3.4 ⭐️
Not as devourable and genius as the other Lackberg's books, but still a very pleasant read when healing a reading slump.
Nice short mistery stories and would recommend 'The Widows' Café' for a quick emotional read.

Hilarious. Basically the representation of my life in a one act comedy.

3.5 stars.
Not bad but to me not the best of Agatha Christie. It missed the comic notes between Poirot and Hastings. Can’t deny though that Poirot is one of my favorite geniuses.

Wrong book to start this year. I abandoned it as I never force myself to finish a book that I do not enjoy.
I don’t know whether the hype about “On the Road” is overrated or simply I do not understand at all the lifestyle represented in it.
Boring, messy and (to me) nonsense.
