Yup, this is *much better* than my last Christie… I honestly think her short stories are her best work, and Mr Satterthwaite is such a dear.

I’ve listened to these stories so many times via audio and after The Secret of Chimneys ticked me off with its gallant, youthful butthead of a male lead, I need some middle-aged, inoffensive male characters solving mysteries together to appease my wrath 😂

Ewwwwww not some blatant misogyny right on pg 1 of chapter 1 😭 Shut up, Anthony and Jimmy. You’d be lucky if *any* of those women didn’t leave you to rot in the desert sun

Crossing my fingers that this male lead isn’t pretentious, lecherous, or otherwise abusive… Always a bit of Russian Roulette with Dame Agatha, as much as I love her 😅 Not every male lead of hers was a Tommy Green Flag Beresford

This is so dang charming…which may sound like an odd description for a murder mystery, but it is what it is

I love the cheeky, dark humour in this already 😍

TFW you are trying your hardest to A. Solve a Murder and B. Marry Off Your Widower Father, and the Adults Refuse to Cooperate

Mog and Jack’s sibling-like bond is precious 🥹

Mila and Carter are SO CUTE 🥹

As an aunt to a teenager, the tension between Jupiter and Mog in this book is hitting me RIGHT WHERE IT HURTS 😭😅😂 (But gosh I’m loving this book!)

THE AGATHA CHRISTIE REFERENCES 😍

Finally getting to listen to the audiobook and it’s FULL CAST EEEEE!!!
