Happy Christmas Eve! This picture shows Poirot looking miserable, not because of the outcome of a case, but because he hasn't yet listened to The #SwingingChristies annual Christmas special!!!!? ππ

Hmm unsure how the adaptations end, but I have a very strong theory as to why the book's conclusion goes down the way it does. Hint: people are so ready to think the worst of Christie... but she does it with mirrors!

Both are excellent but Sleeping Murder has such a fabulous, unique hook. TDIWM feels to me like the quintessential Miss Marple story - surely a big influence on adaptations and the 2022 new stories. Go ahead and devour em both cos like I say the reread is often as good or even better!

I didn't remember much about TDIWM until I reread but almost everything I discovered I enjoyed!
Funnily enough I also reread Ackroyd recently, having felt it was overhyped before, and found it quite thrilling and inventive despite knowing the ending

Just finished rereading They Do It With Mirrors and it has ROCKETED up in my affections. Always reread an Agatha Christie, folks- even the ones you thought you didn't like have SO MUCH to recommend them! - Gray
