Ok so recently I'm going through a huge Sherlock phase and bought some books.
The first I'm reading is A Study In Scarlet.
It's fabulous ngl, I recommend to those who like adventure/mystery or maybe just like Sherlock Holmes.

Another is that I've finally read the 2nd Skulduggery Pleasant book. :D
Skulduggery Pleasant is a fantastic series that I began reading whilst on holiday in Tenerife.

Any other Skulduggery or classic Sherlock fans?

Yay another Sherlock fan

My favourite book (chapter) is The Red Headed League
Favourite episode from Moffat's version is probably A Scandal in Belgravia

I'm right in the middle of reading of the Sherlock Holmes books, but I've read them all over the place so not in order.
So far I'd say The Red-Headed League is my favourite too, or The Adventure of the Empty House.

And then I love the TV shows ;P Sherlock and Elementary

Skulduggery Pleasant used to be a huge thing at my school, loads of people were reading it although I didn't

I've read Skulduggery Pleasant number 1, and I haven't read any Sherlock books yet.
I'll watch Sherlock though.

Oh, yeah, sure, you love Sherlock but you don't love me anymore...

Well I readed all the books and I agree with you all, The Red Headed league was one of my favourites... amazingly thought, written and don't forget the legacy! That story has inspired a lot of bank robbery movies. I also found The Baskerville's Hound novel an amazing piece of literature and I loved it, to the point of reading it over and over again.

I even readed Adrian Conan Doyle's stories (conan's son) and they are ok so, give them a chance.
Conan doyle has a lot of stories that aren't just about Sherlock :P

I watch series like Columbo, Detective Conan, Elementary, Castle, Sherlock, Criminal Minds and saw some Sherlock vintage movies.

Watch out or Sebastian Moran is gonna kill you :O

I want you to give a chance to these stories:
- The dancing men
- The blue carbuncle
- The six napoleons
I literally marked out while reading those, such amazing short stories.
