A Study In Sherlock

     After finishing the remnants of The Beginning of Everything, I plan to read A Study in Sherlock. A Study of Sherlock is a collection of reinterpretations of the original books by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I loved reading the originals, the bright brilliance of Holmes' character bleeding into the plot and experiences. The fantastical and impressive reasoning behind all of the mysteries. Even with it set in the past, I always found myself lured to finish book after book, enjoying the new mysteries alive on the pages in my hands.
     I was first introduced to the characters in winter of last year, a close friend bought them for me. Now, with the friend disappeared to pursue their own education I come back and reread the books as a memory of the past, both Sherlock's and my own. They bring a sense of nostalgia I enjoy.
     I look forward to starting this new book, reading other people's ideas on what happened to the detective in the streets of London, them taking a crack at the peculiar dynamic between Sherlock and John. I feel like it will give me a wide variety, I can chose which stories I enjoy. From modern day times to the past, from London and other cities, I can follow my favorite detective wherever the author leads him. I am intrigued at the idea of every writer molding my view of the character, shaping his reputation in my mind. I need a redeeming accurate viewing after watching the distant and brilliant character played by Cumberbatch in BBC's Sherlock, who defines himself as a "Highly functioning sociopath." I can't wait to start A Study In Sherlock and figure out what adventures wait for the classic detective.
