On vacation for a couple weeks. Thinking of reading Agatha Christie. Where do I start?

And Then There Were None!
Start with the best, And Then There Were None. Loved it.
And Then There Were None was all checked out at my library so I picked up The Murder of Roger Ackroyd today. So far I’m enjoying it.
Do NOT read ahead in The Murder of Roger Ackroyd! I lent my copy to my niece, & made sure I paper clipped the last several chapters together! ?
I loved this one. It’s my favorite
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd was good. Love Peirot
Wow this is exactly what happened to me about a month ago
It was an enjoyable mystery?
I have And Then There Were None on a transfer request. Which other AG would you suggest after that? Should I just go through the Poirot or Mrs Marple series?
Loved any Mrs. Marple story!
Anything miss Marple I love her ??
And Then There Were None!
Any of them
The murder of Roger Ackroyd
I think this is her best book.
Definitely her best!
Yes it is! I have read about 30s of Christies’ novel and this one is the best….
By The Pricking Of My Thumbs is a great one. A Murder Is Announced is also great. Death Comes As The End. Actually you could just blindly grab any title off the shelf and boom got yourself a great read. Although those three are amongst my faves and I have read all of her titles. Enjoy ?
Loved By the Pricking of My Thumbs.
Her first novel is The Mysterious Affair at Styles (Poirot). However the order doesn’t really matter since the characters are always freshly introduced in every story.
Currently listening to Christie’s The Under Dog and Other Stories: A Hercule Poirot Collection – it’s a collection of short stories. (I downloaded a copy from the public library via Hoopla.)
And Then There Were None was the first Christie book I read and I was hooked!
I love this website. They list books by author and in order of publication. Here’s Agatha Christie:

And Then There Were None.
You can start anywhere
I read all her books in order as written when I was in high school.
I read Absent in Spring which she wrote under a pseudonym, it was very good and not a murder mystery.
Murder of Roger Akroyd is her best but it’s atypical.
It’s an Amazon Kindle special for $1.99 at the moment. Christie’s books are rarely discounted, so I snapped this up. I actually hadn’t read it before.
@Marilee thank you so much. Going to go buy it right now.
ABC Murders
Wow, thank you everyone.
And Then There Were None
ABC
Mysterious Affair at @Styles
That is the first!
And Then There Were None
I decided to read them all, so I began with the first and read chronologically.
