    <body><![CDATA[My first mystery in a while.  Taylor talked me into it by saying it wasn't scary and was a love story.  I did enjoy the love story.  But I do have to say that the words murder and strangle used repeatedly especially if read at night are to scary.  Taylor is just less sensitive than me I suppose. ]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[A friend of mine loaned me this book but I put off reading it for almost a year just because I'm not that into mysteries.  Since getting into romance, it's harder and harder taking an interest in other genres.  I finally forced myself to start.  The first chapter was unbelievably dull, but after tha...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1375448">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This is part of a group of books that Agatha wrote early in her career.  The detectives were not Hercule or Miss M., but a series of young, witty, Evelyn Waugh types from post World War I England who solved mysteries as amateurs.  I loved them all.  Unlike Hercule, these flappers and their male coho...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/32903496">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This read very differently from the large majority of Christie's work - it sounded like a cross between Christie and Wodehouse. I laughed almost the entire way through, even if it was a bit too silly in parts. Loved it.]]></body>
