I am going to participate in the following Book Challenge:

Copied from: At Pemberley

 

The Marple Poirot Holmes Challenge

“Nothing really beats a good old Agatha Christie mystery or an Arthur Conan Doyle masterpiece. I’ve loved Miss Marple, Hercule Poirot and Sherlock Holmes all my life and I doubt we’ll find a detective surpassing the unexpected genius of Miss Marple, the exemplary ‘little grey cells’ of the Belgian detective Hercule Poirot, and of course, the master himself – Sherlock Holmes.”
Rules:
1. This  challenge is from  January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2010.
2. You will have to read a minimum of 6 books in total: two Miss Marple mysteries, two Sherlock Holmes mysteries and two Hercule Poirot mysteries. You can of course, read more than 6 books if you want to.
3. The books you have chosen for this challenge can overlap with other challenges.
The Books I have Chosen (subject to change!):
1. 4:50 from Paddington (Marple)
2. Sleeping Murder (Marple)
3. Murder on the Orient Express (Poirot)
4. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd (Poirot)
5. The Sign of Four (Holmes)
6. A Study in Scarlet (Holmes)

      Kals- I tried to leave a comment on your blog last night, and it wouldn’t work. I don’t know if it finally showed up or not, but it was giving me all kinds of problems. :( So, sorry if there is no comment!

      Thanks for making this challenge! It is awesome!
