A Study in Scarlet -  Arthur Conan Doyle It's Sherlock, what more is there to say! I didn't use to consider myself a Holmes fan. I've seen the diabolic film with Robert Downey Junior and some of the much better but ridiculously minuscule television series with Benedict Cumberbatch and thought it was okay, but not amazing. Now this is my third Sherlock book, but of course the first one written, which introduces us to Holmes and Watson. It isn't my favourite - Hound of the Baskervilles wins that honour so far - but I really liked finding out how Holmes and Watson met and teamed up to work together. The murder mystery in the book is pretty interesting too, although I definitely enjoyed the second half of the story more than the first.So all in all, I think I'm becoming a bigger Sherlock Holmes fan with each book I read. The Sign of Four is next for me!
