perjacxis 's review for:

The Big Four by Agatha Christie
2.0

That was a weird one and I probably wouldn't recommend it unless you want to read everything Christie has ever written. It felt more like Christe's earlier standalone novels than a Poirot story. I really enjoy these standalones but the story didn't work that well for a Poirot novel.
I've heard that these plots used to be short stories which explains why the transitions from chapter to chapter were sometimes awkward. All in all, I'm a bit disappointed. Some things were just too ridiculous and implausible.
