Someone comes to Baker Street with a problem, They tell their story to Holmes and Watson. Sherlock has a think and goes away to find out more. Watson goes to find him. They figure it out. Everyone lives happily ever after. Rinse and repeat 22 times.

I didn't expect this book to be filled with short stories but I can't think of a better introduction to Sherlock Holmes.

Short, quick reads for reminding yourself how dumb you are (at least compared to Holmes).

this was the perfect book for me to get back into reading! i love the bbc tv series, and the structure of it being a collection of shorter stories rather than one big one meant it was easy to pick up and read a whole story when i had the time.

Sherlock Holmes is probably one of my favorite characters, and all of these stories were absolutely fantastic
