An enjoyable read! I found the mystery interesting, the characters fun, and the lack of a main detective surprisingly refreshing, even though the classic Christie final act reveal still took place. All the classic hallmarks of her work present, and yet a very fun story. Would recommend.

Oh, Christie...racist, sexist, and problematic sex stuff to boot! A classic.

This book was pretty good. I liked the ending, although it was a little strange. It was kind of cool that there was no actual detective in this one. I would suggest it to most people.
Good ending. However, without a consistent POV detective character, the story struggled to maintain a good pace and contained a lot of passages that mainly consisted of characters anxiously ruminating on who the killer might be. While this felt true to life for how the characters would behave, it got repetitive and didn't make for interesting reading.
