A review by dead_unicorn
The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle
3.0
My thoughts on each of the Case
The Adventure of the Mazarin Stone
This one was short and dumb like he literally sat in the room pretending to be his life like replica, it was stupid.
The Problem of Thor Bridge
That's messed up that Maria tried to frame this poor young governess, for her murder because her asshole husband had the hots for her. Also, how can a girl be so pretty that she can only have good intentions? Like she using Mr. Gibson's to manipulate for the good of the world, what?
The Adventure of the Creeping Man
This is the stupidest case so far!! It's like a 1800s viagra that made the guy like a rabid dog all so he could marry a younger woman, this is so stupid!!!!!
The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire
This one was interesting because it started out trying to make you believe that there was really a vampire and many of the other stories do that. But what a messed up kid, who would poison a baby?!?
The Adventure of the Three Garridebs
This one had a stupid premise, being that a man made up a stupid story of needed to find 3 men with the exact same name to inherit a fortune only to get into some old dudes apartment to get printing press to make counterfeit banknotes. Even though this was stupid this had a great moment between Sherlock and Watson that showed how much Sherlock truly cares for his partner
The Adventure of the Illustrious Client
This one was also stupid, a young and supposedly intelligent young woman falls in love with a horrible criminal and it is up Sherlock and Watson to save her from him. I found this one really distasteful because the crook was disfigured at the end and it implies that might have been apart of the young woman finally seeing the light.
The Adventure of the Three Gables
This was bittersweet, this poor woman lost her son because he was heartbroken and the woman who did try to buy all of her things and breaks into house to try and get back a manuscript the man wrote that shows her in a negative light, but at least Sherlock made that self-centered Isadora Klein pay for Mrs. Maberley to travel the world!!
The Adventure of the Blanched Soldier
This one was really interesting because it was the first case ever told from Sherlock's perspective. It was weird the still have the big reveal at the end even though we were in Sherlock's head, but it was a sweet story, to see how much Mr. Dodd cared about his friend.
The Adventure of the Lion's Mane
This one was also from Sherlock's perspective and apparently from after he retired. This was stupid, the killed was a jellyfish call the lion's mane a kind of jellyfish that isn't supposed to be in England.
The Adventure of the Retired Colourman
Back to Watson, this was about a man trying to cover up killing his wife and her lover. I didn't like that it was the theater ticket that was the clue that broke the case.
The Adventure of the Veiled Lodger
This one was sad, this poor woman mistreat by two men that she thought loved her, and even though her love was not brave enough to save her from the lion that mutilated her or love her after she was mutilated she won't give him up for the murder of her horrible husband, but at least it ended with her find a reason to live.
The Adventure of Shoscombe Old Place
This one was horrible!! This ass treats his sister like shit her whole life and when she dies from a lifelong illness she hides her body so he can use her money to pay off his debts and doesn't get punished for any of it!!!
