A review by oumaima_mekni
The Monogram Murders by Agatha Christie, Sophie Hannah
4.0
It's funny that around 30% through the book, I almost DNF'ed it because of its slow pace and the irritating character of Hercule Poirot. I haven't read any of the previous Hercule Poirot's books written by Agatha Christie, this is the first one I tried. SO I wasn't accustomed with his quirkiness and weird usage of his full name when he refers to himself. That's why at first I was a bit irritated by his character.
Aside from the character, the pace pf the plot was kind of slow at first and boring, except for Poirot humorously picking on Catchpool for his slow wit. But then, things started to get more and more intense as the plot started to thicken.
I greatly enjoyed the rest of the book, nevertheless. There were too much suspense and a great amount of plot of twists that kept me flying through the pages, wanting more.
