Charming. Review on Moving Finger, The - Agatha Christie

A book which weaves the kind of old world charm, that mesmerizes you and makes you a of part itself.

A book you would like to come back to whenever you want live through an adventurous fairy tale. Two love stories entwined in a murder mystery, it is one of the best Agatha Christie books I have come across. Its characters interesting and full of surprise intrigue you and involve you in their simple lives; some of them you simply can't help falling in love with, others you admire, dislike, empathise with or pity. In short they all affect you in some way. You start observing their quirks and kinks and relating to them as if they were around you.

This ageless and timeless book is definitely worth a read. It can make you smile...cry...frown... sigh...turn pages in anticipation...and sit back in relief at the end of it. Though a bit slow paced, it can move you in innumerable ways.

If you have time at hand and no one around to disturb you, pick it up and trust me you wouldn't put it down till the end!
