AGATHA CHRISTIE Premium Collection: The Mysterious Affair at Styles, The Secret Adversary, The Murder on the Links, The Cornish Mystery, Hercule Poirot's Cases by Agatha Christie

4.0

I can't believe I finished the entire book. There are more than 1000 pages. My opinion about Agatha's short stories is still the same. They aren't insanely mysterious or rewarding. A lot of times you will guess who did it or would be frustrated how everything is solved instantly on the last page. But there is something about her storytelling that seems to me like munching on popcorn. You can't seem to stop once you start. Her worldbuilding carries you with it. I noticed that during the tough time of the pandemic, whenever I needed comfort or familiarity, I was heading towards her stories. They calmed me even though they were about poison, murders, blood, and weapons. It was like entering an exciting, yet familiar territory. Being able to do that for a reader proves Agatha Christie won at writing.

Also, I LOVE Poirot and his little grey cells!
