Review: The Hound of the Baskervilles

The Hound of the Baskervilles by Arthur Conan Doyle
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Anyone wanting to get into reading classic books the Sherlock Holmes books are such a great place to start. Unlike a lot of classics, the books are so easy to read and understand in 2018 even though they were written over 100 + years ago.

I don’t think there has ever been a more interesting character than Sherlock Holmes in any book ever written. There has been so many TV shows and movies about him purely for the fact that he is so fascinating a character.

The dialogue is always sharp and witty and the relationship between Sherlock and Watson still to this day makes them probably one of the greatest duos ever written.

This story had everything from devil dogs, murder, a haunted old house and a mystery. The mystery is classic and compelling from beginning to end. That being said it’s not my favorite of the Sherlock Holmes stories but it’s brilliant all the same.

A must read for basically everyone.
