I am a huge Agatha Christie fan and have participated in the Read Christie reading challenge before, but I don’t think I’ve ever posted about it here before. It’s hosted at agathachristie.com. This year it’s about characters and their careers. Every month features a character type and the book selected for that month features them – from artists and performers to detectives and spies. There are “official” selections, but you can also choice to read alternatives. The hashtag is #ReadChristie2025.
January – Artists (Five Little Pigs)
February – Authors (The 13 Problems)
March – Performers (Three Act Tragedy)
April – Butlers (The Seven Dials Mystery)
May – Detectives (Cards on the Table)
June – Amateurs (Crooked House)
July – Archaeologists (Come, Tell Me How You Live)
August – Medics (One, Two, Buckle My Shoe)
September – Religious Figures (At Bertram’s Hotel)
October – Lawyers (Towards Zero)
