“The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes” By Arthur Conan Doyle Review

Posted in Book reviewTagged , , Leave a comment

In The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes, the consulting detective’s notoriety as the arch-despoiler of the schemes concocted by the criminal underworld at last gets the better of him. Though Holmes and his faithful sidekick Dr Watson solve what will become some of their most bizarre and extraordinary cases – the disappearance of the race horse Silver Blaze, the horrific circumstances of the Greek Interpreter and the curious mystery of the Musgrave Ritual among them – a criminal mastermind is plotting the downfall of the great detective.

The plot in this one is very near to being a masterpiece. Its so interesting and engaging. Which makes it super hard to stop reading it. 

A part of me wish that this one never ended because I completely loved it. This one really shows why Sherlock Holmes and sir Arthur Conan Doyle deserve their spot in hall of fame of literature. 

The characters here are okay but when it comes to Sherlock Holmes and doctor Watson they are an amazing due and I loved they both because they have something in them which makes us relate to them.

The writing style here was amazing and really shows how good author sir Arthur Conan Doyle was. 

I Give This Book 4 / 5

“The Two Towers” By J.R.R. Tolkien Review

Posted in Book reviewTagged , , , Leave a comment

The company of the Ring is torn asunder. Frodo and Sam continue their journey alone down the great River Anduin – alone, that is, save for the mysterious creeping figure that follows wherever they go.

This second book in the Lord Of The Rings is even better than the first book, it really surprised me in a very good way, The plot keeps getting better and better in a way in this fucking series which I’m a huge fan of. 

The plot in this book, there is so much happening in it and there is so much action in it which makes hard in a way to put words to it. The plot in this book is so amazing that I don’t have words to describe it. Of course some of it might be outdated when you look at when this book was first released but still its a pure masterpiece. 

The writing style here is of course very old and it has so much old English in it but still it sort of sett more mood into the entire story which really speak for itself. But also the writing style was so fucking good that it sucked me into the story and I just couldn’t stop reading it.

Helm’s Deep was so fucking good but so god damn short. Why? Really I wouldn’t mind spending at least 20 minutes reading about the Helm’s Deep. But Helm’s Deep isn’t the only epic adventure in this book nor this series which makes this book and the entire series so good. 

The character in this book are so well done and they feel like they are real and not just fictional characters. And the development which happens with all of the characters is so great in this series. It feels like every character in this series has an important role to play which I also love.

The original tale is much better but also darker then the version kids see. 

It is different but not that different from what you might remember from first hearing this tale as a kid. 

The plot here are very good but also dark which is the mix which I personally like a lot.

The writing style here was very old and you could feel the vibe of old the Europe which was amazing for me.

“The Fellowship of the Ring” By J.R.R. Tolkien Review

Posted in Book reviewTagged , , Leave a comment

Sauron, the Dark Lord, has gathered to him all the Rings of Power – the means by which he intends to rule Middle-earth. All he lacks in his plans for dominion is the One Ring – the ring that rules them all – which has fallen into the hands of the hobbit, Bilbo Baggins. In a sleepy village in the Shire, young Frodo Baggins finds himself faced with an immense task, as his elderly cousin Bilbo entrusts the Ring to his care. Frodo must leave his home and make a perilous journey across Middle-earth to the Cracks of Doom, there to destroy the Ring and foil the Dark Lord in his evil purpose.

I needed to be honest here and admit that I never watched the Lord of the rings movies. I’ve tried couple of times to watch the first movie but I shouldn’t couldn’t finish it in the end. This fact made me super sceptical to this book and this series because I was expecting that it would happen the same thing as with the movies but to my surprise it didn’t. 

The writing is quite outdated I needed to admit. The old English in this book is so thick and it kept distracting me while I was reading book. But of course this is the thing which happens over time so I can’t trash this book over this.

The plot itself here was good but it really didn’t drag me into it, of course I’ve enjoyed it a good deal but while reading this entire book I felt that something was missing from the plot. 

The thing which annoyed me the most with this book was the songs and poems if you will in every chapter which really made me want to burn this book in the fireplace. These songs and poems were really annoying and distracting for me 

Most of the characters in this book were interesting and super enjoyable but there were some characters which annoyed me. But I’ve liked the main characters in this book.

I personally felt like there should be more action here. The action in the form of a battle with the Orcs and I really wished to see more of them in this book and not just couple of lines about them here and there.

I give this book 4 / 5
