Sherlock Holmes, although brilliant and calculating, is kind of a huge narcissist. It's hard to care or like him as a character. The stories are still entertaining, though.

Doyle hits his stride in this collection! Short stories are truly his forte, and most of these strike the fine balance between enough details to flesh out the mystery (and confuse the reader as to how it will resolve!), but not so much exposition it grows tedious or obvious in the conclusion. Great suspense! My favorite was The Speckled Band.
This was fun! I liked how each chapter was its own little thing. And some of these cases were like "well, here's a weird situation. isn't that strange?" and that's it story over lol. Felt a lot like the twilight zone "imagine how weird it is to send 5 orange pips anywhere?"
Also I love how Watson has been consistently chronicling his best bud for years at this point and yet whenever Sherlock reads him to filth Watson goes surprised Pikachu at how accurate it is. um, Watson, you do know the premise of the stories you write??? Hun never change.
I also think it's so funny how Sherlock seems to always want him on cases even though he doesn't offer much in the way of deduction. I think he likes Watson in general and appreciates how grounded he is. Get you a friend that likes you like Sherlock likes Watson.
