lauraew333 's review for:
Poirot Investigates
by Agatha Christie
This is part of an Agatha Christie review round up (part three).
As much as I wanted to like this, I just couldn't get into the short story construction. My favorite part of Agatha Christie books is the build up and the continued mystery as I try to figure out the killer alongside Poirot and Hastings. These mysteries are the definition of short and sweet which makes them good for something to read before bed but for me, they were just too quick. I love complex mysteries so these were just meh for me. There is more of an opportunity to get to know Poirot and Hasting's personalities, though, which I thoroughly enjoyed!
The Final Verdict: Short and sweet = not my cup of tea.
3 stars
