Read "The King of Clubs" - I don't like the ending. I would worry an innocent person, especially someone experiencing homelessness, would be accused with the police desperate to pin it on someone. But I guess we just have to assume it remains unsolved as Poirot believes. Otherwise a boring story.

Read "Triangle are Rhodes" - only a couple small clues to pick up on the solution, but an enjoyable read overall.

Read "The Incredible Theft" - ok, not much different from the short story or tv version. I prefer the Suchet version tho.

Read "Yellow Iris" - I guess it's as good as it can be for something so short. Impossible to really come to the right conclusion though. The song from the TV version has been in my head all day though.

Read "The Capture of Cerberus" - I never thought sexism could be used to solve a crime. I must be guilty of so much, my daring to wear dresses with pockets and no makeup... What a disappointing story.

Read "The Double Clue" - it's fine. TV version is much more fleshed out.

Read "The Dream" - knew the ending from the TV show so hard to evaluate since they stick close to the story. Good overall.
