A fun mystery with Agatha Christie vibes.

Aside from a few outdated (very cringe) terms, this book is still the best. Absolutely my favorite book of all time, I used to reread it regularly but it's been a while, and only my second time listening to it. Love that they explained the none/nun joke more thoroughly in audio. 

Thanks to the New York Times Summer Reading Bucket List for getting me to "read a favorite from childhood."

Another reread of a childhood favorite! If I were an English teacher, this is the book I would use to teach foreshadowing. Such a fun mystery, and it never gets old, no matter how many times I come back to it!
