The Mysterious Affair At Styles


By Agatha Christie

    This book is truly a classic. Agatha Christie's first novel and, what's more, Hercule Poirot's first novelized case as well. This is a definite must-read. The characters, the plot, the mystery, and especially the impossibly small clues--that when put together, form a bigger picture obvious to all--However--take one single clue out, and the chain collapses. And everything MAKES SENSE. It is a wonderful book and I--what am I doing writing this? Get out! Go read this book!

Oh, and one warning--there are a few references that at that time were not, but are now, racist and/or sexist. Still a good book though.

96/100

(I honestly don't know why I keep on using decimal points when it's so much easier to just change to 1-100. Guess I'll use that now.)
