i really liked "the moving finger" and wanted to read more of agatha christie. i expected it to take some time to get interesting, as in that book, but i couldn't imagine how long. the murder was commited in the first few pages and still it didn't get interesting or tense until the last few pages. most of the book was just poirot going around talking to people. and while collecting clues is great, at some point you lost track of what they were actually all about.
