I finished Agatha Christie's The Big Four. I am about to start the next book in the Hercule Poirot series The Mystery of the Blue Train.

Are you reading Christie in sequence, EvilFishy?

Night Shift- Stephen King's first set of short stories and they are just brillant. From what I've read it might be his best work yet.

I'm attempting to read Christie in sequence, Zaz, but it isn't working as well as I would have hoped. I'm missing some books here and there.

I finished The Mystery of the Blue Train. It was a pretty good one. I have decided to take a little time off of Agatha Christie novels to read Blinding Fall by Christopher Rice and Star Wars Heir to the Empire Volume 1 by Timothy Zahn. I have all of the other Christopher Rice novels and hope this one is just as good. This is also my first time reading a Star Wars novel, so it should be interesting. I heard that this was one of the best series.

I agree with you. I've reread the stories in that collection again and again and love them just as much each time around.

Right now I'm reading Cell by Stephen King. This book differs from most of his stuff in the sense that it jumps right in to the action and then explains things whereas his other books tend to take a while to build up and get "exciting". Very good, I'm very into it.

I've got so many books waiting on my shelf, it took me quite a while last night to pick out a new one to start. I decided to start on From Here To Eternity; just got Chapter 1 finished last night.

Finished The New Essential Chronology (riddled with typos and only ever calling starships exactly by name, so anytime the Falcon is referenced, it is: Milenium Falcon blasted off, etc. making zero sense in the process).

Started:

Fools Die, by Mario Puzo.
