I think this may be the first time I solved an Agatha Christie mystery before it was actually revealed (thanks to a pretty obvious clue about two chapters before the reveal) and I couldn't be more proud.

This is a fun little mystery that set a great precedent. The solution to the murder is now a familiar one but it's nevertheless enjoyable to read when viewed as a modern classic. I split my reading between an ebook and an audiobook, the latter being an excellent older recording, and both were easy and engaging to read. A solid 3.5 stars.

(On another note, I'd forgotten how hilarious Hercule Poirot is. What a sasspot.)

Recommended if you want to discover the excellent roots of modern thrillers, enjoy "did the butler do it" style settings, and want to spend a "cozy" evening (murder is cozy, right?).
