Mystery of the Blue Train | Agatha Christie

pick

PICK! PICK! PICK!! This was sooooo needed after my “meh” feelings of Agatha‘s previous title (The Big Four) - I loved this one! Poirot was so sassy 😆 At first I was annoyed he didn‘t appear on page 1, but I think it actually made me stick with this book to get hooked waiting for him. I see what you (possibly?) did there, Agatha 😏

RaeLovesToRead The Big Four really is the worst Agatha Christie book that I've read 😄 I'm up to Dumb Witness in my Poirot along. It was one of my favourite episodes so hopefully it'll be enjoyable! 2d

Aims42 @RaeLovesToRead Sometimes it makes sense when a favorite author has a book that you‘ve never heard of before 😆 I hope your Poirot journey continues in a positive manner! 2d

RaeLovesToRead Yeah, I would say The Big Four is Poirot trying to be James Bond, but I think it was written about 30 years earlier! 😅 2d

“He shifted a little and looked around him uneasily - to find Poirot almost at his elbow with a beaming innocent face”. This quote instantly made me think of The Office episode with this scene and I literally burst out laughing 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love Poirot so much!!

Sparklemn Love it! I‘m really enjoying this book. 3d

Aims42 @Sparklemn Me too!! I‘m completely hooked and don‘t want to put it down 🤩 2d

#FridayHappyReadingHour Okay, we‘re getting back on track… sorta 🤣 Just a day late! No snacks, but I‘m enjoying some vintage Price is Right in the background while I sip on my Cabernet Sauvignon with one of my current reads 😊 Leftover chili for dinner later so no rush to move from this spot 🙌

Aims42 @TheBookHippie I love the reply @Ruthiella gave, “It‘s taking the time to relax and adopt the mindset that counts!” Whenever that is 💛🧡🩷 No pressure! There‘s plenty of that in the real world 😵‍💫 4d

The Mysterious Affair at Styles (Poirot) | Agatha Christie

pick

#ChristiesCapers, #AgathaChristieClubR3
I got a late start, but the 1st is finished. I actually read this about a year ago, but I want to be true to the publishing date order so... . Every time I read an AC mystery I always tell myself to pay attention to every detail, especially early on; and every time I always miss or forget something. This was a good read. Looking forward to “The Secret Adversary“.

Librarybelle Yay!! 6d

Librarybelle @Sparklemn It‘s incredible the variety of books she wrote, some on the cozy side and others very thriller or suspense-like. 2d

The Big Four (Poirot) | Agatha Christie

so-so

Meh. One of my least favorite of Christie‘s works so far.
Hastings was especially annoying in these stories.
I mostly listened to the audio while knitting Estella, my emotional support chicken, seen here with the paperback, so it was worth it.
I got laid off last month & am having a hard time finding a new job. Thankfully I have books & hobbies to keep me from falling too far into depression. #christiescapers #agathachristieclubr3 #audioknitting

AmyG Your chicken is 🙌🏻❤️ 2w

julieclair Estella is beautiful! I hope the perfect job presents itself to you soon. 💙 2w

Ruthiella Good luck with the job search! Love the picture - perfect color combination . 👌 2w

Tamra I love your support chicken - she‘s gorgeous! 2w

Bette Estella is wonderful! So well done. Best of luck. 🤞 2w

RamsFan1963 I know that feeling. I got laid off back in December, and only started working again in April. It seems bad now, but some times a fresh start is the best thing possible. Good Luck 🍀 2w

Yuki_Onna Emotional support chicken! 😂👏 I didn't know this was a thing. Now I need one! 🐓 2w

MaleficentBookDragon @Yuki_Onna they were trending in the knitting and crochet communities awhile back. It looked too difficult to do to me so I let my kit just sit for almost 2 years. It really wasn‘t as hard as I expected. Mistakes WERE made, but that just adds to her charm. 2w

TheBookHippie Love the chicken!!! 2w

Yuki_Onna She really is charming! 1w

Bookzombie I love your chicken! I hope you find a great job soon. 💕 7d
