Piyangie’s comments from the Never too Late to Read Classics group.

I support Rosemarie's suggestion. I have been a Zoro fan since a child but never knew a book exists! Thanks, Rosemarie.

Thanks, Lesle.

Genre: Mystery

Authors: Agatha Christie and Wilkie Collins

Mystery any time for me. 😀

For authors, I'd like Agatha Christie and Wilkie Collins from the list. Lesle, how many authors can you suggest? Is it just one?

Historical Romance (set in Regency period): The Grand Sophy by Georgette Heyer

Two authors who suffered from tuberculosis: Franz Kafka and Albert Camus.

(I'm sorry for choosing an illness as the thing in common. I so want to read more of them.)

The Murder of Roger Ackroyd by Agatha Christie

210 pages

Group total: 331,924

Death Comes as the End by Agatha Christie

I erred in my page count at msg 912. So the new total is 328,476

Thanks, Anisha. I won't read Electra at this point so it's okay.

Oedipus the King by Sophocles

128 pages

Group total: 327,809

Is Antigone more violent and bloody, Rosemarie? I might read it if I have time. My next read is Medusa and I hear it one of the bloodiest Greek Tragedies. I don't know if it's so, but I'm a little uneasy. I'm determined to go through it somehow since I already have a copy.

I finished Oedipus Rex. Though the themes are disturbing, I enjoy it a lot.

I'm hoping to start Oedipus Rex today.

New group total is 320 484
