pickIt was again a very light and cheerful Agatha Christie novel.
pickAudiobook. Still love Tommy & Tuppence, but this story is a little slow. The couple is getting older, & Tuppence wants to solve a mystery after meeting an elderly lady in a nursing home. 3 ⭐️
Anybody up for an Agatha Christie group of the Litsy Markup Postal Book Club? @Suvata is hosting sign-ups for Round10 and new participants are welcome. I am looking for 2 more members to jump in on Group N with me!
2020 has to be good for something and that something is that I have found Litsy, and I am discovering it's charms in full force! 😃 ❤

Took a trip out to Windsor today for lunch with the hubby & found this old 2ndhand store down a side street. Scored big time with their books, I found these 1970s editions of Dame Agatha which are so cool and the price was fantastic. All of these plus three other books cost me $8! #bargainsoflitsy
pickThis was only my second book by Christie, and I really loved it. Tommy and Tuppence are are delightful, if somewhat ridiculous at times. And the twist at the end actually surprised me. 🙀
Many libraries around the city and never a spare seat to be found!

Blurry morning, turning the pages quickly on a fast-moving train .

pickIt‘s been years since I read this book, and it didn‘t disappoint upon re-reading. The Tommy and Tuppence series is nice to read because they age, so you get to see them as young people, as middle-aged people, etc. I wish there were more books featuring them. I had forgotten the twist in this book and totally didn‘t see it coming. It was creepy. I‘m reading this whole series in order, and I look forward to the next one, Postern of Fate.
Anyone else track their books the old fashioned way? My 2018 so far (not including an unread stack of impulse buys! 😛)

The Lima bean has accompanied me this evening while I read. The past week has been a slow reading week. The weird weather translated into weird people coming into my job demanding crazy things. So I ended up going home and just falling asleep. This weekend has been perfect for me to really get back to reading. Here's hoping this Monday can be calmer!
#booknlunch I did also have a peanut butter and apple and hummus with pretzels. It's been crazy at work. The kind of times where you wonder if this is the best place for you. I have been falling asleep as soon as I get home. What I really need is a fort and books. No more nasty people around me for a bit. Agatha Christie is like a safety blanket. Enjoying my first Tommy and Tuppence!
I love Agatha Christie, but her books had some very weird vintage covers. #badcovergoodbook #aprilbookshowers
so-soCompleted title no 4 in the Tommy/ Tuppence series. Found the ending rather a let down. Nonetheless I plan to complete the 5th and last title in series for #santhiReads2017
That's the current #AgathaChristie loot (2/3 read) for this year's reading goal...
Will start the 2nd Jane Marple - Body in the library once I complete Poirot's first case ;))
" By the Pricking of my Thumbs, Something Wicked this Way Comes" I love how this begins in a retirement home ( I work in one) and refer to the "unique "residents. It had me comparing these characters to a few favorites I take care of. My first Tommy and Tuppence-I thoroughly enjoyed these two! This one even had a bit of creepiness- perfect for October! #octoberreads
