This one is a strong contender for my favorite Poirot mystery. I love the movie with David Suchet and it was just as charming and interesting in it's original form. 
I did feel sorry for the way Alexander Bonaparte was described as "too stupid" to plan and commit these murders. I think this one is the smartest of Christie's works with hiding a specific murder with multiple others.

there wasn't quite enough poirot in this poirot novel for me this time round but it's still always a good time with agatha christie <3 

p.s. I couldn't stop thinking about how when I lived in st andrews I qualified as an abc murder victim....glad they didn't get to s
