pickWell, I liked this one quite a bit! I find it amusing how Poirot has started acting a little like Miss Marple in this one ("Now, what does that remind me of?"). The political intrigue subplot felt unnecessary and a little like Red Scare Era propaganda, but otherwise, this mystery was delightful to read. #doublespin
The I cannot resist a weird vintage Christie cover. These two are from the 1970s. I picked them up at a used bookstore yesterday.
I like the tagged one (the next #christiescapers buddy read) but the bright red lips on the Taken at the Flood is a little off putting.

pickFinished in February. Behind already on the Agatha Christie reread. I tried to go into this one thinking good thoughts about Hastings but I just can‘t stand him. He thinks he‘s so clever and he‘s really not.
February reading wrap. A very slow month.
Rebecca the #booksnake only got 4 new stripes this month after a whopping 10 last month.
And Then There Were None Retelling 🔪

This was my first read and introduction to Tommy and Tuppence. I enjoyed the mystery and the two young detectives even though it was a bit contrived and ridiculous but I found it fun and engaging. I would definitely read another book in this series.
so-soFriends Thomas Beresford (Tommy) & Prudence Cowley (Tuppence) bump into each other in London after the end of WWI. In the aftermath of the war, they are struggling to find work & so they decide to place an advertisement together but before they can do so, they become embroiled in a conspiracy. Important government papers were entrusted to a passenger on the 'Lusitania' (a ship sunk by a German U-boat) who has since disappeared (continued)
I‘ve decided to join the #christiescapers buddy read. The only Agatha Christie book I‘ve read is Murder On The Orient Express and I liked it. I‘ve been wanting to read more of her books. I have some of her books on my Audible app and this will give me a good excuse to read them sooner rather than later. They also seem like short audiobooks. I‘m only 2 months behind on the buddy read because I just joined but I have time to catch up.
