3.5 stars?
I really don't know what possessed me last night—I went to bed a full hour earlier than usual out of sheer boredom. But that meant I was awake and staring at the ceiling at 5 a.m. Finally, I gave up, got up, put the coffee on, and picked up my Christie book of the month. It was a good choice.
