Book #5!
I try to ration my Poirot reading :")
I don't want to run out!
So each time, I try to sip and savour it.
This one is a good one to sip and savour hehe.
Because the story itself isn't that dynamic, in my opinion.
There was a death at the beginning,
a long, on going investigation,
a slight twist at the end & the reveal.
That's kind of it.
No secondary events happen in the middle
I guess because in this case, Poirot tries to examine 11(-ish) suspects one by one. Eliminating them based on probability & possibility of committing a crime in an aircraft.
So, we get to meet these different characters,
follow or visit them in their 'worlds', while we are invited to guess who did it?
Even though I was expecting more action,
any chance of sitting with Poirot & Agatha Christie was delightful, always.
Whilst the 'plot' of the book is rather simple,
the crime itself was deliciously complex. I think that's one of the saving grace of this book.
I think this is one of the books you can read again, just to see if you catch anything in the 2nd read! :)
