Reading Agatha Christie in Publication Order: full list and progress


I've had in mind for years to do a full reread of all the Christies. I'm sure I've read them all at some point - mainly as a teenager in between PG Wodehouse and, later, Stephen King - but I don't remember much about most of them. Well, it was a long time ago.

After finishing Laura Thompson's biography (my review here), I got the idea into my head to read the lot (i.e. the novels and main short story collections) in publication order. And blether about them on my blog, because why not. So...that's the plan. I'm not sure yet if I'll incorporate the Westmacotts in order or leave them to the end.... I'll see how it goes.

I'm not promising there'll be no spoilers along the way, but I’ll try not to include any major ones.


Full list to date....

#1 The Mysterious Affair at Styles

#2: The Secret Adversary

#3 The Murder on the Links

#4 Poirot Investigates

#5 The Man in the Brown Suit

#6 The Secret of Chimneys

#7 The Murder of Roger Ackroyd

#8 The Big Four

#9 The Mystery of the Blue Train
