Screaming Staircase was the first one, if you read it a couple of years back, thats most likely the one you're thinking of.
Yeah, the narration makes a lot of how suave and charming he is. But then, the books are written from the pov of a teenage girl who goes on about how good looking he is, so maybe its a case of narrator bias? I do enjoy the stories but tbh at times he comes off as insincere and douchey to me, so its a bit jarring when Lucy is all, OMG AND THEN LOCKWOOD WAS BEING PRETTY AND TALL, and im like, "...but still a dick, though?"
Honestly, yeah, at this point Benbatch's Sherlock looks like an ideal dinner date compared to Lockwood!
