Jim's Review
🐛
The greatest Sherlock Holmes novel, and Jim will not hear arguments. The Dartmoor setting is magnificently eerie — you can practically feel the fog seeping through the pages. Doyle masterfully balances gothic horror with rational detective work, and the reveal of the hound is genuinely thrilling even 120-plus years later. Four worms — elementary, dear reader.
