So a few years ago I got my hands of the complete works of Sherlock Holmes narrated by Stephen Fry and got really excited, because I’ve always enjoyed mysteries. It then took me about 3 years to wade my way through it after the first book because disappointingly enough, though not necessarily surprisingly, Arthur Conan Doyle is a bit racist, xenophobic, and maybe just a product of his time, but a tad misogynistic too.

The Monogram Murders by Agatha Christie and Sophie Hannah

April 14, 2015 by McM Leave a Comment

I picked this up from the library on a whim, ‘how is it possible for a new Hercule Poirot to exist?!?‘ The estate approved a new title by a new author, bestselling Sophie Hannah. So money, an effort to revive interest in her existing works, perhaps. The first thing I noticed, after the shock wore off, is the sheer size of this book. Agatha Christie novels are never longer than 150, 175 pages maximum. This large book is 320 pages long. Hmmmm… We begin with […]
