what do you think about the first adventure? I was really surprised that watson wasnt scared of getting arrested

I thougth the second was rather funny and the third maybe a bit predictable... I'm now starting with #4... I have a version from www.storycartel.com. It was the group-read from the storycartel bookgroup from june - but I didn't get around to reading it... If you are interested, you can look at the blog:

These articles are also part of my version of the ebook. Between every chapter there is some thing from the discussion (but I could only find these 4 online).
I rather like those intervals between the adventures.

In one story tough (I believe it was the 3rd, about the orange pips) I thought he made a very bad mistake, by letting the client leave without a guard.
But I have to say I get nervous more often with Sherlock Holmes - he takes his time to investigate, while I worry that some dreadful thing might happen in the meantime... (which is mostly not the case, except in the above mentioned story...).
Good choice this read!
Happy reading everyone!

I believe too that the cases are quite short since i expected them to be longer.. i just finished the fourth adventure and i really liked the second one

Happy reading, everyone!
