I would say this book had somewhat of a predictable ending but the way everything unfolded was quite interesting to me.

after reading this I watched knives out 2: glass onion recently and I can say proudly that Agatha would've been proud of Rian Johnson

4.5

This is definitely famous  for a reason. After reading so many of her works it's harder for me to give them higher ratings. However, this was so good. I loved the resolution, everything made sense and I'm quite satisfied with the ending. The only reason I didn't give this a higher rating is there were some of its time elements.

Also she was a minor???? I wish she wrote her a bit older what is this?

3.0

C’est un livre pour les fans de la série : l’histoire progresse extrêmement lentement, devenant même un peu ennuyante, mais les deux derniers chapitres sont toujours assez gratifiants pour récompenser votre persévérance.
