so-so

My first Agatha Christie because I needed an autumn cover.

I've watched all of the adaptations so it was interesting to read the source material. I approve of the TV series inserting Hastings into everything.

Faranae TV show Hastings is also a huge improvement over book Hastings. Honestly, I like the Suchet Poirot better than the books (yes, yes, pillory me!). 1d

OutsmartYourShelf I've got this one but not got around to reading it yet. Nice autumn cover. 1d

OutsmartYourShelf @Faranae Honestly, same here. 1d

PuddleJumper @Faranae Good Lord! 😂 1d

LiteraryinPA Does this one go by a different name, I wonder? I haven‘t heard of it before. Hopefully that means I‘ve found a new one to read! She‘s one of my favorite authors. 1d

CSeydel @LiteraryinPA I was wondering that, too. 1d

PuddleJumper @LiteraryinPA @CSeydel It's a collection of short stories. It might be a new collection as there's also a winter one 1d

Death on the Nile: Hercule Poirot Investigates | Agatha Christie

pick

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I wish I hadn't known who did this one because it was ingenious. I'm such a fan of the TV series that I know most of the stories...

Regardless, this was splendidly enjoyable and intricately plotted.

Probably my favourite Poirot. Maybe even my favourite Christie. Up there with Roger Ackroyd and And Then There Were None, with the added bonus that it feels like you're floating down the Nile.

Love love loved it.

ravenlee I was just thinking I should read this, and you‘ve inspired me to bump it up the list. I‘m not a huge Christie reader, but I have liked most of what I‘ve read. Now to see if my library has it. 5d

4.50 from Paddington (Miss Marple) | Agatha Christie

4.50 from Paddington by Agatha Christie was a wonderful warming read with quirky characters, comedy and of course, the Jane Marple.

Current read is collection of shorts from https://gutenberg.org/ebooks/41170, and finally reading something by Margaret Oliphant, Hoffmann and MR James.

Der blaue Express: Ein Fall f�r Poirot | Agatha Christie

As a German English teacher I really like reading Agatha Christie. It definitely expands my vocabulary. 💪💪💪

BookNAround Interesting that Christie used it. It always makes me think of Maria in The Sound of Music when the nuns are singing about her “a flibbertigibbet, a will o‘ the whisp, a clown.” (edited) 2w

#ChristiesCapers, #AgathaChristieClubR3
While good, not one of ACs best. The characters and relationships were intriguing, and the plot twists certainly kept me guessing, but it seemed the ultimate solution had to be a bit forced. Might be just me. I did enjoy the book over-all.

Librarybelle I like that we can see Christie‘s progression as a writer by reading these in order! 2w

The Mousetrap: A Play in Two Acts | Agatha Christie

This afternoon I saw a local production of Agatha Christie's Mousetrap, apparently the longest running stage production in the world. It was such a fun play!

bookandbedandtea @Jeg @majkia I'm envious! I haven't been to London, much less seen a play there, but it's on my bucket list. 😊 2w
