Never read them. :? I've come close to picking up copies of And Then There Were None and Murder on the Orient Express, but I keep getting sidetracked by Sherlock Holmes and Perry Mason.

Sleeping Murder,
Third Girl,
Cat Among the Pigeons
Hallowe'en Party
(These are the ones whose names I remember)

Actually, I read them all so long ago I can't remember the names of some of my favorites--someone got poisoned with digitalis, someone was trying to spell the word "posessed" a bunch of different ways and they thought it meant that the person who was murdered was possessed. There was one where somebody from the city was being criticized for wearing makeup in a country village and she defended herself by saying the shade was "Country Tan." I was a kid when I read all these because my mom loved them.
