I liked the story.  And it was very well written.  The characters were written with great care.  They had a slight but visible development, and it fit.  It was nice and at the same time interesting to see the beginning of the collaboration between Holmes and Dr.  Watson.

3.0

 After the middle bit I was not interested in the story at all and I really didn't wanted to continue but I kept going since it's such a short book. I'm glad that I continued since after that backstory bit it picked up the pace which made the story a lot better in the end. So even though some parts were really boring I liked the story in the end but not as much as other murder mystery books.
