A review by amrita_yadav
The Mysterious Affair at Styles by Agatha Christie

4.0

This was pretty good. It's a classic mystery novel for a reason, I have seen these kind of plots used in so many K drama and anime. Fun fact, I saw Susune in Classroom of the Elite reading Agatha Christie book. I guess that was the writer's way of showing his inspiration.
The story went like this: introduction, twist, twist, twist, twist, full-circle back and reveal. Everything was convincing, nothing felt forced. Why do I imagine the detective Poirot looks like the Thompson and Thompson twins from Tintin?
Then there is the question of my predictions and honestly I was wrong, wrong. wrong and wrong again. It was like I think find something and by the time I time I try to pin someone down as the culprit, swirl, swirl, swirl, like someone mixing sugar in coffee before it settles down. The writer just spins the facts around and now you are looking at someone else as the suspects. Nobody is really off the hook for most part of the book.
Great read. Could see myself reading it again. :)
