My favorite Marple is <i>4:50 To <br />Paddington</i> (the American title is <i>What Mrs. McGillicuddy Saw</i>) and <i>A Murder Is Announced</i> was good too.Elisabeth Grace Foleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02073159989691222645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402858251720664038.post-37081991053413936482011-01-27T14:41:08.555-08:002011-01-27T14:41:08.555-08:00Kelsey: you should be on a major guilt trip.

I hope I've improved since then!<br /><br />Elisabeth: never heard of BM Bower but now I want to check her out! :) So far my favorite Agatha Christie's have been her Miss Marple stories, though Murder On The Orient Express is fantastic. What are your favorites?<br /><br />Eric: a whole website devoted to Constance Savery? I'm stopping by!

I happen to be re-reading <i>Gaudy Night</i> at the moment, Susan Cooper is a great favorite of mine, and I have a web site devoted to Constance Savery; Google "constancesavery" to find it. Catholic parents may suggest skipping Savery's novels about the persecution of Huguenots: <i>Rebel Jacqueline</i>, <i>Scarlet Plume</i>, and <i>Silver Whistle</i>. <i>The City of Flowers</i> is another title not recommended for Catholic children.Eric Schonblomhttp://www.constancesavery.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402858251720664038.post-42996220900384978352011-01-25T12:27:00.959-08:002011-01-25T12:27:00.959-08:00Unfortunately, this past year was part of a long l...Unfortunately, this past year was part of a long lapse in recording what I read - I didn't start until very late in the year, so I missed recording my favorites. I'll do better next year! But off the top of my head, one of my favorite discoveries was early female Western author B.M. Bower - my favorites of her books are <i>Chip of the Flying U, Tiger Eye</i> and <i>Her Prairie Knight</i>.<br /><br />Agatha Christie is one of my all-time favorite authors! I've read almost all of her books and only regret that there aren't more. Which are your favorites?Elisabeth Grace Foleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02073159989691222645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402858251720664038.post-56059708222581500212011-01-25T08:24:51.882-08:002011-01-25T08:24:51.882-08:00i still read yur writin on the rr sitei still read yur writin on the rr siteAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402858251720664038.post-49508333067938409942011-01-25T07:22:25.530-08:002011-01-25T07:22:25.530-08:00ooooh guilt trip... :P One of my other friends was...ooooh guilt trip... :P One of my other friends was nagging me about that too the other day, I should get back to it, but it needs so. much. work... haha thanks though ;)<br /><br />Enemy Brothers for the win!!!!<br /><br />I read hardly anything this year either.
