I went to the library today and picked up a few Agatha Christie books. I specifically tried to make sure that I hadn't read these before. Alas! They changed the name on one of them! Changed the name! I read it anyway.
Book #65 - What Mrs. McGillicuddy Saw! by Agatha Christie - AKA 4:50 from Paddington. First off, I hate when covers of books get changed and I think I haven't read it before but I have and I just didn't recognize it. That happens all the time with Nora Roberts books. If her plots weren't all so similar, reading the back synopsis might help. The point of this is that changing the cover is bad enough, but changing the title? Woe! I was CERTAIN I hadn't read this one before. I would have sworn it to all major and minor deities. And I would have been wrong. WRONG! However, I enjoyed my re-read so it wasn't an entire waste. Oh, the plot? Miss Marple sets out to prove that her friend did indeed see a murder on a train. Despite all evidence to the contrary. Or lack of evidence, as the case may be.
I don't think I'm going to be going on any 2 mile walks with Hailey and Bailey tomorrow. My legs are a little achy after the last two ginormous walks we've gone on. Maybe we'll do some baking. Orange bread sounds good. I don't think my bananas are properly ripened for banana bread. Hmm. Orange bread it is!
That is all.
Later.
