Some bits which haven't aged well, and a lot sadly just didn't work for me when I tried it in a previous nanowrimo. I appreciate the message though, and noted down a couple of helpful tips

Clever plot twist. Am not a fan of the characters. Couldn't shake the feeling that Poirot is playing with the culprit like a cat with a mouse

It's aged surprisingly well - defy storytelling techniques to create suspense and a tight plot made it an enjoyable read.

Some of the storytelling hasn't aged well for easy current reading (very wordy, more telling than showing, the term used for black characters has evolved to be a racial slur nowadays), but I enjoyed learning new words (e.g. chanticleer, cognomen, rantipole), gorgeous scenic imagery and gentle humor (Ichabod seems inclined to eat everything he sees)
