My favourite book is "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
I first discovered these stories when I was about twelve and I've loved them ever since. They're brilliantly written, full of bizarre crimes and they've got a terrific Victorian atmosphere.
When you read them you really feel like you've been carried back to nineteenth-century London.
All the twentieth century detectives like Miss Marple and Inspector Morse seem really boring compared to Sherlock Holmes.
That's where Conan Doyle, really makes you believe that Holmes is unique — a genius with amazing mental powers.
Normally I only read detective stories once. And always wonder of Sir Arthur's skill!
New year is a special day for me since I and my family celebrate this holiday together.It seems as if there is magic in the air at this time of the year
We prepare to the celebration in advance so that we don't omit anything. Personality I can't imagine this fest without Christmas tree and garlands all around the house. I like to decorate Christmas tree myself , especially I like trimming it with colourful and glossy baubles.This year I have made a good job , the tree is absolutely amazing
As for the food ,we have a special tradition in our family , on the eve of new year ,we gather all together to bake Christmas cookies .It is so much fun and delicious as well .Mum and granny lay the table , decorate it with lots of candles and branches of the Christmas tree . symbol of the year is always in the middle of the table.I believe it will bring luck in our lives
Right before new year we sit at the common table with lots food on it and make toasts wishing each all the best in the coming new year.After the clock strike twelve we go outside and watch fireworks over the skyline shining so bright so vivid that I forget of everything.
When we come back home to play some games together , dance and sing .
I do love this day because it's the only day we gather together with the family and i want this day to last forever
