Kristie, I just got this one. Sounds really good. I will read your review after I finished. Seems like you liked it, but did not love it.

Kristie | 3595 comments Exactly, Kristine. I knew a lot of the plot twists well before I should have, but my husband didn't. Maybe I've just read too many similar type twists recently. Overall, it was good and I'd recommend a read.

Kristie, yes I understand that. We read a lot and after a while books can seem really similar. Well, I have to give it a read since it’s out 2/1. Can’t believe I got all January NG’s done. Thanks for your comments. Glad your husband gave it 5*.

I often struggle with 're-imaginings' of real events so I can understand your indecision with a rating - and great review!
My favourite theory for Agatha Christie's disappearance is the Doctor Who episode :) teehee

Kristie | 3595 comments Review #6!!! Pretty sure this will be it for the month, since I'm not close to finishing my current book, but I'm super happy that I was able to finish 6 reviews. It brought my ratio up to 97%, the highest I've ever been, and all my February books are done! I am finally on track.

Kristie, I just requested The Christie Affair. That sounds so interesting.

Connie N. | 738 comments I did add two books this month, but I read four, so I'm making slower but still steady progress!
