Hello everyone!
My first Agatha Cristie novel was the very famous, "Murder of Roger Ackroyd" which made me feel extremely naive and dippy. Anyone who has read that book will understand my feelings of being left out in the cold and subsequent trust issues related to other Agatha Christie novels. I have always loved mysteries and thrillers, although my love for the former almost eclipses other genres.
During my preteen and early teens, I was
obsessed with reading Nancy Drew, and Hardy Boys. I have bought and borrowed
many other thrillers, crime and mystery books by authors such as John Grisham,
Robert Crais, Dan Brown, etc (very basic, I know) but it was Agatha Christie's
novels that remained my favourite in this category. To me, the only close
contender is JK Rowling's "The Cuckoo's Calling" and "The Silkworm".
