Cool a slump...

I'd never thought of it in those terms before but I suppose 'slump' is as good as any descriptive term. Yeah, me too, I'm also experiencing a slump. That's why I'm doing the Harry Potter re-readings and now, as well, I've begun reading the Agatha Christie books that I've never read. I've only read And Then There Were None, and that was because it's one of my all-time favorite movies -- the 1945 movie. I'm starting with the Agatha Christie books I've seen movies of first. Anyway they're, to me, what you're calling 'a cozy mystery'. I believe that my slump is related to the release date of Dresden #15 being announced as way off in the last week of May!

*[inaccuracy alert] Whoops! I also have read Death on the Nile and I've not yet seen a movie of Murder on the Orient Express.
