It is interesting extension to the Holmes and Watson world but I feel like it lacks some depth in terms of detail. The book was too short and the mystery did not realiy have much detail rather than odd deductions and logical jumps that is Holmes magic
My first ever classic
I feel it was a very odd choice for my first classic. many would have gone for a more obvious jane Austen or even Christmas carol from the same author. But nonetheless, I have enjoyed my journal immensely. While there were parts I felt that I was getting dragged along due to its descriptive nature that was needed for the serial fashion It was first published in there were parts that made me laugh so hard. For those who are scared of the classic fo attempt it with an audio book as you read it. i attempted it the same way and it allowed me to get over the different formating of words and sentences because the English back them is very different from the English we use to day
I really loved this book. I surprised myself in the aspect that I thought that this book was not going to do it for me because it was YA and I had not enjoyed that category of romance for a long time. however, the manner in which the book was written as well as the themes that were discussed. they all created a storyline that felt very real because of the three-dimensional depiction of the characters as well as the multiple links that left us clues along with the ways through the old movie references. if anyone who is a huge old film buff I would think this book would tickle their fancy with the movies mentioned as it would be relatable to what they love and enhoy
It was a different format from what I am use to with Poirot books. He was not there every step of the way Instead we where able to see the dynamics of the suspects in thier boarding House interesting enough but I can't say it was my favourite of this series
