Hercule Poirot has done it again or should I say... Agatha Christie. The devil is truly in the details.

It is very obvious who dunnit while but I still could not put this book down. I really liked the story and all the characters involved.

I didn’t enjoy this one as much as “And Then There Were None,” mostly because it takes so long for the murder to happen (maybe about halfway through?). There is a lot of set up to give you a longer list of suspects, but it was just too slow in the beginning.

The ending is explained and makes sense. You don’t finish the book with any questions, which I appreciated.

There are several romantic pairings in this one by the end that seem unnecessary, but whatever

Once again, Agatha Christie delivers on a book that gives you a love and compassion for each character. Twists occur every three pages (to be more realistic than saying every other page) and the crime takes half the book to happen. When the culprit is revealed, it is the most unexpected character in the whole book (though, it isn't actually Poirot). Highly recommend to those who enjoy a good mystery and to those looking to get into the mystery genre.
