Re-read this one as apparently it's the inspiration for the upcoming Kenneth Branagh Hercule Poirot movie A Haunting in Venice. I assume it will be quite different on screen to the book, as in the novel there's no haunting and no Venice! But there is Ariadne Oliver, who is a stand in for the real life Agatha! Always enjoy reading these novels, time and again!
another lovely work by Agatha, I enjoyed it a lot.
the characters felt so real in the conversation especially the annoying parts where women are agitated and speak much nonsense and you have to be patient to get through to the actual info (I'm a woman myself)
it was a bit disturbing the motive and the deed in the novel, but very interesting referral to mythology and theatre characters, I think I will go back to read Macbeth.
one of the characters had very interesting depth and view and I wanted the novel to explore more about him, sadly it did not, as well as we did not get much explanation about some of the plot points like the boys and the plan.

My Agatha Christie kick is concluded. The ending was predictable and the story unfolding through interviews and commentary by Poroit was not enjoyable

Graphic: Murder
This isn’t on a par with her others books. The dialogue has much repetition and the ending is predictable.
