The Return of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

This was an enjoyable read.

There isn't really much else to say about it. The stories are episodic, the information Doyle gives are only relevant to help elucidate the unraveling of the case and there are interesting moments of class-play (like status, wealth and a lower-upper class dialectic) but in the end, I felt the book was just a light, simple read.

I read some of Doyle's other works and enjoyed them. Good for other people to read. Understandable as to why it's a classic.
