• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

It was entertaining and surprisingly breezy for a book with so many murders. Agatha Christie is a classic for a reason. That being said, the writing is definitely distinctly of a time and place (including some racist undertones in the discussion of the Egyptians)and the plot complications feel contrived rather than natural. 

This was a book club pick.
