We've been discussing stories from the Three Blind Mice collection. I chose it because it had stories featuring both Poirot and Miss M, as well as the title story and a Satterthwaite/Harley Quin story.
I'm OK. I've been so busy that I haven't made any progress on the current book in two weeks. I think I'll skip April, until things quiet down. I just taught the third week of my "Reading Agatha Christie" Class, for out lifelong learning group. One more week to go.
I was surprised by how vehement almost everyone was believing Lennox did it.An I know Fogg is a sweetheart, but in the defense of his master, well, who knows?
Kind of reminds me of the Canterfell Codicil, which we read some months back. Witty dialogue along with the mystery. I'm into the second section. That's all I'll say about that!
I didn't like much of anything here. The mystery seemed second to Mira doing crazy things (and thinking them). The Noel thing was unnecessary. I was upset that Jed didn't live. And Mrs. B was so totally annoying, I was ready to give up the book. And Mira seemed so unlikeable as a character, I can't imagine how she managed to continue in 10 books.
I'm far enough that I will finish, quickly, I hope. Frankly I am finding this whole thing a hopeless muddle.

I'm out of this first section and into the next. I hope all this bizarre stuff has something to do with the actual mystery. (Though at least we have a body...)
