I keep flip flopping on what to read next. I started Such Sharp Teeth but I don‘t think aim in the mood right now. Since this one is so short I figure I have enough time to read it before our #ChristiesCapers #AgathaChristieClubR3 read next week.

Low pick for me.
I thought this was going to be a 4 or 5 star read at first. Then halfway through it ran out of gas and the end was just annoying. There is no way Doug would act the way he did at the end. I thought it was building up to a something big, but it ended with a whimper.
It was a page turner though and I did speed through it and there were a few really interesting moments to reflect on.

Mehso-so

Finished this #HitchToScreen pick.
I‘ll admit I almost bailed before we ever got on the train.
I‘m glad I stuck around because the story was interesting and I really wanted to know of Miss Froy‘s fate…or if she existed at all.
I must say I struggled with the writing style a bit. I have a question for everyone that I‘ll put in a spoiler below.
The movie was pretty different and I have a thought I‘ll put in the spoilers below as well.
#bookblanket

MaleficentBookDragon Did Iris have sunstroke or was she actually hit on the head? I was confused in the book. The movie made it much clearer. 📖 vs 🎥 (edited) 2w
MaleficentBookDragon I didn‘t mind the whole romance in the movie, or the ditching of the sisters, the pastor and his wife, or even the crazy spy angle. But what I hated most that they changed for the movie was that the MAN was the one to figure out that Miss Froy was actually the patient and got to rip the bandages off her. Not cool Hitchcock! Not cool. 😡 📖 vs 🎥 (edited) 2w
marleed I love the granny square. Are you creating squares for 2025? If so, I hope you post the quarter‘s worth at the end of March! 2w

Murder on the Links | Agatha Christie

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.
