this lively, fun detective story was fun to read, but I could not stop being annoyed by the stretching of historical characters.

This is a cute middle-grade mystery imagining the mischief Ada Byron Lovelace and Mary Godwin Shelley could have gotten into had they been contemporaries. With a supporting cast that includes Charles Dickens and Percy Shelley, this novel is an homage of sorts to the greatest creative minds of 19th-century England. A little silly and a little too modern in thinking for the time period, this is still a fun intro to the genre for young readers.

-alternative what if historical fiction in which historical figures Ada Byron and Mary Shelley are you girls who become friends and start a detective agency to catch "clever" criminals who evade capture by the police.
-both characters have differences from each other which makes for interesting exchanges and conversations
-Mary's acceptence of Ada despite Ada's anti social behaviour makes her character a good roll model for young readers.
-book about friendship.
-no violence or fowl language to speak of.… (més)

Fun romp with a reimagined childhood for an excellent cast of Romantic era authors and thinkers -- while it's not a complex read, I'm glad to have soemthing to recommend for fans of Enola Holmes. Between this and Sherlock, Lupin and Me, I'm glad to see a new crop of interesting kid detectives.
