This is a well-crafted, well-written book. Moreover, I would recommend this for everyone who loves crime novels or books by Christie.

I just did not care for the characters or the gossip. When the murder finally happened, I knew motive and who did it right away. Therefore, I had to sit through the other half of the book until Poirot revealed my theory as truth at the end.

The Queen of Crime strikes again. Only my second Agatha Christie, but a strong favourite.

Another great Poirot murder case. Death on the Nile is, like all Christie’s novels, exciting until the end. Only this time there were maybe too many criminals on board of the boat. They must have felt unsafe with the little detective on board as well.

I love Agatha Christie books, and this was so good! The uncommon setting, the list of characters, the little details and hints sprinkled through… Agatha Christie’s books never fail to make me feel like I was there trying to solve the mystery myself.
