I've been reading the entire Poirot series in publication order and I'm almost done! The Clocks is my next one to read. I too prefer these editions. Thanks for the tour, I feel like there isn't as much love for Christie on RUclips as there should be.
Get ready for a bit of a rant- I love those covers! I have a few myself. Unfortunately, some of the titles are no longer available in these editions from any online bookshops! I think this is because Harper Collins have released newer covers, which are still lovely but they don't match my current editions! Now if I buy certain Agatha christie books such as Peril at End House or Dead Man's Folly (examples of books no longer available in your edition) its going to look awkward on the shelf. I'm going to have an assortment of different editions in different sizes to one another:( Well, at least the stories are fantastic which is the main thing really!:)
I've only read By the Pricking of My Thumbs when I was younger and loved it. Just bought And Then There Was None, and hope to read more of her books soon! Great collection! 🦋
Congratulations on 3K. Can certainly understand why you have so many followers are your videos are great. Great to see the Poirot books all in a row. Makes me realize that I have quite a few to read still.
I also arrange my Poirot and Marple books according to publication date. Sad Cypress may be my favorite though there are a bunch of titles that I tend to reach for during rereads.
All those books are so beautiful! I just re-read "Five Little Pigs"and I loved it even more- it's so interesting and the end very thrilling and creepy. I also love The ABC Murders and Appointment With Death....I love all of Agatha Christie's novels, maybe my least favourite is "The Big Four", it just didn't feel like it is written by her, it's quite different from her other works...
My first Poirot story was actually Black Coffee two years ago. It wasn't until this year that I really got into Poirot, starting with Orient Express in preparation for the new film. I was always aware of it and wanted to read it, so I finally did, and I liked it. Then, of course I went back and started the series from the beginning. I just finished re-reading Black Coffee, which was good. I've also seen some of the David Suchet adaptations, and find he is very good as Poirot. In fact, from what I've seen so far, I'd say he is to Poirot was Jeremy Brett was to Sherlock Holmes.
I so need to read more Poirot! I've only read the Mystery of the Blue Train. Are you excited for the new Murder of the Orient Express film? It has a good cast but Kenneth Branagh's Poirot moustache looks rather silly from the trailers!
Being honest no, just from the trailer he unfortunately does not look like Poirot, not just the mustache (which is ridiculous) but the way which he is dressed and even the way he is stood, Agatha is very clear on Poirot's character and mannerisms, however I don't want to go into the film with negative thoughts so I am a bit apprehensive but will give it a good go.
Can anyone please tell me where I can found this herper edition in new york?.l found two secondhand.1.The secret adversary ...2.Destination unknown.i do not live in new york for a long time.
congratulations on your 3000 subs!! as this video proves your videos are great quality and your personality definitely shows through which makes even more better! Keep on with the great work :D x
You never get tired of Ariadne when she pops up. And of course, it's Christie's real take on how she RRREEEALLLY felt about writing! And it's always genuinely funny.
Dear Lil, Love your channel! I was THRILLED that Ariadne Oliver is your favorite character is Ariadne Oliver, as she is mine! How about a video on the novels she's in, so it's easier to find her. Christie could've made her into a detective or a larger character, but she didn't. Guess she felt it would've been TOO inside baseball, as they say here in the States.
Do you know if these editions are still available? They seem to have changed the covers, they now have photos on the front. I don't hate the new covers, but these ones are so much nicer!
I just finished reading Murder of Roger Ackroyd and rewatching the adaptation, this was definitely one where I like the book more than the adaptation but I still really like the adaptation, I feel like they didn't change it too much. One thing I will say though is knowing the twist beforehand did irritate me throughout reading but I still enjoyed it. Next up is the Big Four and I think I'll be able to get to Murder on the Orient Express right in time for the new movie. I think the trailer for it looked great except Kenneth Branagh's moustache for Poirot is laughably too big in my opinion lol. Great shelf tour, it really makes me look forward to continuing my Poirot journey 😀.
If you know the twist to Murder of Roger Ackroyd it really does change your reading experiance, such a shame, I am sure you will love murder on the orient express though, when you get to it, are you reading them in order?
sadly,i've seen so many of the poirot shows that i'm hesitant to pick up the books since i know what is going to happen. i am intrigued by the short story collection though.
I watched almost all the shows before reading the books and the books are so special, I would say they are worth the read regardless of if you have watched an adaptation, her writing is worth it :) and the short story collection is great, I hope you really enjoy it :)
I love how the cover of the first book ('Styles') and the last ('Curtain') are nearly identical, which is fitting because both the first Poirot case and his last takes place at the same location

Agreed, there needs to be more love haha. Good luck with the rest of the books :)
This is soooooooo satisfying to the eyes.❤❤
Thank you
Great idea. Love Christie. My favorite of all time. Growing my collection of her books.
I heard the David Suchet entitled his bio ‘Poirot and Me’. It’s on my TBR. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for this!😍 Agreed with literally everything you said so I must say you've got great taste when it comes to Poirot😅🤣👏👏

They seem to have changed the covers, they now have photos on the front. I don't hate the new covers, but these ones are so much nicer!
sadly I don't think they are, I think they have been replaced now :/
I agree Sad Cypress is very underrated.
Yay!! so glad you love it too :)
Can you please tell me anything about after the funeral?
Have you read the Sophie Hannah books on Poirot?
Yes I have, sadly not a fan
@@lilsvintageworld Oh really, why did you not like her Poirot books out of interest?
I'm currently reading one so would love to hear your opinion

I love the covers of these books so much!!
Can u please do a review on death on the nile, dumb witness, and murder on the orient express please?
Of course :)
Just finished reading "Murder on the links" and now it's time to unravel " poirot's Christmas".
