Which of her books did she love and which did she hate. I was told that she really wasn't fond of The Mystery of the Blue Train. Does anybody know what her favourite because she rarely did interviews?

Despite some skeptics on the forum, one of AC's, her grandson's and also Max Mallowan's favorites was Endless Night.

I can remember from her Autobiography (and I'm doing this from memory so I can't remember all the books she mentioned) that she considered The Moving Finger, Ordeal By Innocence and Crooked House her most satisfying books.

She also said how little she did like The Mystery of the Blue Train and couldn't beleive some people actually liked it. Well, I'm one of them!!
