IMHO Christie always withholds the most important piece of information till the very end. So it's very hard to solve the crime while reading. I recommend G.K. Chesterton (1874-1936)'s "Father Brown" detective series, which makes light and fun reading. 中文的有高罗佩的《狄公案》。有中国公案小说的风格又没有太多封建糟粕,这个标准 要达到还是挺难的;要是外国人写的就更牛了。

it is too bad! My books never over-due because I always renew it. xixi.. I even have the book I borrowed two years ago when I arrived here. It is about some Chinese dialects but I never read it. Just too lazy to bring them to the library..
that copy classmate,

"girl in hyacinth blue", a novel made up of short fictions, threaded by a piece of vermeer's painting. each chapter is related yet can be read seperately. pseudo-historical, lightly suspenseful, no heavy romance.
