Thanks to the Audrey app and winning another one of their StoryGraph giveaways, I got to finally read a Sherlock Holmes story! I enjoyed it so much more than I thought I would and it was a bit fast when Sherlock explains things but I also listen at 1.5 speed, so I will have to go through the notes from the guide which help a lot. Same guide as The Picture Of Dorian Gray which I would not have fully understood without their guidance.

This was an assigned reading, but I enjoyed it all the same. I didn't see most of the twists and reveals coming, despite the characters being ubiquitous! I can see why the plots, characters, and themes have had such strong staying power over the last 100+ years. Other than letting a potential reade know about some heavy-handed chunks of exposition that bogged me down, I’d highly recommended it.
