One of the books I read during the first semester I read "Classic Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Now if you are unfamiliar with the name Sherlock Holmes, he is a fictional character created by this same author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and he is known as the "world's greatest detective." Even though the setting is in the UK, there still is no other detective as good as Sherlock Holmes. There are even movies about Sherlock Holmes starring Robert Downey Jr. which just goes to show how popular this got at the time of Doyle's creation. Sherlock Holmes is very well known for his proficiency with observation, deduction, and forensic science. He is partnered alongside his faithful companion Dr. John Watson who is also his best friend in the story. This story describes his greatest adventures to solving many crimes and how he managed to determine who the killer was to each crime.
Even though I am not so into Forensics, I have to admit this was a very good book to read and it made me really become more interested in the subject. Even though learning that Sherlock Holmes is a very strange person when he is not solving any crimes, he is a truly extraordinary man with remarkable abilities. I highly recommend this book if you are into Forensics and if you are a fan of mystery as well. For there were many questions asked in this story during every crime and like always after solving each one, all questions were answered in the end.
