This book did not age well, the mystery is alright but racism and misogyny is pretty rampant. I also don't think I really like Poirot very much. He was my least favorite Agatha Christie detective so not too surprised there but he's just so arrogant when you are going through his POV. I know there's a movie adaptation coming out (it's why I rented this one) but now I'll just wait to see the movie when it's on streaming.
Moderate: Alcoholism, Misogyny, and Racism
