A review by josefinceh
The Mysterious Affair at Styles by Agatha Christie
4.0
If you like the bbc show poirot, you'll definetly enjoy the book.
There really isn't anything too special about the story, it plays out kind of like I expected, however I didn't figure out who was guilty until the very end which is a big plus in my book. I listened to the bulk of it during a long car ride home and enjoyed every minute. I did find myself confused about which character was which, probably partly due to listening to an audio book and the usual problem I find with older book where status and relations changes the way the characters refer to each other.
And pheobe judge is a wonderful narrator, she doesn't go into any too dramatic voices so if that is something you want I suggest you link for a different narrator.
