aside from that, this was a less enjoyable Christie because I was able to guess the plot in the first 30ish pages. however, i really enjoyed the last 20 pages where we get the interactions between Poirot and Jacqueline after the murderer is revealed.

So as of right now I’ve read books 1-11, Hercule Poirot’s Christmas, Hallowe’en Party, and probably 1-2 dozen short stories, and Death on the Nile is definitely far above the others in terms of complexity. There is quite literally over half a dozen crimes committed in this one! I do not have a logical or meticulous mind, so to me it still feels like maybe she’s just pulling facts and clues out of a hat, but damn do I enjoy reading it. Of course all of these mysteries involve crime, so you’re reading a lot of murder, thievery, debauchery, but wow this one in particular was very very dark.
Why does it seem like Hercule can never take a dang vacation? His little grey cells are just too powerful.
