Day 17 Book Photo Challenge: Favorite Classic

I picked A Study in Scarlet as my favorite classic but, honestly, I could have picked any of the Sherlock books that I have read as my favorite because I just love the character.
As I have said previously I didn't start reading classics until I got my kindle four years ago for Christmas and was a broke university student who discovered free books from the Gutenberg Project. Since then I have read quite a few but I found that the Sherlock books by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle speak to me the most because they are the most like what I normally read in modern fiction. Smart characters that get one (or several) up of the authority figures of the piece but are a little bit broken them self.
