The Queens of Crime by Marie Benedict
DID NOT FINISH: 18%

It was a fun premise, but I found that there were a few anachronistic aspects such as Americanisms in the voice of Dorothy L. Sayers (“pantsuit,” “washroom”) and a manner that just didn’t work for this famously staunchly academic writer (even in her mystery writing). The descriptions of Agatha Christie’s clothes were hilarious and on point though. I guess I wasn’t in the mood to overcome those issues.
