4.0
I briefly considered rating this 3.75 because I got a little lost and confused at a few conversations within this book and the few times that information wasn’t completely shared with the reader but it was obvious it was there but I enjoy the writing so much 4 feels better.
Christie’s books are seriously so fun, they really are an experience and you have enough clues along the way that I feel like if you made your own murder board it could all be deduced; so in a reread you can see all the clues. I also love that at the end the entire case is explained so fully and in such details so you DONT have to reread to understand what every single little clue meant and the things you even missed are explained.
This whole book is an experience in itself!
& Of course because of the time this book is from, there are some harmful descriptions and talk about immigrants, just an FYI if you are planning to read this.
