Poirot the matchmaker. Bought it cause of the Doctor who episode but actualy more interesting then I thought.
Poirot mustache is fake, like full on a fake tufft of hair. Color me surprised

Interesting book. I find it amazing how her work is timeless. There’s a scene where Jane gets so annoyed at someone she almost throws the hairdryer at them, which is something that relates to modern day. I was thinking how great this book was until it got racist. The twist was unexpected - I had about 4 theories and none of them came true. It was a seemingly insignificant detail that is the crux of the twist. It was enjoyable to read. Surprisingly I liked reading about all the characters backstory’s, but this made it more slow paced.
