Book report – The hound of the baskervilles

The main character: Sherlock holmes

Sherlock Holmes is a detective who solve mystery with his best friend: Dr. Weston. We don’t know how Sherlock Holmes looks like, we know that he is a very clever, full of wisdom and a great detective. In our story, we are witness his brilliant cracking the curse by drawing conclusions.                                                         

Secondary character: Sir Henry

Henry is about thirty years old, a small dark eyed man with a strong face and thick, black eyebrows. After he returns home, he meets a lady called Miss Stapleton. Although Henry is a curious man, he is also very naive. He is total unaware of the danger and the mysterious events that is all around him. Only by dumb luck his life was saved.

My least favorite character:

My least favorite character is Jack Stapleton. We first meet him when Watson walked around the neighborhood. Jack describes as a small, thin man in his thirties with blond hair. Watson thought that Jack is overfriendly and a bit curious towards newly arrived.  On the surface Jack appears innocent and helpful but we uncovered that he isn’t what he seemed to be.

Recommendation:

I recommend this book for kids who love adventure, thriller, or spy books. In my opinion, it’s a very good, interesting and mysterious book, because it’s an adventure book with a mystery that needs to be solve, it made me want to solve it, and it left me with open mouth when unexpected things happened, for example: Sherlock’s revelation about who the killer is at the end of the story. I loved that the story is from Weston’s point of view and It has got all sorts of letters and notes attached to it. Also, I loved the connection between the reality and the legend (the curse).
