Classic Poirot but diluted into short stories. I prefer the novels personally because you can solve the cases along with him, but these were entertaining and fun.
Something from the top of my bucket list: I want to solve a big mystery like Poirot. Not many mysterious things happen around me, though, so I might have to stick with trying (and usually failing) to solve Poirot's cases. Luckily for me, they are plentiful.
This collection was very good. The stories were short enough and interesting enough to keep me entertained. Sometimes in the longer Poirot books, my mind loses the train of the plot but these short stories were great. I actually solved one down to every detail including motive (which I normally NEVER get in Christie mysteries) but I might have actually heard the story before so maybe I shouldn't alert the media.
