7 Agatha Christie Books to Read in the Fall
Spooky season is here and there is no better time to read a mystery! Fall is the best time of year to cozy up and read Agatha Christie and I have just the reading list for you.

Agatha Christie’s Miss Marple Books in Order
While Hercule Poirot may be Agatha Christie’s most notorious sleuth, Miss Marple is a close second. Miss Marple is an unlikely, but astute detective. She’s an elderly woman from the small fictional village of St. Mary Mead, and she solves murders as a hobby wherever she goes. Miss Marple, having bright eyes and world class knitting skills, has put her excellent judge of character to use in many a quaint village, and has cleverly gotten to the bottom of murders of all sorts.
Agatha Christie’s Hercule Poirot Novels in Order
Not only is Hercule Poirot Agatha Christie’s most famous detective, he was also her first. Christie’s first published novel and still one of the most popular among fans today, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, featured the now famed Belgian Detective, and she continued to write stories for him throughout her entire career. The final book in the Poirot legacy, Curtain, was published just one year before her death (though she had written it some years earlier).
That very first Agatha Christie novel is now over 100 years old and is still being published, along with the other 38 Poirot novels and many more short stories!
