The Hound of the Baskervilles

JJJJ

My View:   Kept me waiting until the end even though I spent a long time reading it. Holmes became more interesting (despite his absentness most of the novel) and Watson less so. The characters have never gone very deep and really need to be boosted (Robert Downey Jr. = Genius for pulling such depth out of Holmes). The end was a total shocker, but that just makes most of the book look pointless, unfortunately. Not one of Doyle's finest, but okay. Not re-read-worthy.
