In My Mailbox (17)

Yesterday, I made a rare trip to the book store. I usually get my books from the library, but I had this sudden urge to buy more Agatha Christie books for my collection at home. So, I did! Here's what I got.

Murder on the Orient Express
by Agatha ChristieEn route to Paris, Belgian detective Hercule Poirot has booked winter passage on the fabled Orient Express. Among the assortment of fellow passengers, one wealthy American holds a unique distinction: He has been found dead of multiple stab wounds in the night compartment of the Calais coach. By dawn, thirteen travelers, each bearing a secret, will find themselves suspect in the most ingenious crime Poirot has ever solved...

The Murder of Roger Ackroyd
by Agatha ChristieA widow's suicide has stirred suspicion and dreadful rumors - of blackmail, and of a secret lover named Roger Ackroyd, who was stabbed to death in his study. And there are rumors that his neighbour, Hercule Poirot, doesn't have a clue who did it.

I haven't read a Christie book in a while, and I've been craving a good, solid mystery. I saw the movie version of Murder on the Orient Express, so I kind of know what happens. But that was a long time ago, and plus - I want to read the book version. As for the other one, I don't know much about it except that it's one of her most famous books. I can't wait to get started!
