3.0

it is so disappointing to be reading this book and come across racist comments. it ruins any enjoyment i was feeling. 

aside from that, this was a less enjoyable Christie because I was able to guess the plot in the first 30ish pages. however, i really enjoyed the last 20 pages where we get the interactions between Poirot and Jacqueline after the murderer is revealed.

TW: racist language used to describe Egyptians and people from Africa. Overall xenophobia - Christie definitely airs her biases towards others in her books.
