Death on the Nile by Agatha Christie - Excellent
Anyone that knows me, knows I love Agatha Christie's books. Always my go to comfort read, but I picked this one to read as part of my #2016classicschallenge. Whilst it doesn't appear on any of the 'lists' of great books, it should.
I doubt there is anyone that doesn't know the plot and 'whodonit', there have been at least two film/tv adaptations that are regularly repeated on tv. Nevertheless, the book is slightly different, additional characters, slight changes to the red herrings we are thrown, and unlike the adaptations, the continuity on places visited is actually correct.
Beautifully written with all the plot twists, characterisation and description you would expect from Agatha Christie. Well worth reading.

Thank you, the book has arrived!
Thanks for this classic edition of a classic whodunit... one of the Ms Christie's best, in my opinion, and worth re-reading.
And thanks for the postcard and bookmark as well.

Journal Entry 6 by bookfrogster at Edinburgh, Scotland United Kingdom on Saturday, February 24, 2018
I can't remember when I read this last but it was a VERY long time ago, so I'd forgotten parts of the story, such as the whole Tim and Rosalie thing. I LOVED the way Cornelia showed her true mettle towards the end.
Thanks so much for sending me this one bookworm-lady, it was a good choice.
