Last week I took some much needed vacation. During that time I happened to pick up a book to read, something I haven't done in a long time (as sad as that is to say). My book of choice was Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Novels and Stories Vol. 1, which I received years and years ago from a family friend. I have never successfully read through all of the stories, though I have finished the odd one or two. My goal this time around is to complete the entire book. So far I have read through the two novel-length stories in the book: A Study in Scarlet and The Sign of Four. Both are gripping reads, and I found that I could hardly put the book down once I started reading. I'm very excited about the rest of the short stories. And then it's on to volume two!

What is everyone else here reading? Or are you even reading at all? It's certainly such a 20th century thing to do... ;-)
