ADDICTED TO READING? ME?

In May, 2014, I started a personal project that I had wanted to do for a long time. I decided to read Agatha Christie's whole body of work. Believe it or not, I finished in January 2015. Now I read a lot and pretty fast, but this woman wrote for AGES. She was born in the late 1800s, and died in the mid-1900s, and she wrote all the time. And the variety! I had read several of her most famous Poirot and Miss Marple books, so I was incredibly surprised to find horror stories, spy stories, about WW I, WWII, the cold war. And it was almost like a history lesson. As I read the books I could see the changes in expressions, language itself, and description of clothes. I strongly recommend trying this out, it was a great experience.
