Me gustó bastante el misterio, muy ingeniosos como lo van enhebrando todo para revelación del final. 

Mi único pero es que Poirot no les haya dejado en claro que los entiende perfectamente, incluso si luego va a salir con sus cosas de que la ley y demás. 

La justicia alcanzó a Cassetti de una forma u otra, yo hasta hubiera ayudado activamente a los involucrados en lugar preocuparme por quién es el culpable. El tipo merecía una muerte más horrible.

Hercule Poirot, stop thirsting over your murder suspects challenge (impossible)
Also congrats to Agatha Christie for having a more diverse cast and progressive storytelling IN THE 30S than almost anything until like 5 years ago

 Book nineteen of my personal read through of Agatha Christie in (American) publication order.

 I wasn't sure how this would hold up when I've watched the movie recently enough to know the main twist from the very beginning, but this story was in fact, still fantastic. (Maybe the audio book and having a great narrator actually  helped with this?) The characters are all interesting regardless of the outcome of the story, and there were one or two small details about the resolution I'd forgotten, so I still enjoyed those reveals. 

 Some of the more lauded Agatha Christie novels I think are not among her best works, but in this case, the book deserves every bit of fame it has.

I loved this book. The ending was predictable towards the end, but I had no idea when starting. Very shocking and overall an amazing murder mystery.
