Several good stories, including Poirot & Mr. Quin stories. I think I‘ve completed all of Christie‘s books with this one. Most of the ones I read this year were audio, & I‘m sure I‘ll revisit my favorites.

These short stories are very different from other Christie stories. They have a different atmosphere and mood, and many aren‘t detective stories at all. It‘s a very gray day here, but the clouds held off for the Arts & Crafts Festival, so that was nice. It was a chilly but nice day to stroll Fairhope and look at people‘s creations. #audiowalk
If you‘ve only read Agatha Christie‘s novel-length murder mysteries, you‘re missing out. She wrote tons of atmospheric, even downright creepy short stories. This collection has some good ones. I highly recommend exploring Christie‘s short stories to gain a deeper appreciation of her talent. #52bookclub2023 #publishedposthumously
This turned up on YouTube so I listened while I was keeping cool inside with the air con and a jigsaw. Short and enjoyable. Agatha Christie wrote so much and I‘d not heard of this story. Perfect for a hot West Aussie afternoon. In my much younger days I would have been at the beach! I used to love the heat, Not so much anymore. I‘m sending warm thoughts to those in the deep freeze of North Eastern US .
I enjoy Agatha Christie mysteries, but I was hoping for more Hercule Poirot shorts. This one only had one.

Finishing the last short story in this book, which is the titled story. Enjoyed these stories- not all murder mysteries but mysteries of the heart & life. A reminder to me of how skilled Christie is about the emotions of the human heart in all its beauty & ugliness. Motivations are never simple, or black & white.

“...What is that something that they possess—the sirens of this world! “
Sirens seem to be appearing in my reading everywhere!

Starting my morning with a short story from this Christmas gift(Tagged book).
This is the best book of short stories by A.C. I've read and I think I've read most of them. Every story was great and hard to pick a favorite. ❤
Nach dem gestrigen Debakel heute die Rettung im Buchoutlet. 😂 Wenn man #AgathaChristie sammelt, hat man mächtig Arbeit.
Yesterday's book shopping was bad, so today I took some more. 😁 If you collect Agatha Christie books, you have many to search for.
