connortravels 's review for:

The Hound of the Baskervilles by Arthur Conan Doyle
4.5
adventurous mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

The third book club book for 2025, this is my first experience with Sherlock Holmes (not including the Enola Holmes films). I now see why people love Sherlock. The writing has you picturing the most vivid muddy alley ways, truly feeling the tension, and being genuinely shocked at twists. 

The Hound of the Baskervilles is possibly one of my favourite books yet, though nothing it does is ground-breaking, it is an impossible to put down book.
