The Syndicate

I started re-reading 4.50 from Paddington by Agatha Christie a few weeks back, thinking that I'll get back into it eventually.

I love the Iliad. I like the Odyssey. I didn't like Ulysses. I hope you do, though!

I initially had to read the Iliad over the school holidays as a school assignment. It was the most boring thing I'd ever read, so I put it off until about a week before school started again. I picked it up again and for some reason this time I absolutely fell in love with it. I'd read the rest of his work if I ever had the patience to go look for it it in a book store.

It's a pretty fucking great book. Has a zillion plot twists and like every book from Agatha, it's engineered to make you fail to guess them. Not my favorite book from her though, because they are all amazing. But great.

I started to re-read 4.50 from Paddington a while back. I decided I was going to buy more of her collection, but I never had the chance.
