Now, I am hopeful that his later works are closer to the Memoirs than the Adventures and I will really enjoy them too.

Another excellent selection. I didn't like it quite as much as the Memoirs, but that may have been because it was a re-read. It feels like time for a break from Sherlock Holmes though, so I need to find something else.
I just finished The Moor (Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes #4) by Laurie King which is based on The Hound of the Baskervilles. I really should have read The Hound first as there is a spoiler for it in The Moor. Also, I want to visit Devonshire and try scones with clotted cream and wortleberry jam.
