  • THE MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR AT STYLES BY: AGATHA CHRISTIE

    THE MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR AT STYLES BY: AGATHA CHRISTIE

    A great intro to the OG mystery writer. 4.5 stars for a great book. I am starting at the beginning of the Hercule Poirot series and read them all. I have read some of the more famous Agatha’s books, but I’m excited to start reading them all. The writing was excellent. At the end I…

  • THE MURDER ON THE LINKS (HERCULE POIROT, #2) BY: AGATHA CHRISTIE

    THE MURDER ON THE LINKS (HERCULE POIROT, #2) BY: AGATHA CHRISTIE

    #2 in the series and I’m already hooked.  This the second book in the Hercule Poirot series. The first book Christie tricked me on the reveal but this time I figured it out before she could tell me. She tried to lead me astray (and she probably was successful if I’m being honest) but in…

    THERE IS A TIDE BY: AGATHA CHRISTIE

    I am in FULL agreement with all other reviews that you should not read the last 3 pages of the book. Yet, that does not stop me from giving the book a full 5 stars. I really enjoyed this story. I thought it WAS overly complex but it kept me confused enough to not see…

    MURDER IN RETROSPECT (HERCULE POIROT #25) BY: AGATHA CHRISTIE

    Another Christie Classic! I am working through my goal of reading all the books in the Hercule Poirot series. This was a bit different one as we ‘went back in time’ to solve the murder. I was trying to keep up with Hercule as I read. I thought I knew who did it the whole…

    THE SECRET ADVERSARY BY AGATHA CHRISTIE

    Let me start by saying, I read this via audio book. Although I loved the speaker, I felt I was missing something by not holding a used paperback book while reading. That feeling, the pages, the smell were lost and I really believe it would have added to the reading experience.     Now – big…

  • THE BODY IN THE LIBRARY BY AGATHA CHRISTIE

    THE BODY IN THE LIBRARY BY AGATHA CHRISTIE

    As a huge fan of Christie, I found I am not a huge fan of Miss Marple. I love Poirot but found Marple missing the magic that Poirot does. Marple wasn’t even in the story as much as I thought she should have been. Then she comes in and saves the day but I found…
