She left the web, she left the loom She made three paces thro’ the room She saw the water-flower bloom, She saw the helmet and the plume, She look’d down to Camelot. Out flew the web and floated wide; The mirror crack’d from side to side; ‘The curse is come upon me,’ cried The Lady of Shalot...
This was a reread - Obsidian Blue and I did a buddy read of this one back in 2016. I remember that I enjoyed it, although I think I enjoyed it more this time around. I find that to be a pretty consistent theme with Christie - my expectations are really high going in, and then I'm pleasantly surprise...
I‘m super tired from last night so no big review for this one. I enjoyed it but it’s not my favorite Christie. It had a pace that felt like it was dragging for me. Still, the resolution to the mystery made sense and it was a fun read. I recommend it if you’re looking for a fun mystery to read. Fin...
This is so not a review, and I apologize. I just wanted to say that I had several different theories as to who the killer was as I was reading this book, and I was wrong with every one of them. I should stop being surprised by that when reading a Christie. I'll be passing this along to my mother...

Please note that I gave this book 3.5 stars, but rounded it up to 4 stars on GoodreadsIt's been a while, but Moonlight Reader and I did a buddy read of this book. You can find her review
I am so behind with writing reviews that I thought I'd catch up on all my recent Christie mysteries in one. I really enjoyed all three of these to the same extent: neither pretended to be anything than a straight forward murder mystery. There was hardly any social commentary - and none of which I ...
The Mirror Crack'd from Side to Side is one of the few books by Agatha Christie that I hadn't read before, but I saw the movie on Masterpiece Mystery so I knew the denouement. Like the last book, I thought there was something missing here. Maybe too much extraneous information about the change in sm...
NOTE : see this review and more on http://cocainepages.wordpress.com Well, Agatha is righteously named "a master". She surely is. This is a page turner. I read in about four hours, and I couldn't stop, no matter how hard I tried or how much I wanted to. I think this is a great quality in books: if i...
