Who doesn’t like Agatha Christie?
Definitely a wow factor. Had me guessing till the end. Definitely not disappointing in any way.
After the Funeral is typical Christie. Her novels are like potato chips: you can’t read just one. Fortunately, she has given us many.
Classic Christie
Always love Christie
Love Agatha Christie books.
I love Agatha Christie’s books , and what more needs to be said? The queen of mystery novels.
I love the book and I love Agatha Christie
Not your usual Agatha Christie. Certainly not one I had heard of before. But Poirot thru and thru.
Agatha Christie is always my favorite! This book has a wonderful plot, fascinating characters, and leaves you guessing until the end.
Found an Agatha Christie I hadn’t read! Totally wonderful in every way. Kept you guessing till the very end.
Agatha Christie. Nothing more needs to be said.
Can’t go wrong with Christie and Poirot.
Wonderful read , but that is true of all the Agatha Christy books. This was a gem I had never read before.
A true Christy classic
Christie managing to shock and surprise as always.
Wonderfully and inimitably “Christie” – what more can be said!?
Agatha Christie never disappoints! This is one of her better puzzles. Her stories are never blood and gore, but puzzles that are intricate and wonderfully conceived.
An enjoyable book. Agatha Christie always a good read. I was wrong on guessing the out come, so that was a surprise.
