Have you ever read any of her Tommy and Tuppence stories? I think they're my favourite, followed by the Poirot stories. I'm not as keen on Miss Marple but I'll read them if there's nothing else going.
On a related notewho's yourfavourit Poirot/Miss Marple from TV or film?
IMHO David Suchet is the perfect Poirot, how anyone could cast Peter Ustinov as a character described as a amall, dapper man is beyound me.

I like historical murder mysteries myself, the Owen Archer mysteries and the Matthew Bartholomew Chronicles are my particular favourites.

If an advisor says to me "My liege, he is but one man. What can one man possibly do?", I will reply "This." and kill the advisor.

  Subject: [HPFGU-OTChatter] Re: Books books books! - Top 5?
  Gonna read for the first time:

  War and Peace
  Crime and Punishment
  about eight million Agatha Christie novels

  That's it for the immediate future, but that's because the semester 
  is a particularly stressful one.  As soon as this semester ends, I'm 
  really gonna get down and read a lot of stuff.

  Does anyone have a favorite Christie novel?  Mine is Thirteen at 
  Dinner (also called Lord Edgeware Dies), but And Then There Were None 
  and Roger Ackroyd are also up there.  We can make it a separate topic 
  from the Top 5 thing if anyone wants to reply to that.
