Thank you to William Morrow for the gifted copy of Hercule Poirot’s Christmas! Folks, this is a very solid, bingeable little mystery that I thoroughly enjoyed - and believe it or not, got me all in the mood for Christmas! 😁

I read the majority of this book in a day, and it was a day I especially needed a distraction from life. This book did the trick because it isn’t overly emotional, the mystery and Poirot reveal is solid and fun, and the story moves at a quick place after about the first 30 pages!

My favorite Poirot is probably still Murder on the Orient Express, but this book is definitely up there! And my favorite AC of all time? And Then There Were None, of course :).
