Good, of course (it's Agatha Christie,) but the stories are too short for my taste.

A reread. As great as the first time, even knowing how it ends!
Such a brilliant play!

I only read The Mousetrap, which is naturally quite generic (though quite a pleasant read at that).

I honestly didn't think that I would enjoy reading her plays (heck, I didn't even know she wrote plays). Surprisingly, I loved those plays as much as I like reading her novels.

Solo me he leído la ratonera porque ya estaba bien (aunque creo que me leeré tambien Testigo de Cargo para ver las diferencias con la peli de Wilder). La obra de teatro funciona como un tiro. Contiene en sí misma la esencia del "Whodunnit" clásico destilada para que dure una hora y media. Un montón de sospechosos y posiblés víctimas aislados en una casa de huespedes, se enfrentan a una venganza por la muerte de un niño pequeño. Nadie es quien parece, en una obra calculada al milimetro que se lee como si se estuviera viendo y escuchando en directo. El Cluedo Original. La pena es que al avezado lector de la Dama del Crimen ya no le sorprende nada. Cuando termine Testigo... lo añadiré aquí.

Sadly, I was really disappointed in this play. I'm referring to "The Mousetrap." I was trying to find a play to do for our school's fall play, and I read this with high hopes. Everyone spoke of the twist ending. I had the ending predicted from the moment the killer stepped on the stage. A disappointment.

The Mousetrap: I was expecting a tougher mystery to figure out, but it wasn't. I knew who the murderer was pretty early on (the skis).
