recommendation
I would recommend this reader to everyone because it is very interesting and you can read it very quickly. If you like crime stories and tangled scenes this reader is just for you. Also you can find a lot of lessons in the stories. I personally like books that are easy to read and when the action is intriguing which this reader apsolutely has
the action takes place
London, England
the type of the book
crime stories
what I didn't like
The stories could have been a little longer with more action.
what I liked
I like crime stories so it was interesting for me to read. Each of three stories is different and intriguing. Also every story is easy to understand.
The quotes I liked the most
"Can you give me an hour or two of your time, Mr Holmes?"
" I'm very busy. Perhaps police can help you."
"No, not the police. Only you can help."
"All right. What happened?"
I like this quotes because you can see how Sherlock is helpful and always finds time for everyone.
