Readers, you might have heard of Enola Holmes thanks to the movies. But did you know there’s a book series based on Enola as well? It’s a young adult mystery series. The series has eight books written by Nancy Springer. If you like the mystery series or are a fan of Nancy Drew, then you may add these books to your reading pile as well. Because these books are fun to read. Additionally, you also get Sherlock Holmes along with Enola, so that’s amazing too.
Books are better than movies, and as a reader, who cares if the movie was actually better when there are eight books for you to read straight away? Am I right, or am I right? From the trailer, the movie really looked promising to us, but then we found ourselves on the internet, and guess who’s not watching yet another movie based on a book? You are right; that’s us.
This makes us think of our books, sitting in a corner singing, “It’s me, hi, I’m the problem, it’s me”. And yes, we don’t mind these problems at all. If you don’t mind it too, then you may read these books in the given order.
