It was alright
I didn’t have a bad time, though I was not super invested in the story. The ending did surprise me and get a :O reaction out of me. Poirot was also a thoroughly entertaining character despite his and everyone else’s remarks about women and people of different religions and ethnicities…
It did drag out a bit and the random sexism and other distasteful commentary took away some of my enjoyment but I look forward to reading some of Agatha Christie’s better works.
