I enjoyed this more than the previous Sherlock Holmes book. I think I preferred the way this was many different shorter mysteries - that made it easier to dip into.

I mean, what can I say? It's Sherlock Holmes, you kind of know what you're getting out of these books. I did enjoy the short form stories. Some were better than others, but I like that I didn't have to wade through a bunch of details to get to the meat of the mystery.
