I read these stories while waiting in queues and traveling. They're ideal for this, short moments where you just want some distraction and don't have time to get fully engaged in a deep story.

One Quick Story

I had assumed that this was either a novel or collection of Sherlock Holmes short stories, but instead I read one quick Sherlock Holmes short story. It was a classic Holmes story but I was hoping for more.

(7/10)- I enjoyed this. It wasn’t quite as good as some of the other collections, and I’m getting to know some of Sherlock’s tricks so I predicted some of the solutions, but overall it was good. At least there were no long descriptions and explanations.
