The #Caterpillar made me think of Sherlock Holmes, grumpy smoking, sometimes/often rude...

In the final stretch! Splurged on some yummy juice and grabbed this book on impulse from the library. It is either going to be totally awesome or a complete trainwreck - based on the descriptions of the stories contained within. Either way, it's probably going to be a fun way to close out #24in48 😄

This was one of the worst books I've ever read. I was so excited for different kind of Sherlock Holmes stories. Sci-fi, just various Aus, but every one of these but maybe 2 was horribly written. Most were unoriginal, sexist and boring too. Never, ever pick it up. I guarantee you can blindly pick a different book and it will be 100% better.

#TBRtemptation post 3! Michael Ventrella is a prolific author who has connections with all kinds of people in the publishing industry, hence him teaming up with the venerable Jonathan Maberry to put together a Sherlock Holmes anthology of the sleuth in various carnations: back in college, on reality tv, as a Russian robot, as a holodeck creation, as a vampire, as a parrot...you get the idea. Have a little fun! #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎
