leah8057 's review for:
The Return of Sherlock Holmes (Sherlock Holmes, #6)
by Arthur Conan Doyle
Not as good as the other Sherlock books, in my opinion. Things are starting to get repetitive. The mysteries are always about a stolen document, or a foreigner who moves to escape his past and it inevitably catches up to him, or something along those lines. The love stories are cringe worthy, since they are usually about a damsel in distress who can't do anything except cry or faint. I'm also getting pretty annoyed that: a) every single woman character is either described as the most beautiful woman in all of London, or incredibly ugly (gee Doyle, there are such things as average women); b)the police are INCREDIBLY stupid in every story; and mostly c) NO ONE IS EVER HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS!! This one pisses me off the most. Oh, you just killed two people? Well, you meant well, so I won't tell anyone. What ever happened to justice?
Okay, with all that being said, I still liked the book. Short little mysteries that keep me engaged even if they are getting slightly annoying.
