I wouldn't be surprised if someone did write to correct her on that. And I'm sure authors are relieved that I don't comment on every error I notice. lolDebbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13898393424567867155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401486042977988020.post-39495648200494979932012-09-22T13:31:36.398-05:002012-09-22T13:31:36.398-05:00I just read Mrs. McGinty's Dead and thought yo...I just read Mrs. McGinty's Dead and thought your readers might find this bit of trivia LOL funny! In the book, there is an author, Ariadne Oliver, who supposedly is a caricature of Christie. Mrs. Oliver makes a comment that "...in one book I made a blowpipe a foot long and it's really six feet! Someone wrote from a museum to tell me so." Now I wonder if that really happened to Christie after she published Death in the Air?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401486042977988020.post-46080029648758172802012-08-25T10:50:32.925-05:002012-08-25T10:50:32.925-05:00Jennifer and Donna,

Thanks to your reviews, I've found a lot of clean books and have shared them with others on my website, comfycozybooks.com This was a locked-room type of mystery and I had a sneaking suspicion about whodunit but didn't figure it out until the very end. Good book, highly recommend!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401486042977988020.post-20174406325576398822012-07-05T22:48:47.912-05:002012-07-05T22:48:47.912-05:00Just wanted to leave a quick comment to thank you ...Just wanted to leave a quick comment to thank you for the thoughtful reviews you post on Amazon! I've never read much fiction and am trying to get into it, and have had a hard time finding books that aren't filled with trashy content. Reading through your review history has helped me find some great reads. Thanks so much!Jennifer @ Conversion Diaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11894992378619176830noreply@blogger.com
