This is somewhat unfair because I read the complete collection of Sherlock Holmes as an early teen and to date it remains my favourite book that I’ve ever read. Specifically, The Hound of the Baskervilles is my all-time favorite. That being said, I had forgotten how most of the stories went, and it was a refreshing re-visitation of a timeless classic. The only reason this collection is not ranked #1 is that this was a re-read.
