ellemnope 's review for:
A Study in Scarlet
by Arthur Conan Doyle
4.5 stars.
What a fun read! I love Holmes' witticism. Although admittedly it is a bit weird with it's divergent middle section diatribe on Mormonism, it's a very fast read with a lot of clever moments. I had heard about this strange middle section, but forgot about it when I went to read. I honestly thought I had mistakenly chosen an audiobook that had more than one story in it until I remembered about this little quirk.
The writing is great and laced with a bit of dry humor, which was completely entertaining. Holmes is absolutely the most wonderful detective, both in skill and in personality. I didn't realize that the story was told from the perspective of Watson, but I totally loved that approach. Consider me a fan. I'll 100% be continuing the series.
