I’ve seen lots of Agatha Christie reading around the blogosphere lately and thought I’d combine Christie titles with my favorite game on m-w.com, Dictionary Devil. Each number is a title of a Christie mystery and the word choices will each be used only once. I’m seeing lots of guessing in your future 🙂
You have until noon Saturday to submit your answers as a comment. Comment will be hidden until I post the answers. No Googling!
This round lasts til the end of March and the person with the most points will win a B&N gift card (total $ based on # of total participants, so please play) and a randomly selected participant will win a fun prize from me.
Have fun and Good Luck!

3. Appointment with Death
4. Murder is Easy
5. Curtains
6. Five Little Pigs

1 black coffee
2 death on the nile
3 appointment with death

5 curtain
6 five little pigs
7 the mousetrap
