Just finished re-reading 'Parker Pyne Investigates', which is a nice collection of sweet tales. Now re-reading 'The Vesuvius Club' by Mark Gatiss.

Right now im reading The mirror crack'd from side to side. It was really hard to find. However, i don't think im going to enjoy it as much as the rest of the books.

i'm currently reading mystery of the blue train and it is such a wonderful story..i love the plot and all..hercule poirot is the greatest..

I'm currently reading "Moving Finger".

This topic shouldn't be posted on "Discuss Miss Marple" section though.

I agree ariadnepoirotmarple, Enjoy 'Moving Finger' It is a good book only let down by Miss Marple appearing

This Morning I started The Thirteen Problems I haven't finished the 1st Chapter but what I have read I hear Joan Hickson's voice in my head which is nice, I have the Audio Book in which she is the Narrator so perhaps that is why but am sort of hoping I hear voices of people I would cast in the roles if tht doesn't sound too weird, When I have time I am currently listening to 'Miss Marple's Final Cases' on Tape but I haven't finished 'Sanctuary', Up to now I haven't read the books of Short stories featuring Miss Marple and Poirot, I have only listened to them on Tape. 

Have just finished reading Murder at The Vicarage great read loved it.

i am going to start reading 4.50 from paddington

I am currently re-reading The Thirteen Problems. I have read and re-read it many times now.I love the Miss. Marple stories so much. I wish Christie had written more of them.

I have just finished 'The Thirteen Problems' I loved it although the Actress Iritated me and I got a bit lost with the last story Miss Marple told in the Group and 'Death by Drowning' but that was just me I think, I agree perhaps Agatha Christie should have written more books with Miss Marple but I think there are too many books with Poirot but again that is just my opinion.

I don't really care for short stories, however, I have always enjoyed the Miss Marple ones. I think my favorite three stories in this one were "The Blood Stained-Pavement' 'The Herb of Death' & 'Death by Drowning' however, like you, I did get a little confused w/ it. I had to go back back & re-read some parts to fully get it.

BTW the reason why there are so many Poirot books is b/c the publishers kept asking Christie for more Poirot books b/c he was so popular. I wish that there had been more non-series books, though. And I wish that Bundle & the other bright young things had had their own series!

I really love reading short stories and I love Miss Marple short stories more than anything else. My favorite stories from The Thirteen Problems are The Tuesday Night Club, The Idol House of Astarte, The Bloodstained Pavement, The Blue Geranium, The Companion, The Four Suspects, A Christmas Tragedy and The Herb of Death. Even after reading this book so many times I still love it.

I will start 'Nemesis' Later and I am really looking forward to it.

I've just begun reading A Murder Is Announced because I just watched the movie (three part Hickson version) and wanted to clarify something.  Of course, this isn't my first read.

I pulled out all my Tommy & Tuppence books (5), so they'll be next.  I also just watched their entire series, so I was in the mood to read some mysteries.  Many years ago, I belonged to a book club and received By the Pricking of My Thumbs when it was first released, and that was my introduction to T&T, not Poirot, Marple, Oliver, etc., as I'd already spent many hours with them.

I am currently reading - er - devouring Murder on the Orient Express. Well, to be precise, I just finished it. Ingenious solution, that one. If any one manages to outsmart Poirot and beat him to the solution first, hats off to them. I personally find the crime to be of a most fantastic nature, yet truly believable. A masterpiece of a Christie.

I finished A Caribbean Murder today. I thought it was great - I especially liked the interaction between Miss Marple and Mr. Rafiel. Besides, the caribbean setting made it even more enjoyable to read it in torrid summer time - I could almost imagine to be in St. Honoré myself. And typically I made a very wrong guess as to who the murderer was, but that's part of the fun! ;)

I have just started 'The Mirror Crack'd From Side To Side', Agatha Christie Dedicated it to Margaret Rutherford, I was going to read Three-Act Tragedy but thought I would read this instead as it is apart of the 'Marple' series which Britain sees next month and I think I read that a Character in the book who hasn't up to now been portrayed appears so I thought I would read it so I can compere the Book and the Adaptation.

The posts are always mixed up Tommy_A_Jones at the moment. I'm not too sure what the moderators are doing but we seem to have missed August Book Club as well, and it's nearly September! ;-)That sounded a bit cross didn't it? I'm not cross about it, just a keen bean.

I am currently reading The Secret of Chimneys and am LOVING it. I think I'm in love with Anthony Cade and now I can see why our friend Moley changed her name to Bundle!

Just finished The Labours of Hecules and some of the short stories were great and some were so-so.

You will love The Secret of Chimneys, I preferred it to 7 Dials but that might be bnecause I have seen the Video of 7 Dials but maybe not, I preferred the result of Chimneys, I agree about The Labour of Hercules, some stories were Great and some went on a bit, I preferred tyhe ones with Japp, George and Miss Lemon and I also liked Mrs Carnody, she made my mind think of somethingf else AC should have got Poirot to do, You didn't sound cross just rightly miffed.
