This time through it clearly confirmed my love of Sherlock Holmes, despite the passing decades. Though I still didn't love the back story section, it was a lot easier to engage in as an adult, if only because I was mentally prepared for it this time.
Possibly not the best book to start with if you've never read Sherlock Holmes before, but very enjoyable for all the classic mystery and (now stereotypical) clever deduction moments.
