Ok, so, I've finished the Monogram Murders...I actually finished them two days ago. But I had to read the ending twice. In my opinion it's pretty far-fetched and quite confusing. Also, how did Catchpoole ever be able to join Scotland Yard. My grandma is a better detective than he is. Not being able to see bodies because of a Childhood trauma? Let me tell you, there are far worse traumas out there than his one. He leaves a crime scene and believes every witness he encounters without questioning their motives or their story in the slightest. in the old Hercule Poirot mysteries Hastings was Poirot's sidekick to emphasize Poirot's genius. But with Catchpoole as his sidekick, Poirot's doesn't look like a genius but more like the average human being. But all in all if have to say that Sophie Hannah captured Poirot's character pretty well. He went on my nerves 48 pages into the book, which he always did, also in the old mysteries.
I hate giving crappy reviews, I really do. I tried and tried to keep going with this mainly because its a Hercule Poirot story and I love him, but I couldnt. I had to stop. To be honest I was a bit bored. I wont say it was because of anything in particular because you know from other reviews someone will give this 5 stars and love it, so all I will say is this one isnt for me. Im sorry to the author, I really am.
