Definitely try some of the other collections when you get a chance.<br /><br />Sorry I'm so late commenting on this one ...

Now it sits on my tbr pile, waiting for me to have time to read it.Katyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14176612881975170987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144784325334181261.post-76950317311532260262011-03-30T11:31:42.682-05:002011-03-30T11:31:42.682-05:00Love Holmes!

I am a bit ashamed to say I've tried to watch the Robert Downey Jr. film version and fell asleep both times. I saw enough of it to mostly enjoy it, but it didn't keep me awake for some reason! Glad you enjoyed your find!Jill Buckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18296890779922143900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144784325334181261.post-30859527894841515292011-03-29T14:55:38.797-05:002011-03-29T14:55:38.797-05:00I am a Sherlock Holmes fiend, Ryan.

And I have HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES being mailed directly to me as we speak. Just felt like watching it again. The one with Basil Rathbone.

I know that he's never actually read the stories, and he was driving me crazy with his based on the movie comments.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144784325334181261.post-25785683589289293062011-03-29T07:20:23.558-05:002011-03-29T07:20:23.558-05:00When we went to see the Sherlock Holmes movie, my ...When we went to see the Sherlock Holmes movie, my mother was shocked that I've never read any of the books since she loved them as a child. I've been curious about them ever since then. This sounds like a good book to start with.bermudaonionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726401178972099557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144784325334181261.post-85009958417404847762011-03-29T00:50:26.348-05:002011-03-29T00:50:26.348-05:00I also have this book which I bought at a library ...I also have this book which I bought at a library sale. I haven't read it yet, but I will....<br /><br />I love Sherlock. I watch every movie/TV show that I can. I loved the newest Sherlock movie with Robert Downey Jr. I'm particularly fond of the BBC series that starred Jeremy Brett as Sherlock and there was a 2002 remake of The Hound of the Baskervilles (my favorite Sherlock story), which starred Richard Roxburgh as Sherlock, that I liked really well. Ian Hart played Watson in this version and I liked his protrayal.<br /><br />Great review and thanks for reminding me. I think ole Sherlock just inched a little closer to the top of my TBR pile. =O)Michelle Stockard Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03572227726980569386noreply@blogger.com
