The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes

To be honest I did myself a disservice because this book is the third installment into Sherlock Holmes and I chose to listen to it anyway. Most of these stories lack in the same way the Poirot shorts do—their lack of description and exposition. Having known so little about the literature Holmes it definitely took my enjoyment down a notch.

4: A Scandal In Bohemia 3: The Redheaded League

3: A Case of Identity 3: The Boscombe Valley Mystery

3: The Five Orange Pips3: The Man with the Twisted Lip

4: The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle 4: The Adventure of the Speckled Band

3: The Adventure of the Engineer's Thumb3: The Adventure of the Noble Bachelor

3: The Adventure of the Beryl Coronet 5: The Adventure of the Copper Beeches: this one was so close to being scary/horror I wish it had gone even more so into it

I felt this book was not as great as the previous two entries. As with every collection of stories, some were very interesting and solid Sherlock stories, but others seemed a little lower in quality and even repetitive. Still, the highs in this book were very high and it goes to show how good this series is.

My favorite stories from this book were:

• A scandal in Bohemia
• The red headed league
• The five orange pips
• The man with the twisted lip
• The adventure of the noble bachelor
