Our tributes on Agatha Christie's birthday - September 15. posted at Agatha Christie Reading Challenge Carnival

Michelle Miller presents Novel Glimpses (6)--The Book Thief, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Ordeal By Innocence posted at The True Book Addict.
Rishi Arora presents The Crooked House by Agatha Christie posted at Classic Mystery Hunt, saying, "Agatha Christie calls The Crooked house as her one of her personal favorites and a book that she really enjoyed writing, first published in 1949 The Crooked House is part of the non series books by Agatha Christie which means there is no popular fictional detective like Miss Marple or Hercule Poirot in this one."
Norman Price presents ENDLESS NIGHT: AGATHA CHRISTIE posted at CRIME SCRAPS REVIEW, saying, "A dark psychological tale from 1967."
sarah presents They Came to Baghdad by Agatha Christie posted at A library is a hospital for the mind..., saying, "I was definitely surprised with this novel. In my opinion it's a definite winner and a top favorite for me. I highly recommend it to those readers who are looking for a variant from the typical English countryside murder mystery or those who love a good spy tale."
Sarah Ahmad presents Ordeal By Innocence posted at The Book Nook.
Hercule Poirot
Rishi Arora presents One Two buckle my shoe by Agatha Christie posted at Classic Mystery Hunt, saying, "Reading about the infallible Poirot getting scared of the dentist's chair and then taking advise from a retired home officer should be worthy enough to warrant a read. Throw in there a triple murder and political intrigue and this one goes off the charts"
ng kai-lee presents Agatha Christie?s Poirot series posted at -Zhen's Summer Cafe-, saying, "Poirot's various movie adaptations!"
Joanne presents The Murder on the Links by Agatha Christie posted at Seagreen Reader.

BooksPlease presents Evil Under the Sun by Agatha Christie: a Book Review posted at BooksPlease, saying, "Poirot solves 'a very slick crime' that was perfectly planned and timed."
Nan presents Cards on the Table by Agatha Christie posted at Letters from a Hill Farm.
Becky Laney presents A Murder on the Links posted at Becky's Book Reviews, saying, "I just loved this Hercule Poirot mystery!"
BooksPlease presents BooksPlease » Blog Archive » Taken at the Flood by Agatha Christie: a Book Review posted at BooksPlease, saying, "In Taken at the Flood Poirot is initially baffled - the case is all wrong - none of it is the right shape!"
Tommy and Tuppence
Joanne presents The Secret Adversary by Agatha Christie posted at Seagreen Reader.
KerrieS presents Review: N or M? Agatha Christie posted at MYSTERIES in PARADISE, saying, "World War II is the perfect opportunity for Christie to add to the Tommy & Tuppence series (and you may want to reflect whether they would have made another appearance without the war) but now Christie is a well established and successful novelist with 30 novels to her credit, so she doesn't wait for the war to end, but publishes N or M? while the issues it reflects are still topical.
Once you recognise that, you realise that Christie is reflecting a lot of contemporary thinking. It certainly must have made the average English reader look carefully at those around him. It is a very patriotic novel."
Short Stories
Camille LaGuire presents Short Fiction Recommendations: Agatha Christie posted at The Daring Novelist, saying, "Part of a larger series of recommendations of great short stories, for writers who have never read much short fiction."
Updates
KerrieS presents ACRC Update - 21 October 2011 posted at MYSTERIES in PARADISE, saying, "My calculation is that I am just on half way on my journey. I've read 44 out of an estimated 87 titles."
That concludes this edition.
