Those Poirot and Marple figures in your picture are UTTERLY ADORABLE!
As you know I love Agatha Christie too! I thoroughly enjoyed the audiobook of 'The Body in the Library' recently, read splendidly by Stephanie Cole. After that I started on 'The Mysterious Mr Quin', which I haven't really got into yet, but which I feel I should give a fair shot. So far it's not terribly interesting!
I wish I could read three books in a month. I have never been a fast reader. These days, it seems every time I pick up a book it is nonfiction and I am asleep in 10 minutes. 😂
can’t wait to read your Agatha Christie essay. That trailer for the Marlow Murder Club looks really fun. In March I read “my grandmother sends her regards and apologies” by Fredrik Backman a fun,easy and enjoyable read. I feel you about Jane Austen, I have a set of Jane Austen books sitting on my self that my son bought me my birthday but I really have to be in the right mood to read them, I’ve only read Northanger Abbey so far x
The ‘my grandmother’ book looks really familiar. I think my mum bought me a copy of that for Christmas! I’ll dig it out and bring it to the top of my pile.
Helen, I recently subscribed after your generous gift subscription ran out because I am so excited to see your journey. However, if I continue to add books to my TBR and shows to my TBW lists (which were both out of control to begin with) I may have to add your newsletter to a yet to be created TBS (to-be-substacked) list! I'm joking, of course. I just love the descriptions you gave for 'The Seven Dials Mystery' and 'The Marlow Murder Club', and I don't even particularly care for mysteries. These are both added to my lists, thanks to you. And, of course, I cannot wait until you realize you need to be writing a whole book about Agatha Christie, or at least the mystery genre itself, or maybe a how-to book for mystery writers. Put all that research to good use! Anyway, you continue to amaze me, inspire me, and definitely entertain me. Thank you❣️
Haha, I am so sorry about the increasing pile! Funnily enough I did have an idea for an Agatha themed book a few weeks ago - only to find someone else was already writing it! 🤣
Gorgeous post!

I look out for your Stories from my Desk’ updates. I love to read your monthly progress and reviews.
I’m intrigued by the Miss Pettigrew book and will be looking out for a copy to add to my TBR pile.
Enjoyable post Helen, oh
