A Study in Emerald | Neil Gaiman

I was surprised, more than I should have been, to find "A Study in Emerald" to be a Sherlock tale and delighted with the fantasy twist! ☕

Jenny Lawson, as always, was such a delight! I cam see myself returning this Halloween essay year after year. ✨

As usual, Gaiman makes me fall more in love with him with each of his works I read...😂🤣 This is the Lovecraft/Doyle mashup you didn‘t know you needed! In true Sherlockian fashion, there‘s a twist that even I didn‘t see coming! 😄😂 What fun! My only complaint is that I want more! #ReadYourSign Prompt 7, a book with your gem (Emerald)

BookmarkTavern This is the first thing I ever read by Neil Gaiman! I was hooked from the beginning! 😁 5y
AshleyHoss820 @ozma.of.oz I don‘t blame you! I think Sandman was my first Gaiman and it was down the rabbit hole! 😄😄😄 He‘s awesome! 5y

3 ⭐Part of me is annoyed I waited so long to read this and the other part of me is mad I did read. It‘s an incomplete story. It spends so much time on set up, and wraps up so quickly that there is quite a bit missing. I want to know more. This is a mash up between Sherlock Holmes and Cathullu in what feels like an alternate world. I would love to read this as a full novel or even additional graphic novels as the artwork was amazing.

Johanna414 Glad you finally got it! That‘s pretty much exactly how I felt about it though... so much potential, and but ultimately a let down 5y
LibrarianRyan @Johanna414 you should be getting it back any time. I sent it last week. 5y

This was really between a pick and a so-so for me. I liked it, but ultimately wanted more - more story, more background, more answers. I‘ll get it in the mail tomorrow!

This Neil Gaiman short story isn‘t his usual writing style, it‘s almost modeled after a Sherlock Holmes story, but I loved it! I think this was really fun, and it was cool to see something totally different from him. #authoramonth @Soubhiville

What a killer short story! I actually got so caught up in this graphic adaptation I completely forgot the twist at the end. Beautiful work from Rafael Albuquerque

I feel as though I've read this in short story format, but I don't know. Visually, pleasing and creepy. I love cthulu mythos and Sherlock and Gaiman, so this was just a perfect mix! (3 pts. 2 for theme, 1 for post)

My total for September 2019 was 25 books. The books pictured above were the adult/YA books I read. The others were all children‘s books. My favorite was Spellcasting in Silk.
7 books
1892 pages

Ddzmini How was the brain fog fix? 5y
jb72 @Ddzmini Actually I thought it had a lot of good information. He does talk a lot about organic foods, but also states you get what can. But he offers a lot of good points on ways to change your lifestyle to feel better now and in the future. 5y

My small, but quickly growing, graphic novel (& comic) collection. I blame Neil Gaiman & Sherlock Holmes. I happily ignored graphic novels until Gaiman published the tagged & of course, I had to have it because Sherlock PLUS Gaiman = awesomeness.

Several of these are on this weekend‘s TBR list. 😀

Cinfhen Wish I could get into this medium but I can‘t seem to emotionally connect 6y
Clwojick Ooooh! You‘ve got some good ones on here! 6y
TrishB @Cinfhen same and hubby has hundreds to try! 6y
Cinfhen Well at least they‘re waiting for you if the mood ever strikes @TrishB 😉 6y
wanderinglynn @Cinfhen @TrishB It was the same with me—like my struggles with audiobooks, I had to find the right ones to start with. Enter Gaiman. And then I had to find the rhythm of them. GNs never be my faves, but they‘re nice for quick reads. Plus some of the art is amazing. I probably spend more time studying the art than anything. 6y
