I love Sherlock Holmes and Watson. I think they are really interesting characters and compelling to read. The idiosyncratic nature of Holmes is balanced by the more level headed Watson and I find that brings a good partnership to the book. However, I would have liked to have got to know these characters in more depth. I was very confused by the transition to part 2 of the book, which made sense by the end but was very dry and boring initially. I love the history behind these books and the writing but wasn’t a major fan of the latter half of this book.
