If you saw what the title of this post was, you know what is on my mind right now. I have been a fan of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle for a very long time now, well relatively it is a long time. I have been a huge fanatic for about three years now and I finally invested in two complete volumes of Sherlock Holmes stories for my birthday. I had already read some of the stories before I bought these books, the reason for me being a fan, and I finally got a chance to read one of his novels. I probably should have started out with A Study in Scarlet, but I did not. I wanted to read The Hound of Baskervilles, so I did. It was very creepy and just to my liking. There was just enough of a fear factor to keep me reading. I would have read it anyway though, so that was fine.
On rainy days like today I would prefer curling up with a Sherlock Holmes book rather than going to school. I keep telling myself,"Just a few more hours, get your Lord of the Rings reading done, and then you can read Sherlock Holmes tonight after you get your LotR questions done." I need some not-so-complex British literature this evening. That would make my day just perfect.
Dear reader, I hope your day is better than mine.
have you ever read Jane Eyre? that's a good one for rainy days... :D
