Two books - which one first?

I have two second-hand books to read and can't decide which one I should go for first, so I am asking you lovely people to make my mind up for me, pretty please.

The Camomile Lawn - Mary Wesley
Death on the Nile - Agatha Christie

I love both those books, so either one would be a great one to start with. Death on the Nile probably wins by a whisker for me though.

Thank you @Dozycuntlaters

Death on the Nile, because its a quicker read!

Shorter one first

Oh what a treat to be able to read an Agatha Christie for the first time! I’ve read them all hundreds of times and will never know that feeling of newness and not knowing whodunnit. Savour it!

I've read several Agatha Christie novels, but not that particular one. Seen both films of it though, so whodunnit won't come as a massive surprise.😂

Another vote for Agatha Christie.

Have you read Sherlock Holmes? Listening to Stephen Fry read Sherlock Holmes on audio is pure heaven.

Oh, I love Death on the Nile - one of my favourite Agatha Christie’s. I’d definitely start with that!
