Another successful mystery from Dame Agatha Christie! Hercule Poirot goes on vacation, but there is evil under the sun and before long his holiday is disturbed by death and a new case to solve.
Once again I did not come close to being able to guess the ending. The setting was great, a remote beach hotel which made me want to go on vacation (even though I don't like being in the sun lol). Some fairly interesting characters as well! This book seemed to have less humorous moments than others, which was unfortunate as I really look forward to that. But the plot was very intriguing and I was very satisfied by the ending!
This was also the first time I've used highlight tabs in a fiction book and it was really useful for this kind of story. I used different colors to mark funny lines, interesting quotes, and clues that I picked up on. It really helped me keep track of the characters and story, so I'll be doing it again for my next Agatha Christie!

A really great whodunit! (I did know who'd done it as I had seen the film) but still well written characters, a wonderful romping plot and in all a brilliant read.
I personally feel this shows Hercule Poirot using his little grey cells at his best.

Muerte bajo el sol - Agatha Christie: 4/5⭐
No saben cuanto me encanta volver a leer a mi detective favorito, don Hercules Poirot. Nuevamente demostrandome que mejor me sigo dedicando a mi profesión porque de detective me moriría de hambre.
Esta vez, no dude de todos, tenia un par de personajes muy específicos como sospechosos del crimen, pero como dije arriba, no fueron esos, y la manera en la que Poirot resuelve el crimen mientras vacaciona es algo que me deja impresionada, y es que como es su característica, nos cuenta como llegó a su conclusión y eso es brillante.
Las pistas estaban ahí, pero armar el rompecabezas era lo complicado, al mejor estilo de Agatha Christie. Me gustaron los personajes, el misterio en cada página, el plot twist, y en general, que me mantuvo on the edge todo el libro.
Frases favoritas: "La maldad acecha en todas partes bajo el sol."
"El cerebro no sirve para nada cuando lo ciega a uno la pasión."
Agatha, you did it again.
