C - Guilty Pleasures


(Guilty Pleasures is my alphabetic summer jaunt through fiction at my favorite library.)

Just enjoyed a breezy trip through "Black Coffee", by Agatha Christie. She originally wrote it as a play, and it was later adapted to a novel. I think it was my first read of Agatha Christie, although I can't believe that because I've really been a life-long mystery lover. It was totally an enjoyable novel with delightful quirky characters, featuring the infamous Hercule Poirot (from Wikipedia - pronounced in english [ɛʀkyl pwaʀo]).

I'm excited to moving onto D, but also sad, because I think I could camp out with Christie for the rest of the summer. I'm definitely going to have to go out of my way to meet Miss Marple.
