The world's best-selling fiction writer of all time is Agatha Christie! Her books have sold over 2 billion copies and have been translated into over 100 languages.

Did you know that Christie was the center of a mysterious event herself? She disappeared on the evening of December 3, 1926, her car later found abandoned. After a nation-wide manhunt, she reappeared 10 days later on December 14th. Christie never talked about her disappearance. To this day, it remains a mystery why she did it.

This week, do you know what was the first book printed on moveable type? Take a guess by going over to our Book Trivia Poll.

What is everyone reading this week? Alas, I failed spectacularly in my goals from last week. I got distracted because I discovered the comic book app on my Kindle and have been catching up on back issues of the latest DC event (Rebirth). But I have a holiday weekend coming up and I have plans.

Do you have reading plans for this holiday weekend?

Charlotte Brontë A Fiery Heart by Claire Harman Life Debt (Star Wars Aftermath, #2) by Chuck Wendig Ms. Marvel, Vol. 1 No Normal by G. Willow Wilson Dark Night A True Batman Story by Paul Dini

My plans for this week and the coming weekend are to finish the last five Abbi Glines adult fiction that I haven't read yet and then move on...

I'm currently reading Pet Sematary -just because- and if I finish it - it shall be my first completed Stephen King novel - I have attempted Misery and It in the past...

I have also gotten a free trial of Amazon Unlimited - which allows you to read/listen to ebooks for 9.99 a month - we will see how I like it and if I will keep it...

I have several books in the line up -

Ingrid Hurst (bookrdr) | 285 comments Just got back from Alaska! I read a mindless sci fi romance & also finished In a Dark Dark Wood. That was a good book! Now I want to read her other book.
I started The Eleventh Plague & am also reading The Testing.
On the cruise, an author gave a lecture w/ his daughter. He had taken her to the wilderness of Alaska when she was 15 & wrote a book about it. Excited to start that one once I can find it in all the unpacking!
