I think this was my first Agatha Christie I ever read. 6th grade on vacation, the only kid among grownups those few days. I love Tommy and Tuppence.

It's amazing how well the writing holds up after 90 years. Very good mystery.

I loved loved this. It is like it was written for me perfectly. The mystery was fun but also I just adored the characters. The mystery, the relationships, the humour, were all perfect for me. I can’t say this book is perfect for everyone but I just had such a good time reading it, so I love it

Very interesting story! It took a few chapters to get used to the old-timey language, but I managed. Tuppence and Tommy’s adventures kept me on my toes!

This was a poor kindle version of the original. Whoever typed this book into the kindle did not do a good job. Tons of wording changed (Instead of “Tuppence! Old bean!” was typed “Tuppence! Old legume!”

I love Tommy and Tuppence! I can't believe I hadn't read their first one until now!
