72 hours of Sherlock Holmes - done! It’s taken me all year to listen to this collection of stories about the great detective. I was determined to finish it before the new year. I didn’t want those stats going on 2024 when the majority of it had been listened to in 2023. Every year I try and read/ listen to one of the classics. This year I decided it would be the Sherlock Holmes collection. I don’t think I would have picked this up if it was in book format. The fact it was an audiobook and that it was read by Stephen Fry (who is awesome) made it more palatable. Stephen Fry’s accents and voices were really good and helped to portray the stories. I really enjoyed listening to this audiobook.
