WHAT JUST HAPPENED? 
 I realized about a week ago that I had never read an Agatha Christie novel. Filled with shame, I immediately decided to rectify the horrific oversight. 
 So I got this, perhaps the most famous of her novels, and swallowed it whole. I was guessing the whole time and did not predict the ending at all! I wasn't surprised, since I could see how it happened, but I definitely didn't guess how it would play out. I gotta say, that red-herring swallowed me whole! 
 But anyway, this novel is fabulous. It's suspenseful, surprising, and positively twisted (in the best way possible, of course.) 
 But that's not all, it also makes you think. What does it mean to be a murderer? What is justice? Is vigilante justice okay? Were the murders justified or was it a twisted sense of a sociopath's idea of justice? It's all in here and I'm still not entirely sure what the answer is. Well done, Miss Christie, well done. 
 And that's all I can say, since, well, it's a mystery and it wouldn't do to spoil it. 
 Now excuse me, I'm in the middle of They do it with Mirrors. It was hard to break away from it long enough to write this tiny review! 
 ADDED LATER: 
 Okay, so after some thought, I'm going to take a star away. Why? Because I felt the whole thing was contrived (which is fine,) but just a little bit too far off the edge of anything believable for me to love it wholeheartedly. I think that, in general, believability is a good thing for murder mysteries so... four stars. Still an excellent book though.
