I have always loved mysteries and began reading Agatha Christie while I was still in high school. Our Rapid City book club was going to read The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, so I jumped on board. The cheapest version I could find online was a compilation of Christie classics. So I began with the Roger Ackroyd story, which was very enjoyable, though dark and hard for me to follow. The book club discussion made me appreciate it more, however, and I decided to read the others in the book.
And Then There Were None
The Witness for the Prosecution
Philomel Cottage
Three Blind Mice
were the other classics included in this compilation. They were all enjoyable, and so well-written! It's a pleasure to read such wonderful prose and to be charmed and horrified by the characters. I may just keep this around to enjoy again another time...
