 We made a New Year's resolution to the Christie community to keep in touch more often, via Facebook and Twitter, and we like to think that we've kept that promise. To kick 2013 off we asked you to tell us the strangest place you've read an Agatha Christie novel - you did not disappoint!
Charline Kelly - "In surgery. I was having a minor procedure and thought Agatha would keep my mind off what the doc was doing, he couldn't believe how calm i was... I didn't tell him i had to read the same 2 paragraphs about 8 times!!"
Joan Casey - "During a cyclone in North Queensland, in the late 1950's.... Was so scared that I kept thinking to myself "should I look up who-done-it," just to satisfy myself that I was right, in case I didn't survive the cyclone!?,!"
Emma Hultgren - "I'm only 23 so I have a number of years to find a weirder place to read Agatha Christie, but so far the weirdest was up a ladder, I was holding it for my dad when he was cleaning out the gutters around our home"
Charikleia Vlastou - "In a courtroom, waiting for my case to be heard."

 Between the 1.2 million of us we've decided that Dame Maggie Smith should make the best screen Miss Marple (should she ever feel inclined), we've been introduced to Agagrams - an Anagram puzzle of one of Agatha's story titles or characters, Susmita Dasgupta shared a photo of her living room arranged as Poirot would have arranged it, Yon Vehmas shared their fetching homemade Poirot jumper and Alisha Taylor shared some Poirot eggs (eggs with moustaches of course). We're also on Twitter @QueenofCrime every day so drop us a line anytime and we'll be sure to get back to you.
