The Writer's LibrarySo according to goodreads.com it’s “Mystery and Thriller Week.” I’ll be honest, thrillers have never really been my cup of tea personally, but I do love a good mystery. As the loyal followers of my blog probably know by now, Sherlock Holmes is one of my favorite literary characters of all time. There is something […]
So I know I haven’t posted in a while. College is kicking my butt. Anyway, I’m rereading The House of Silk by Anthony Horowitz (#2 on Project: Sherlock rankings) and I’m remembering why it was so high on the list and one of my favorite books. The funny thing is, it was all set to win until a last-minute […]
Wow…. wow. Before I get too carried away, the drill is the same: this review will contain spoilers for the season 4 finale of Sherlock. Spoilers below!Jeez. I didn’t realize that Sherlock’s secret sister could be so psychotic, so evil, so scary. Let’s start from the beginning again.Mycroft is watching a tape in this old building […]
I figured I’d review the latest Sherlock episode The Lying Detective. Because why not? I reviewed the first episode and I feel like I have a lot to say about this more recent one. And that’s a good thing.As usual, spoilers from here on in!Okay. This may have just replaced The Great Game as my […]
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan DoyleMy rating: 3 of 5 stars Oh, if only I had been able to fly through this one in time to finish off the 2016 reading challenge…. You just can’t win them all, can you?I hate to say this, but I really prefer Arthur Conan Doyle novels […]

Well, here it is. To think, I started this venture just about eight months ago and here I am officially wrapping it up. I have put together a video that ranks the pastiches from #15 to #1, with #15 being the worst and #1 the best. I already said this in the video description, but […]
I Will Find the Answer by Kate WorkmanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars It feels weird not putting this book under Project: Sherlock. This may take some getting used to. So, to start off, I have to be honest. It’s not as good as Populaire was, and I honestly didn’t expect it to be. That’s […]
Sherlock Holmes: The Army of Dr. Moreau by Guy AdamsMy rating: 2 of 5 stars Sigh. Not a good book to end Project Sherlock on. You just can’t win them all. I half-expected this book to disappoint me. Over the course of this endeavor, I’ve come across books that really just flew off the edge […]
Sherlock Holmes is one of the greatest literary characters of all time.
