Announcing Agatha Christie Short Stories 2025 #AgathaChristieSS25

I'm glad to announce that the Agatha Christie Short Stories Read Along is back for the second year: 2025! I've enjoyed it this year, and decided to do another....

AGATHA CHRISTIE SHORT STORIES 2025

What is it?

• Reading & reviewing Christie's short stories as standalones.
• Two short stories a month, starting from 1st January to 31st December 2024.
• I have curated twenty four stories with equal proportions of the Poirot's, Miss Marple's, Tommy & Tuppence's, and some of the non detectives. I omitted the Harlequin's and Parker Pyne's next year, since they were not of my favorites in 2024. And this time I picked stories from four collections only, so we won't need to provide too many books for the read along. Without further ado, here's...

How it works

• Early each month I will post a reminder of what two stories we will read that month, as well as any background info, if any. You can put links to your reviews of the month in the comment section.
• You're free to put reviews of two stories in one post if you like, or in two separate posts, as long as it's published within the allocated month.
• You're free to post on your blog, twitter, goodreads, or instagram. Just note that I might not do instagram posts/comments, but as long as you put the link in the comment, others might find your reviews.
• You can join in whichever month/story you'd like, no obligation to complete all - it's not a real challenge! As long as you read them within the month.
• Don't forget to visit, read, and comment each other's review - it's always fun to exchange idea/opinion with others who read the same thing with you!
• The hashtag we will use: #AgathaChristieSS25

Will you join me next year?
