The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
6 The Man with the Twisted Lip
8 The Adventure of the Speckled Band

I've never read all of the Sherlock Holmes canon, and I always intend to read more of it but never actually do (the last time was a single story in 2016; before that, a few in 2014). Anyway, here's an attempt to change that. I decided to start with some of the best-regarded stories according to the Pocket Essential Sherlock Holmes -- which is just one author's opinion, so maybe I should look for a more definitive ranking! That said, Doyle once named The Speckled Band as his overall favourite Holmes story, so that's some recommendation.
