Do you like nursery rhymes? I always enjoyed them as a kid and reciting them with my own children. I love how Agatha Christie incorporates them into her fiction.
Dead bodies turn up everywhere for Hercule Poirot. He goes to the dentist one day and his dentist ends up dead. Was it suicide or was murder involved?
My thoughts on this audiobook:
· I read One, Two, Buckle My Shoe by Agatha Christie for my August selection for #ReadChristie2025. The August theme is medicine or medical professionals. The victim is a dentist, Mr. Morley.
· This is the twenty third Hercule Poirot novel. I think it would be fun in the future to read all the Hercule Poirot novels in a row.
· Hugh Fraser was a great audiobook narrator as usual.
· It was interesting that this novel has a nursery rhyme title like other Christie books. The buckles on shoes do play a part in the plot! This novel was first published in the United States in 1941 as the Patriotic Murders and then in 1955 as An Overdose of Death before finally being published with the original UK title.
· I did not guess the ending of this one.
Overall, One, Two,
Buckle My Shoe by Agatha Christie was a short read that kept me intrigued.
