Ich liebe diese Frau! Egal, in welche Rollen sie schlüpfte, sie war in allen beeindruckend.
I love this woman! No matter what roles she slipped into, she was impressive in all of them.
J'adore cette femme ! Peu importe le rôle qu'elle a endossé, elle était impressionnante dans tous les rôles.

I have every one of Agatha Christie’s around 113 novels and play adaptations (paper editions), and have enjoyed reading most of them more than once. Her books are way better than watching a condensed film version, so even if you’ve seen some of the TV series or movies, it is well worth trying some of her books.
At least three are also in the public domain on Project Gutenberg now, so can be found for free – The Mysterious Affair at Styles, Murder on the Links, and The Secret Adversary.
The linked article gives a short list of some of the best to try first, but I don’t think I’ve read a single one of her books that I’ve not thoroughly enjoyed reading.

I have every one of the 100+ books she published and have enjoyed rereading them over the years (I'm blessed with forgetting the ending of books). Nothing does justice like reading the actual books though, as the mind is way more powerful of conjuring up the imagery than any movie or TV series. Even if you have only seen the acclaimed David Suchet series you should still try reading some of the books.
Some of the best to read are: Murder on the Orient Express, The Murder of Richard Ackroyd, And Then There Were None, The ABC Murders, The Mysterious Affair At Styles, Murder At The Vicarage, and of course the longest running play The Mousetrap.
There is good reason why she was known as the Queen of Crime.
