One of the best books ever written has got to be this one. read it when I was fifteen years old. I slept little for two days in a row in order to finish this book. It was really exciting.

Sherlock Holmes is one man I wished to model my life after. I hope I enjoy this much as I like the character.

The consulting detective with his singularly brilliant mind, loyalty towards justice and friendship and beautiful eccentricity contained in such a respected and charismatic form of a human is unforgettable. My favorite one among the collection is The Dancing Men. There are more famous and renowned ones, but that particular story showed me that even the most complicated problems have a simplicity in being solved. This is one of my most favorite finds and I love the books

I binge read the books as a child, and may binge read them again at some point XD Such an absorbing world with fascinating characters and plots. I also binge watched the BBC Sherlock Holmes, which was equally as fantastic until season 3 which IMO sucked.

What I found about the Holmes stories is that I enjoyed the short stories featuring him more than the novels, whereas the opposite is true for Agatha Christie's Poirot. I liked it and it is good
