Agnes Grey 2 Read this several years ago and wasn't much impressed. I thought the heroine wasn't much to write home about and the young man she falls in love with was a simp. Read as a historical curiosity. 07/03/2010
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes 5 Best collection of mystery short stories ever written. 07/03/2010
The Adventures of Joel Pepper 1 One of the less-nauseating sequels to Five Little Peppers. Joel is the least well-behaved of the Pepper children, which makes him more human. 07/03/2010
The Adventure of the Dying Detective 3 One of my favorite Holmes stories, probably because Watson is an active character. Holmes is ill and he refuses to allow Watson to treat him. 07/03/2010
