Briliant!
I really
need to come up with another word don’t I… Hmm… Blethericious (?)
Moving on.
This is the
first Christie book I have read properly without just making it a quick flick.
This was the first because it was the first that I got though the Agatha
Christie books bolection (this comes out every fortnight in the UK). And believe
me, whoever made the decision to make this the first book made a smashing
choice. I know that it has got me wanting to read more.
In this book
me are introduced to Hercule Poirot through the eyes of the narrator who in
the local doctor. Having only know Poirot through the David Suchet adaptations
I loved reading about him and seeing how he is viewed by others.
The characters
are anything but plain and in true crime fashion everyone has a motive…. But
did they have the mean?
Great mind
bending read!
I've never read an Agatha Christi novel either. One day.
ReplyDeleteI would really recommend this one to start with. Just enough of everything I thought :)
