Kerrie of Mysteries in Paradise has finally done it. She's managed to talk me into joining yet another challenge - which wasn't really too hard. And a great one it is - The Agatha Christie Reading Challenge. Kerrie decided to work her way through Christie's books in order that they were written. Several people decided to join in and when she saw my reviews, she invited me to join. I finally decided to jump off the fence. Go here to read more about the challenge.
There is a great list on Wikipedia and also Agathachristie.com.
The books should be read in the following order:
On or around the 23rd of each month, Kerrie will be hosting the Agatha Christie Reading Challenge Carnival. Carnival # 2 is up and running and waiting for you to check out what everyone has been reading and what they have to say. The next carnival will be March 20th, so put it on your calendar and come join in on the fun.
Looks like I'll be visiting my favorite used bookstore soon!

ReplyDeleteMy advice - visit a used book store, or your library, or look for Agatha Christie omnibuses - it is a challenge that could send you poor
So many good books on that list. You'll have so much fun. Another one of my favs is Why didn't they ask Evans? Brilliant!
