The Case for Jamie Charlotte Holmes Novel Brittany Cavallaro Books

I really wanted to love this book. Holmes and Watson are such strong, unique characters and I couldn’t wait to spend more time with them - but it turns out, what I really wanted was for them to spend more time together. Which is something they do terribly little of in this book. Instead, they spend a lot of time wandering around separately, ruminating and moping and half-heartedly working on a “case” that feels small and childish after what happened in the previous book. Maybe that’s the point - they’re separately healing from some serious psychological wounds and not capable of doing more. But in many places, the story felt dreary to slog through, especially the first half.

But when it’s good, it’s *so* good, which is why it’s still getting four stars from me. Jamie and Charlotte together are lightning, crackling off the page. Cavallaro has something really special with these characters and the world she has created - here’s hoping that she does something more interesting with them next time around.

The Case for Jamie Charlotte Holmes Novel Brittany Cavallaro Books Reviews

3.5 stars. That was a bit of a disappointment. I love this series but this story took foreverrrr to get moving. I was so bored I almost gave up. The last 100 pages finally made the story pay off and sped things up
I love the take on Holmes and Watson. The play on their friendship. The authors speculation on how future enemy’s meet historical foes. While it isn’t a who done it style big BOOM like some thriller/drama/mysteries there are striking events that make the books engaging and fun to read.
I absolutely adore this series. Ms. Cavallaro is a supremely brilliant author who has taken the renowned legacy of Sherlock Holmes and has given it new life with the modern and intoxicating prose that I have been waiting for. This third installment lives up to the suspense and veneration of the first two books and I am so grateful for the experience Ms. Cavallaro and her editors/publishers have provided me by publishing this awesome story line. I cannot WAIT for the next adventure of Jamie and Charlotte!
Compelling and thrilling this is a great conclusion to one of my favorite series. The characters are so real and heartbreaking in the best ways. They all feel fully fleshed out and like their own person, from Charlotte and Jamie down to even the minor of characters. Cavallaro has such a talent for portraying mystery and youth and weaving them together perfectly. It has all the twists and turns of a Sherlock Holmes story with compelling characters that make the familiar feel fresh!
I used my Christmas gift cards to get this book and then I DEVOURED it! The stakes are high. Both of our MC’s are heart broken and their futures are hazy at best. Charlotte breaks my heart so many times. And Jamie, I don’t even know what I would have said to him if I could. The plot is clever and the twists, more so. And in the end, I was so very happy with how Cavallaro brought this installment to an end, I’m not sure I’m prepared to move on to the next book. I might float here a while. Savor where Watson and Holmes are at the moment. Definitely picking up the next one though, so I’ll have it when I’m ready!
I just love Jamie and Charlotte so much. I love the complexity of these characters and their relationship. I didn't like this installment as much as the second book but I still absolutely loved it. I liked a lot of the relationship conflict in this book, but I thought the mystery wasn't as exciting (that's not to say that it isn't good; I still had a great time reading). I'm beyond excited that there's going to be a fourth book. I need more of this in my life. Ugh, I just love it so much. PLS READ THIS SERIES. I know the concept sounds weird, but IT. IS. SO. GOOD.
Far too much teenage angst and living in both Jamie and Charlotte's heads. I did like the alternating chapters but there was very little action and next to no plot. It was all dark thoughts, self-flogging and pop psychology. I guess I'd hoped for more with the third book.
