I really like Agatha Christie, so I liked this book. But it's not my favorite of hers. Weirdly kind of racist in the characterization of people of color (one character in particular), so that made it a bit worse than usual.

Absolutely perfect book, one of the best from Agatha Christie. Not giving it 5 stars though, because the murderer was my favourite character, otherwise a great book.
