Hopefully, I'll get through these four. 🤩

tpixie Is #readyourkindle just documenting when you read with your kindle? 😀 Or is there more to it? 7h
dabbe @tpixie It can be your Kindle/E-reader or physical. C'mon and join us! 🤩🤗🤩 7h
tpixie @dabbe I just may! I‘ve more tempted to pay attention to which and how many books I listen to, use my Kindle, versus a book, but I‘m not very organized so I haven‘t figured out a great way to do so. And I‘m kinda lazy… 😂 I pretend because I‘m busy enough without a new task!! 🤣 7h

Mehso-so

This is the 1st Sherlock I‘ve read, but I‘ve read/watched many spin-offs which I love. I didn‘t realize that it would be a collection of short stories. Most spin-offs are of 1 case with a strong B-storyline. The mysteries were excellent but it was missing that B-storyline that pulls me through the narrative. I think if there was more character development with Watson then it wouldn‘t have taken so long to read it. I felt no urgency to pick it up.

I particularly enjoyed this longer Holmes story. The historical aspect of the operation of the freemen‘s lodge and the Pinkertons was fascinating.

This collection contains more stories about Moriarty, including how Holmes managed to survive their clifftop fall. My favourite is the Six Napoleons, which was quite faithfully recreated for the Sherlock series.

Librarybelle This shows that even Holmes can be led astray (Armstrong and his tactics). It also shows a tad bit of vulnerability with Holmes—Watson‘s concern that Holmes will seek opium again. 2w
dabbe @Librarybelle Also, Holmes shows quite a bit more emotion and empathy with Staunton as he kneels over his wife--even the picture shows that. Our mathematical-solving machine has quite a bit of heart, and it keeps growing over these stories. 2w
Cuilin The impulse to put the doctor at ease in the cottage and communicate his understanding is demonstrating a softer side to Sherlock than we‘ve seen before. 2w
