Re: My first Sherlock Holmes readthrough

I always am totally distracted by first person stories that are stated to be written accounts by figuring out how this character was feeling when s/he was writing the story in addition to when s/he was actually doing the actions in the story, so stuff like that always pops out at me ;)

I also find it kind of sad that he died so soon after writing the last stories, and it's clear he didn't care about Holmes at all at that point :( That's also when he started in with some little Rathbone-Bruce-esque little exchanges of nastiness/stupidity here and there, which make it hard to reconcile with The Game (I just say "okay, even though ACD was intending Holmes to be mean here, I'm gonna assume Watson was just repeating Holmes's light-hearted teasing and didn't realize how it came off).

Well, at least to my knowledge he never despised Holmes as personally as Agatha Christie despised Hercule Poirot. Although you're probably more of an expert on that than me ;)
