Think “Scooby Doo” meets “The Talented Mr Ripley” but not as iconic as either.
Important for general knowledge. Its a classic but Im really happy to read something lighter now.

I’ve been watching Sherlock Holmes in different ways for years. From Basil Rathbone to Benedict Cumberbatch, I’ve seen plenty of versions. But I’ve never read a Conan Doyle, which I decided to change by reading one of my favourite stories. I loved the book! Holmes is written so well, and Watson is a worthy companion and friend to Holmes, I can’t wait to read more!

The third book club book for 2025, this is my first experience with Sherlock Holmes (not including the Enola Holmes films). I now see why people love Sherlock. The writing has you picturing the most vivid muddy alley ways, truly feeling the tension, and being genuinely shocked at twists.
The Hound of the Baskervilles is possibly one of my favourite books yet, though nothing it does is ground-breaking, it is an impossible to put down book.
