These short stories were great to read! They were surprisingly deep for how short they were, which made it really nice to read.
Sometimes there were many characters which made it slightly hard to follow, but I still liked every story!

A collection of short stories, some of which I'd rate higher than others, so 3.75 feels like a fair average.

Another excellent collection of Christie's mysteries. Some are stronger than others (There's one where I think the title rather gives away the identity of the murderer?) but there are some real classics here as well including "Murder in the Mews" and "The Witness for the Prosecution" - both of which are marvellous.
I will say that this collection perhaps feels a little less seasonal than the other anthologies. Although many are set in Autumn, the vast majority don't really have a seasonal feel which the other anthologies managed to create.
Still, you can't ever really go too far wrong with Christie, so this is still an excellent option for anyone looking to curl up with some cosy crime.
