I've read some of Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes, but I have never owed any, and there are so many versions to buy. I would like to get them all and in the correct order, I've been on Amazon and Book Depository and there seems many different ones out there to buy, my question is, do you own the "complete" novels and short stories and is there one set that you would recommend? Thanks,

I'm sorry if this is the wrong place for this but I felt we needed (Well I needed ) a Shakespeare thread. I LOVE Shakespeare. My favourite Tradegy is Richard III (I had the honour of playing Lady Anne, Richards 1st wife, at school). My favourite comedy is a toss up between A Midsummer Nights Dream and As You Like It. I can't even begin to choose a favourite Sonnet! It changes frequently. Some of my favourite Shakespeare quotes... "Now is the winter of our discontent" - Richard III "A horse! A Horse! My kingdom for a horse!" - Richard III "All the worlds a stage, and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances and one man in his time plays many parts" - As You Like It "Lord, what fools these mortals be" - A Midsummer Nights Dream "Shall I compare thee to a summers day?" - Sonnet 18 "The course of true love never did run smooth" - A Midsummer Nights Dream "This above all, to thine own self be true" - Hamlet "What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet" - Romeo & Juliet "The better part of valour is discretion" - Henry IV Part I "If music be the food of love, play on" Twelfth Night "Be not afraid of greatness. Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them" - Twelfth Night That's all I can remember for now haha! Anyone else a Shakespeare fan? I can be a ye olde fangirl when I want to be
