This was such a treat. A collection of 12 stories where most of them had me guessing until the very end, one I guessed early and one I guessed right before the solution was revealed.

I‘m ready for the next volume.

I read this collection a number of years ago and enjoyed the reread. There was one or two so-so stories in the collection, but the majority of the stories have a fun adventure. Holmes is Holmes, of course…he‘s never going to win the most humble person award!

Even though Doyle wrote two novels before these twelve stories, for me, it all begins with this book and the first short story “A Scandal in Bohemia.“ If you're new to the world of Holmes and Watson, this is the book to start with. Twelve masterful short stories that have most of the best of the Holmes canon. I don't know how many times I've read these, but I keep rereading and will keep rereading for as long as I can. I am truly #sherlocked.

Bookwomble @dabbe At some point this year I want to read at least a few of my Homes pastiches, starting with the tagged, as it's co-written by Doyle Junior. Have you read it? 6mo

dabbe @Bookwomble No, I haven't! It's now on my TBR! I definitely want to read more pastiches once I reread the canon. 6mo
Bookwomble @dabbe The Exploits records the cases Dr Watson only alluded to, such as the Giant Rat of Sumatra, so it sounds fun just from that angle 🙂 6mo
dabbe @Bookwomble Now, that does sound like fun! I sometimes thought the titles that were only alluded to sounded better than the story Watson was actually writing! 😂 6mo
Bookwomble @dabbe Yes! If we only knew what else Watson had secreted in that bank security box! 6mo
dabbe @Bookwomble Exactly! 6mo

You may have a slight book addiction if you‘re checking which ebooks are on sale while you stand on line at Barnes and Noble to pay for the armload of books you‘re impulse purchasing. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Hi, Sherlockians~
Based on @Cuilin's survey, most of you wanted to read a short story a week. These next 12 stories are bound in the tagged book, or you can read them separately--however you wish! Below is our reading schedule. A 2-week slot exists due to Mother's Day. Click below for a link to create your own copy of the pic above: https://bit.ly/3SVQNuh

dabbe @Liz_M Thank you! ❤️💜🩷 9mo
SpellboundReader @dabbe - If it's okay, I'll join in and try to keep up with the schedule. I've read some stories by Sir Doyle in the past, in no particular order but don't remember them well. Last night I watched Mr. Holmes, a fanfiction movie based on Mitch Cullin's 2005 novel A Slight Trick of the Mind. Loved the movie. Saw this post this morning. 🙂 9mo
