I prefer to watch Poirot and Miss Marple on TV. I've only ever read one AC book and I can't remember the title, sorry.

I've read Murder On The Orient Express and the Hollow, which are both brilliant. I don't like Miss Marple though, I prefer Poirot.

The Hollow is great, I would recommend it highly if you did enjoy Hickory Dickory Dock.

Never read any of Agatha Christie. Are they good? I prefer Doyle.

Isn't Miss Marple some crazed old bat who has to be called in everytime the police can't solve a crime?

And Poirot... ("Who's a pretty boy, then?" :smt005 )

Haha. Poirot is so funny. With his french accent. The actors British, you know. It's all rather brilliant.

Somehow, I really do not like criminals. I don't know why, I just don't, and that is probably why up till recently I couldn't stand Christie. (My mother, now, is completely crazy about her).

However, I did check a few of her book out of the library, and I managed to make myself read them. The fact that there wasn't anything else to read at the moment was probably the reason why I did it, and made it through. I rather liked Poirot and Miss Marple in comparison to the Poirot-less and Miss Marple-less other novels.

Never watched \anything of it on the TV, though, either, so I really can't express my opinion here.

I haven't read that particular title, but I really like some of the other ones I've been reading. I haven't seen any of the TV shows either, but I'm going to have to. :)

Her writing style can be a little dry, but not so much as the ACD books. (Though I do like them as well......)

I like Tommy and Tuppence....
