A review by mrsbooknerd
The A.B.C. Murders by Agatha Christie
3.0
I would say that The ABC Murders has been one of my favourite Christie novels. It was compelling from the off and I was drawn into the plot and writing style easily.
The ending too was compulsive, a sudden burst of progression and unravelling culminating in a classic Poirot reveal.
The rating lowered for me in the middle where there was little progression and even the Great Poirot seemed stumped. There was a lot of speaking but few of the conversations held any point. It was just words, as one character said. Filler. Stalling the powder keg ending.
