Agatha Christie's self love

Every few years, since I was 10, I pick up an Agatha Christie novel. I started reading "The Body in the Library" a couple days ago.

One of her characters says, ". . .Do you like detective stories? I do. I read them all and I've got autographs from Dorothy Sayers and Agatha Christie and Dickson Carr ad H.C. Bailey."

In other words, she named herself as one of the most renowned mystery writers in her own novel. Hurray for self loving (even if it is sort of obnoxious).
