I've been meaning to do this for a loooong time. I've been slowly collecting all of Agatha Christie's novels for awhile. She's my favorite author and And Then There Were None (as some of you could've guessed) is my favorite book

HOWEVER! Two things have kept me from collecting/reading all of her work. 1. I'm a horrible reader. Just way too slow, I can't churn books out like others and I also don't particularly want to. 2. I've always envisioned a nice complete collection of her whodunnits on a couple of shelves, all under the same publication. THAT has been my biggest hold up. I wanted a nice uniform row of her books published by the same company so they'd look super cohesive. That was my plan for a long time so I started buying under the same publication. But recently I'm like....fuck it? The publication I was buying under was the most common one that I'd see at book stores so it'd be the most attainable. But lately I've grown to hate the way the covers look. And then I started to pick up some nice vintage/used versions and I like those so much better. So we're going for a mix matched collection here. In fact, whenever I found vintage/older versions of her books that I already own under the sleek newer publication...I'm probably gonna buy them and swap them out

If you couldn't tell by now, this is about to be a personal thread where I expect no interaction and that's fine, I'm mostly gonna ramble to myself. Gonna be using this thread to track what I own + what I've read + what I still need to buy (so many). She's got 66 total detective novels, I might own about 20? Tbd, gonna log them all soon. Making this thread now as a placeholder

Stargate! Feel free to join me if you wish. I suspect your collection trumps mine
