Sherlock Holmes is a classic for a reason, and it all started here!

I adore every adaptation of Sherlock I've come across but this is my first experience with the novels. 

I wad shocked and a bit confused for a moment with the detour in the middle of the book - if you've read it you know! - however, I got used to it and felt it added to the story in the end!

I found this a very enjoyable read. It's interesting to see the origins of one of my favourite fictional characters. The epitome of a detective if you ask me! 

A fun, quick introduction to the genius of Sherlock Holmes and trusty Dr. Watson. I love their dynamic and I'll definitely read on!
