I read the first story years ago, liked it, but then never continued. So I want to restart this properly at some point in the future
mysterious

Actually from the Delphi Classics Complete Arthur Conan Doyle. About the 5th time I’ve been through the Holmes opus. Last time was over 20 years ago.
Always fun.

I finished all of the Sherlock Holmes’ cases and I don’t know why I feel like crying, I’m so happy to have read them and if it weren’t for BBC’s Sherlock I might never have done it. I really liked it.

My favorites cases:

  • Study in Scarlet.

  • The Speckled Band

  • The Noble Bachelor

  • The Beryl Coronet

  • The Copper Beeches

  • The Musgrave Ritual

  • The Final Problem

  • The Empty House

  • The Dancing Men

  • Charles Augustus Milverton

  • The Six Napoleons

  • The Hounds of the Baskervilles

  • The Bruce-Partington Plans

  • The Dying Detective

  • The Devil’s Foot

  • His Last Bow

  • The Mazarin Stone

  • The Three Garridebs

  • The Lion’s Mane

  • The Veiled Lodger
