This year I finally read the Agatha Christie novels I've had for years. I've watched the Poirot and Miss Marple shows and movies. (Pretty sure I've seen them all, honestly, until recent releases. I marathoned every version I found.)

I really really enjoyed the stories. Her writing is not fluffy; it's descriptive but more factual than emotional, which works for detective stories. And for being marketed as her token detective characters, the Belgian and old lady really do not have starring roles in the books. They're almost side characters; I thought it was a neat approach. I wasn't used to that.

But I liked what I read from her enough that I've bought more. /w\
