Behind on reading challenge?

SOLUTION: read a Sherlock Holmes short story. *thumbs up*

I'm totally obsessed with Doyle's writing style. It's very rich and flows SO WELL. The mystery element of this wasn't super impressive, but the writing and setting and characters were lovely. This is a story I can foresee myself wanting to read again, probably at Christmastime because of the setting. <3

(Oh, and can we talk about how soft-hearted Sherlock was in this one?? MY HEART.)

4 stars!

“My name is Sherlock Holmes. It is my business to know what other people don't know.” I actually really enjoyed this one, it was cleverly constructed and the mystery was slowly revealed instead of an information dumb and then miraculous solving. For sure one of my favourites so far!
