The Mysterious Affair at Styles by Agatha Christie
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
While I enjoyed the overall plot and threading of the plot, I simply could not get over Hercule Poirot hiding information.
While it is explained in the end, the idea of hiding information about murder is just anathema to me. What if Poirot had been killed, or hurt or damaged in some way? Then all of his hiding of info would have been worse than useless!
So I am going to continue to read mysteries, as they are a different genre. But if this evasive selfishness is a standard part of the characters, then I don't know how long I'll keep with Christie.
