Book Review: "Hercule Poirot's Christmas" by Agatha Christie
Book Review: “Hercule Poirot’s Christmas” by Agatha Christie
What do you love the most in Christie’s books? For me, it is the ‘a-ha’ moment in the end. I love the ways by which she surprises her readers at the end of her books. In fact, her ingenious ways of surprising readers certainly have no parallels. And, this is what you experience at the end of Hercule Poirot’s Christmas too. You get your ‘a-ha’ moment in the end. The book was also published as Murd…

The Sane Psychopath: A Gripping Tale of a Heinous Crime
The Sane Psychopath by Salil Desai is a crazy reading ride. It not only enthralls you but also shakes your thinking cap really hard at a number of times. On many occasions, this book forced me to take a break from reading and think hard. Yes, you heard me right. It forced me to think really hard. And, very few books do that to me. In fact, this book is just more than a simple novel. Of course,…
