I didn’t like this as much as the other Christie I read recently (Cards on the Table) but it was still pretty good. Maybe I'm giving it a middling rating solely due to comparison, but eh.

It was so nice to be back with Poirot and Hastings again! I love Agatha’s style in this one - the dry wit and humor really comes through. I didn’t guess the culprit but alas! With Poirot I rarely seem to. I had stopped reading Poirot for a while because they were getting repetitive but this one hit at the right time. Loved it.

A rare one where I guessed the culprit! I guess Ms. Christie lobbed us a clue with "the type of murder."
