Did not finish. Read the two “Holmlock Shears” stories and two other short stories and gave up. The mysteries, deductions, and tricks were not particularly interesting; Holmlock Shears is a hilarious name, but the actual character did not capture his name sake; most other characters, including Lupin himself, were not terribly interesting. It wasn’t outright bad, but didn’t grab me enough to warrant reading this entire 700+ page book.
