Adventures of Sherlock Holmes | Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
13 posts | 25 read | 2 reading | 9 to read
Presenting 12 tales starring the legendary British detective Sherlock Holmes, this 1892 book is Arthur Conan Doyle's first short-story collection. The mystery compilation includes some of Holmes's finest cases with his dutiful sidekick, Doctor Watson, most notably "A Scandal in Bohemia," in which Holmes matches wits with the crafty former lover of a European king. Also featured is "The Adventure of the Red-Headed League," a study in misdirection that unfolds to become a much larger scheme. The stories, initially published in the Strand Magazine, are essential reading for Holmes fans.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed these stories. I held off for so long to read/listen to this book thinking I was not going to like it. I loved it! I was so sad to finish the book.

CrowCAH @Book_Fiend_Melissa it‘s okay. What about watching any movies or TV shows based off the characters? I think that counts! 5y
CrowCAH @mabell can‘t say I‘ve read that one. But they‘re all good picks! 5y
MsMelissa I‘ve watched the Robert Downey Jr movies, that‘s it. Mind you, my husband is a huge Sherlock fan, and the last time we were in London we visited 221b Baker St and did a Sherlock Holmes walking tour of London. That counts, right? 5y
CrowCAH @Book_Fiend_Melissa yup, that counts! 😊 5y

*glues this to the face of every adaptation producer who casts Irene Adler as a love interest*

My name is Sherlock Holmes. It is my business to know what other people do not know.

todd I just watched season one or two of the new BBC Sherlock series where Watson wrote a blog entitled something like "The Speckled Lady." The series has a lot of references to the original Conan stories but I couldn't figure it out. Mystery solved. 9y
