“The game is afoot.”

What Sherlock Holmes book did you pick for this month? Why? (Photo)

 Mrs. Smith went to the police claiming that her vintage necklace was missing. When the police arrived, they saw no signs of a break-in. Only one window was broken. There was a total mess inside the house and dirty footprints all over the floor.  The next day, Mrs. Smith was arrested for fraud. Why?

When answering the mystery, please use the spoiler tag!!

My mum gifted me this box set many moons ago when I was Sherlock obsessed, long before he had such a huge resurgence in pop culture (Sherlock & Elementary both bringing different things to the table) - and I picked up little Sherlock with rope legs from a tourist shop on Baker Street...

Do you have any favourite travel souvenirs on your bookshelves?

Finally cleared a space for my only bookish birthday gift! And I‘m hoping that it‘ll inspire me to read through my TBR stack 🤪

I found this article interesting. I never realized the impact library fines could have on someone. I think it's really great libraries are doing what they can to benefit the community they're part of.
I also find it nuts they spent more money trying to collect fines than the fines were worth.

I found the audiobook for the complete Sherlock Holmes series on YouTube. I'm excited about the narrator most. It's narrated by none other than Stephen Fry. I know what I'm listening to today!

Of course, the detective himself.

My friend surprised me today with this lovely Sherlock Holmes coffee cup! It‘s the best when friends know exactly what you‘ll love. ❤️

This Sherlock Holmes one if probably my favorite!

Hey Littens!!! I have a reader in trouble! She's looking for books set in turn of the century London, preferably mysteries, that are similar to Christie & Doyle. Also, books in the Austen style but not too dramatic or sappy, something with a good story. Tag your friends & let's get my friend a good selection!! Thanks! 😘

I'm SHERLOCKED 🕵️

i‘ve read every book. i‘ve seen many adaptations. i love sherlock holmes and john watson. also they are gay and in love. i‘d be happy to talk to anybody who has questions about them. or questions about author conan doyle

Now that @TCLinrow has shared her box, I can share the bookmark I made! 😄
This was my first piece of cross stitch in a while and it has encouraged me to pick it back up again. I might even try to finish the back stitch on a massive king tut piece I was doing. #conandoyleswap #crossstitch

And as a book lover, a silent companion is great when you just want to read! 😂
@TCLinrow I have one thing left to finish and then your box will be on its way to you for the #conandoyleswap 😄 hoping to post it mid next week.

Some help for my #conandoyleswap partner 😄
I've read so little crime/thriller/mystery this swap is to help me broaden my horizons.
1. I do enjoy the Sherlock adaptations, both Cumberbatch and Johnny Lee Miller are awesome.
2. Both, but I am vegetarian so a lot of sweets are a no go.
3. I love bookmarks, totes, anything practical!
4. Either 😊
5. On the sofa, in my spot!
6. I love all the twists and turns in Robin Hobbs books.

What a lovely day!! It was so sunny and lovely out I walked to pick up my #feedareader package 📦 and it was so delightful I can‘t even express! @blithebuoyant , I loved the Texas theme - I was born in El Paso! You did so wonderfully with the foodie part of it, and I can‘t wait to make up a sheet cake. I teach 7/8th grade so I know just the crowd to feed...

Taking the lad to see Sherlock Gnomes today! That‘s a good intro to Sherlock for a 6 year old right 😂

I'm in! Fantastic #conandoyleswap being organised by @Beckykearns
I've hardly read any crime/thrillers/mysteries so this will be fun! 😊
#conandoyleexchange

Sixty hours worth of Stephen Fry reading Sherlock Holmes. He is so perfect I can‘t even. 💜 📚💙 📚💚 📚❤️ 📚🧡

I am very gradually working my way through this fantastic audio Sherlock Holmes collection, read by the inimitable Stephen Fry.

🍁Happy Fall🍁 Thrillers, crimes, and mysteries are great to read during this time of year, and Sherlock Holmes is always a good choice when it comes to that category 🔍 #crime #mystery #fallreads

Any litsy members in the Nyc area?

For those into anniversaries, this month marks the 125th anniversary of Conan Doyle's great detective.

This is the prettiest book I've ever owned. I'm so glad someone donated this to the library. Also, I love Sherlock Holmes. ❤️

Who is your favorite literary character? I'm partial to Sherlock Holmes

Hoping Sherlock Holmes would get me out of my reading slump. 😂 First time reading about Sherlock, and so far so good!!! This fuels my love for mysteries even more. 💖 Xoxo

This was my first Sherlock Holmes book and I thought it was pretty amazing! I also like this cool classy cover. ☺️ I'm also a big fan of the TV-show "Sherlock", mostly because of Benedict Cumberbatch. He will be my all-time celebritycrush? He's such a handsome man?? This pictured drawed a good friend of mine. :)

Jede hat ja seine Lieblinge, bei mir ist es definitiv Sherlock Holmes. 😍🕵💂

Everyone has his favourites. My favourite is definitely Sherlock Holmes. 😍🕵💂

"It was with a wound-it was worth many wounds-to know the depth of loyalty and love which lay behind that cold mask. The clear, hard eyes were dimmed for a moment, and the firm lips were shaking. For the one and only time I caught a glimpse of a great heart as well as of a great brain. All my years of humble but single-minded service culminated in that moment of revelation."
-Dr. Watson
