Third Girl: A Hercule Poirot Mystery | 
pickA young woman confesses that she thinks she may have committed a murder, then vanishes, leaving Christie's legendary sleuth Poirot desperate to find her and to figure out just exactly how one could not know whether they were a killer or not.
This was a little slower than some of Christie's other tales, but is good nonetheless. This slow burner presents a complex mystery where reality is subjective and not everything is as it seems.
so-soNot one of the better Poirot mysteries, IMO, but I did like the presence of Ariadne Oliver and Hugh Fraser's audiobook narration.

"Everyone must have heard about Hercule Poirot" - the little grey cells assert
pickMy final book of 2019 was this Agatha Christie. A good mystery but not one of her best in my opinion. The wrap up of the loose ends took a couple of unnecessary steps that made me cringe a little.

I‘m reading by whim at the moment from my shelves - I‘ve already got my book pile ready for my holiday the following week, I‘m kind of ignoring my 2020 list of books until then!
Part way through an Agatha Christie novel and the Tudor Christmas book and then I think I‘ll dive into Olive Kitteridge and maybe start Pachinko. #bookseveryoneelsebutmehasread
pickNot a favourite of AC but doable. Quite confusing especially when Poirot was trying to decipher his thoughts to conclude the mystery. In the end, it‘s an unexpected outcome 😅
pickSpotted this lovely little Christie at the library book sale and dropped everything to read it. Yass Queen! 👸🏼 (or should I say Dame?) That amazing twist at the end! #mystery #classicmystery #anglophilesoflitsy #poirot #agathachristie
@jenniferw88 the paperbacks here are the 125th anniversary editions with the photographic covers. The facsimile editions are these cute vintage looking hardbacks like Halloween Party. ☺️👌🏻#achristieswapisannounced
I got to go to one of the most amazing bookstores today in Venice, Libreria Acqua Alta! Because of previous flooding, the owner has the books in bathtubs and gondolas and stacked up to the ceiling. It‘s incredible! The perfect way to spend my last day in Italy.
#OldCoolBooks #day14 #Whodunit The queen of the whodunit is definitely Dame Agatha.Her main characters Hercule Poirot & Miss Marple have been the inspiration for so many writers since.She‘s in Guinness World Records as the bestselling author of all time, over 2 Billion copies sold & her play The Mousetrap is the longest running play in history. These books are my editions of Christie Crime Collection from the 80s. I‘m still hunting for more🕵🏻♀️
Gifts from a friend! I love this edition of Third Girl and that Poirot bookmark is so much gorgeous! I guess I‘d better share with the #JaneAustenSwap tag that I‘ve got this book too now, in my JA collection! 😅 #janeausten #Poirot #agathachristie #christieclub #agathachristieclub #janeite #austenite #maidensofmurder #bookhaul
Hercule Poirot and Ariadne Oliver. Technically not a "couple" couple, and I believe that Oliver only appears in a handful of books, but I really enjoy them as a team that I wish Christie had written a whole subseries of books about them ?️♂️?️♀️

Today is a perfect day for eating bonbons and reading about murder. My Agatha Christie binge continues with this most 60s of stories, full of mods, drugs, beatniks and Beatles-- and Hercule Poirot, of course!
#day2 #backtoreading #followtheclues A little #shelfie dedicated to the Queen of following the clues.... Dame Agatha rocks! 💕
Coloring while spending time with Poirot!
"What can I hope?" Well, one could always hope. He could hope that those excellent brains of his, so much better than anybody else's, would come up sooner or later with an answer to a problem which he felt uneasily that he did not really understand.
pickEnjoyable cozy mystery. Kind of fun to read a '60s Christie mystery.
Here are a few of my books with #girlinthetitle. I found an article about why so many books have girl in the title and it explained that it potentially "hints at a vulnerability that raises the stakes" (www.motto.time.com/4551310/girl-book-titles/) #readjanuary
By far my favorite find at my library's book sale today ! It's a first edition, too 😍 #agathachristie
TBT to my 2ndhand old crime collection Agatha Christie set. She was the first ever 'adult' crime writer I read when I was a child, I still break them out and reread on a regular basis. Her and Arthur Conan Doyle were my intro to a lifelong love of crime & mystery.🕵🏻🔪🔫
