Just by reading the title I know I will be laughing my booty off. I admit that before this I’ve heard of it or the author before. It sounds interesting but if it’s like you review describe I probably wouldn’t like it.
Hahahah it is indeed a charismatic and interesting character! I feel like there’s so much potential to the story and that it would’ve been best exploited in the form of a longer story, like the Sherlock Holmes stories! Thank you for reading though! 😁
I’ve only read two. I’m not a fan of old English ’cause English isn’t my first language so old English it makes it hard to enjoy as much as others do but I still want to continue it.
Finally someone who reads Arsene Lupin! This might be blasphemy, but I love him more than Sherlock 😀 His flair and humor really got you cheering for him!
I was super curious to see who might know Arsène Lupin and who might have read some of his stories too! So glad to hear from a fan! However… I got too much love for Sherlock to put him second to Arsène Lupin! 😁 I am curious to see what other adventures he might have went on!
Oh, i remember this character from some old movies i used to see on telly when i was little! Even then the movie seemed like it was 100 years old 😀
Nice, gonna have to check out the book 🙂 That cover is awesome too.
Hahahah so cool that you recognize the character though! It’s definitely something nice to tick off your checklist of iconic characters in the whole “mystery” game though. 😉
The character sounds really interesting! Even though I’ve heard his name a lot, I’ve never been curious enough to actually read the books or learn anything about him! I’m not really a fan of short stories, it’s hard to truly appreciate the story or the characters, I always feel like something’s missing or it leaves me with a weird feeling of disappointment, haha 😂
Great review, Lashaan! 😄
He really is! I’ve heard of him once and they dared say he was better than Sherlock Holmes and since that day I’ve always wanted to find out why. Conclusion? He isn’t. 😂 But he’s definitely a nice creation. The short story format just wasn’t ideal in my books for this to win my heart. 😁 Totally agree with you there. Thank you, toi. 😜

I didn’t even care for the Lupin the 3rd anime, so I doubt the original novels would work for me 😀

Hahaha while they’re related, I have no clue if they’re similar though; I’ve never tried the anime.

Raffles and Dr. Thorndyke are good, but my favorites are still Conan Doyle and Dashiell Hammett.

Don’t make me choose a fave between Sherlock and the Bat! They are both the awesomest dudes ever!

Totally admire your determination! I think the biggest challenge yet was Charles Dickens’ writing. Soooo not easy to read sometimes!

I really like the idea of book of short mysteries. Especially if they are good, and hold up over the years.

Some of them are definitely better than others, but it’s always worth trying out what’s known as a classic today! 😁
