One Hercule Poirot story and one Harley Quinn story and a bunch of others. It was nice to read some Christie stories that were new to me. I enjoyed it.
joshuanovalis's review against another edition
Some of these stories were more superficial or forgettable, but I greatly enjoyed “The Edge,” “The Lonely God,” “The Mystery of the Spanish Chest,” and “The Harlequin Tea Set.” Definitely worth sitting down with on a quiet Sunday afternoon.

It was a good book. Reading the different stories was like a palate cleanser in between denser books.

I usually LOVE Agatha Christie books and I enjoyed this one immensely as well except, there were a couple of the stories I didn't like too much. The harlequin tea set was my favorite one.

An enjoyable collection of short stories by Agatha Christie. So by definition, I loved them.

Love 'And Then There Were None.' Like Jane Marple. Not Poirot.
Poirot is the best of the lot. The rest appear...mmm...to be charitable--unfinished.
Maybe there's a lot here for her diehard fans, but certainly not for those just discovering her.
