and a whole lot of captivating and lovable story with diverse cast of characters and a cat named Hercules!(I love that cat!)
Also while Andrew was thinking about writing a book, I got so excited, he was right, Dracula Holmes is definitely a bestseller material, I'd read that.
I loved this book and will definitely reread again, and will look forward to new books from the author 🥰
