Read in german translation, my book also included some of poirots early cases. 

This was alright, as always. I'm truly not a crime novel person but it's well written and it was fun and interesting while it lasted. Can't say it's very memorable, but that's not new for me and agatha christie. Have had this sitting on my book shelf for years and just finally got around to reading it while catching up on my stack of unread books. Could be good for getting out of reading slumps since it's so short and easy to read.

Murder in the Mews: 4 stars✨
The Incredible Theft: 3.5 stars✨ (I guessed who the thief was but not the whole story)
Dead Man's Mirror: 5 stars✨ (Brilliant

A collection of 4 short stories. Christie's short stories are fun in that the 'aha' moment comes much more quickly, but I don't find them as enjoyable as her full-length stories.
