A review by comebymoonlight
The Mysterious Affair at Styles by Agatha Christie

mysterious medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

4.5

The narrator (Hastings) is sort of an insufferable idiot but the fact that this is clearly also Christie's opinion of her own character makes it amusing rather than irritating. And I love Papa Poirot.
