    I feel like I’ve already said this before, but this pink is absolutely perfect on you!! No comments on Agatha Christie, just had to comment on your sweater-and headband too! So cute! 😁🥰

    You've read a whole lot more Agatha Christie than I have! Top tier books for me: The ABC Murders, Peril at End House, Death on the Nile, Nemesis, And Then There Were None.

    I forget a lot of Agatha Christie. 🫣😂 Man in the Brown Suit is my favorite of what I’ve read. I think you should read The Caribbean Mystery before Nemesis - they are connected.

    I'm such an Agatha Christie newbie! I've read And Then There Were None, which was amazing, and Murder on the Orient Express, which also was amazing. This summer I got a handful of Miss Marple books from Book Outlet, and lately I've really been in a murder mystery mood, so I think I'll be reaching for those soon.

    Seven Dials Mystery and The Clocks are not the same. 😊 One's a book that I term as Other and one's a Poirot.
    Death on the Nile is one of my favorites, as well as And Then There Were None and Murder of Roger Ackroyd, but there are a lot that I like. I would probably put most in the top two tiers, lol. I really like Five Little Pigs, but that may be because of the David Suchet adaptation.

    Ten Little Indians and Halloween are my favorite. Of course I'm rereading all of my Agthga Christie books again-some I have had over 40years-and enjoy most of them. Like you I try reading one a month. I'm planning on reading Cat among the Pigeons for the January challenge. Mine does have a cat on the cover😺. Tfs. 📚📚🇱🇷

    @rebecca_is_book-hooked 8 місяців тому

    I agree and disagree with you on several lol. Roger Ackroyd was my favorite for a long time but recently read Crooked House and I think that one takes the cake 😃
    I just started 4:50 to Paddington and super excited about it 😊
    I really loved Body in the Library and Five Little Pigs. Not a big fan of Tommy & Tuppence. I was disappointed with Moving Finger because Marple only came in at the very end.
    One of the lesser known Christie books I loved was Taken by the Flood. Cards on the Table is also a high ranking one for me. And of course I love Orient Express, And Then There Were None, and Murder in Vicarage.

    There is a book published under the Agatha Christie series called Black Coffee which is a novelisation by Charles Osborne of the first play she wrote, If anything deserves to be in your bottom tier this is certainly it! Its 3.5 star rating on Goodreads is very generous. 😮‍💨

    • @ChantelReadsAllDay
      @ChantelReadsAllDay  9 місяців тому +1

      Lol, good to know! She also has a play, Spiders Web, which wasn't on this list, I own it but haven't read it yet, have you?

    • @warrengilson1835
      @warrengilson1835 9 місяців тому +2

      Another play given the novelisation treatment by Osborne. I haven’t read it and probably won’t. I wouldn’t mind except the publisher Harper Collins give them covers which strongly imply they are novels by Agatha Christie.

    • @warrengilson1835
      @warrengilson1835 9 місяців тому +2

      I do own a play script of The Hollow marked up with notes by the actor who owned it that I picked up at a church second hand bookstore in Gloucestershire but this was a novel first which Agatha turned into a play. It’s buried in a box somewhere (we moved house in April and most of my books are in storage 😅)

      ​@@warrengilson1835 Wait spider's web isn't Christie's ? I've read the play (like full theater/drama texte), not a novel like book, but now I'm rethinking my "read all Agatha Christie's book" checklist 😂
      There's also another play with mouse in the title, but it's quite the secret 🤫

    • @warrengilson1835
      @warrengilson1835 8 місяців тому +1

      ⁠@@nellobartohi! Yes, Agatha wrote the play script for Black Coffee, Spiders Web and another called The Unexpected Guest but the novelisations are by Charles Osbourne, a music critic. I was annoyed that the one I bought was a novelisation so perhaps that coloured my experience 😊

    Those bizarre book covers you showed were done by Tom Adams (Caribbean Mystery, Destination Unknown, By the Pricking of my Thumbs).He did many covers for Agatha Christie books. They are weirdly fascinating. I did not know about him until I found a book about his Agatha Christie cover art at a used book store.

    What is this incredible system you’re using to tier these? I love that you can drag the book covers to order them… Is it a feature of Goodreads? Some other type of magical thing you created? I must know!

    Have you watched any of the Amazon Prime mini series/movies based on her books? I'd love to know if you think they did a good representation. I just started reading Agatha Christie this year due to your recommendations, so I'm excited to continue reading more!

    • @ChantelReadsAllDay
      @ChantelReadsAllDay  9 місяців тому

      I've only watched Crooked House (the book was better), Haunting in Venice (that one makes me mad how they say it's based off her book, it's not) . . . and I think one other but I'm blanking on it. None of the mini series.

    I just ordered the first book from the library. I'm scared of cats, though, so I hope it's more of an analogous title. Cats involved in murder would not be good. 😉
    Unrelated, but . . . You were talking about a book in a recent video and I'm trying to remember the title. I haven't been able to find which video it's in. It was a book about a couple/brother-sister and a book shop, I think Set at Christmas time?
