A review by mckaylaboyd
Death on the Nile and Other Hercule Poirot Mysteries by Agatha Christie
5.0
Owned TBR Reading Challenge 18/26
An Anthology/Collection
The best Christie anthology of the three! I loved each mystery. Great slow burns with incredibly interesting setups and psychology.
Death on the Nile
5 Stars
Wow. This has got to be my second favorite Christie I’ve read. The build up, the weave of all the different clues and red herrings, an eerie and psycho character (won’t says who but, wow, I can’t wait to see the actor play them). This is one that, even if you guess it (not that I did), you can’t help but enjoy.
The ABC Murders
4.5 Stars.
A fun, serial killer premise. Although it wasn't my favorite reveal, there was a specific character study that was awesome.
Five Little Pigs
4.5 stars
The use of the nursery rhyme didn't really match the tone of the rest of the mystery for me, but I loved the idea of taking on a cold case. The inclusion of five suspects and a seemingly open-and-shut case allowed for a very focused narrative. Probably one of my favorites.
