mairiairi 's review for:
The Case of the Middle-Aged Wife
by Agatha Christie
4 stars for being a good short story. Such an interesting book - you think you have someone figured out and then they completely change (specifically Claude). You think they're unhappy about xyz and then it turns out it's about something else entirely. Christie is great at keeping things lively, it's a fun story to read.
The first time I wrote a review for this book, I asked: "(also is the Miss Lemon secretary in this book also the Miss Lemon secretary for Hercule Poirot bc that's so cool. And genius.)" and apparently it is! I love how Christie pulls characters from other books and writes them into short stories, it makes the world seem very 3D and real, as you interact with people from other "parts" of Christie's Poirot or Marple world.
