Update: Reread 2/9/25 I really think I'd read a whole book of Hastings having conversations with dogs. It brings me joy.
Hastings is back! Something about his books are just cozier and more fun for me now. And I loved his little narrations of conversations with the dog. So cute. Very humorous. He and Poirot are the most fun as a team to me. Anyway, I really had no idea who did it til Poirot did his big reveal. It was a good one too. Though a bit sad after all. But I definitely liked this one very much. All the family drama was interesting. And I always enjoy Poirot's interviews. Another good one!

This book is really important to me now. But not because of the story. So this review will be drastically biased, and I will explain why in a moment.
If you follow my reviews, it's no surprise to you that I am a super Christie fan, and yes, I'll admit, in my experience reading her books she can do no wrong! Every book I've read has been fantastic or at least worth reading. I love her style, her characters, and her in general. I actually have a poster of her on my wall, no word of a lie.
This book was no exception. I was caught off guard by the ending, and the adventure of getting to the ending was worth the read as well. But, in all honesty, this should not be a five star read, it should be four. Maybe less if I wasn't such a fan boy.
This past week has been really hard for me and my family. I spent more time at the hospital than at home, I slept maybe 6 hours in 3 days, and I had to work and do a job interview on top of that. It's been really stupid. And to be quite honest with ya'll, I know that I rate with my heart more often than not. Reading this book is all the kept me sane all week. You may disagree, but for me, that's worth 5 stars.
