Welcome to Litsy!

This was outstanding 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻A true who-done-it! And the audio narration was brilliant. Plenty of twists and red herrings kept me on my toes. Even when I solved the crime, I was second guessing myself. So glad to have picked up this classic for #AAM @Soubhiville
Which book should I listen to next?? Should I stick with the Poirot series???

Starting my #AAM #DameAgatha @Soubhiville I‘m already quite charmed 🥰also this cover edition works for #Booked2021 #MustacheOnCover 🥸

#Top20Series #20Series20Days - THREE:

I thought that I knew what needed to be known by a true Agatha Christie fan, but that is an incorrect assumption. I didn‘t know that her sixty-six detective novels could be divided into SIX series along with some stand-alone novels: Hercule Poirot, Miss Marple, Tommy and Tuppence, Superintendent Battle, Colonel Race and Harley Quin. Who are Harley Quin and Col. Race?👇🏽

#SundayFunday
1. I can always re-read The Mysterious Affair at Styles. It was my first Christie and a sentimental favourite for that reason.
2. A new-to-me mystery novelist on my TBR list is Nicolas Freeling. I have Gun Before Butter on deck.
3. For my “favourite“ mystery novel adaptation, I'll say Endeavour. It's an adaptation/spinoff that I actually like BETTER than the source material.

A satisfying murder mystery for Hercule Poirot‘s first case. #agathachristieclubr2 #mounttbr

Book 4 of #24b4Monday ✔️
Time: 14h10m

Quite a delight - though I did have to go back to listen to some parts again! Looking forward to the #agathachristieclubr2 discussion.

A re-read for #agathachristieclubr2 , and I chose to listen to it this time. Hercule Poirot‘s first appearance in a Christie novel (and her first novel) involves red herrings and Christie‘s love of poison discussion. The audio was great to listen to, even if I swear the narrator mispronounced some of the French words. A good revisit to get back into the Christie readings!

Getting excited to start this month‘s pick for the Agatha Christie Book Club! Pictured: The mystery section at my beloved Pioneer Book. ☠️☠️☠️

This is the first Poirot mystery that Christie wrote, and except for the fact that there are no modern technology here like phones and mobile phones there‘s nothing that indicates that it was published in 1920.

Since I‘m easily fooled, I didn‘t know who the killer was until the big reveal.

Really looking forward to the discussion of this #agathachristieclubR2

I haven‘t read to many Poirot crimes, but this was hilarious

Apologies for posting this late, but after Richard's death I needed a bit of a social media break. BUT if you're excited about reading Agatha Christie like I am, please join the #agathachristieclubR2 for this month's selection, The Mysterious Affair at Styles! I'll post discussion questions at the end of September.

@ferskner is starting a second round of the #AgathaChristieClub (hence the R2! - the first Agatha Christie read-through began a couple of years ago). If you've already been working on Christie's works and don't want to restart, we would still love to hear your thoughts at the monthly discussions!! Check out @ferskner 's original post for more details, and join us in reading and/or discussing The Mysterious Affair at Styles in September!! :-)
