Dates Read: March to May 2013
Bobby and I have been gotten hooked on BBC's "Sherlock" series and CBS's "Elementary" series so I decided to stick with the Sherlock Holmes theme and read the stories. I finished Volume I (of II) this month. It was absolutely wonderful! The short stories are the perfect length and are absolute page turners. The longer stories are also page turners and the chapters are the perfect length, too. Even after reading 700 pages about Sherlock and Watson, I find that I still want to read more (yay for Volume II) and am not at all sick of reading about their adventures.
Summary: (from barnesandnoble.com)
The Complete Sherlock Holmes comprises four novels and fifty-six short stories revolving around the world’s most popular and influential fictional detective—the eccentric, arrogant, and ingenious Sherlock Holmes. He and his trusted friend, Dr. Watson, step from Holmes’s comfortable quarters at 221b Baker Street into the swirling fog of Victorian London to exercise that unique combination of detailed observation, vast knowledge, and brilliant deduction. Inevitably, Holmes rescues the innocent, confounds the guilty, and solves the most perplexing puzzles known to literature.
