Ikr I got some of the minor plot twists but the ending and the way there's a perfectly good explanation for all of it was just incredible

12. Sterndale Rockford - Pennington's partner

13. Willian Carmicheal - no 14's uncle. 13 and 14 see Linnet's letter about Pennington being on the same trip as her. they run to Egypt asap. Also, we don't get to see the full letter. He cuts it off by saying "that's all that matters"

14. Jim Fantorp -

15. Otterbourne - Mother of 15

16. Rosalie Otterboune - Daughter of 15, 15 and 16 both are going to Egypt (hide spoiler)]

I’m assuming Charles windlesham is not important ?
Hopefully…

I read only one paragraph about it, he’s making me SO MAD.

(view spoiler)[ linnet didn’t even agreed to marry him and he’s already dreaming about using her money. I hope he’s forgotten soon (hide spoiler)]

[spoilers removed]"

Tbh a lot of ppl annoy me in here but then they are murder suspects so....

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

You’re right…so many people are a…. bit annoying 😑

Anyway, Joanna southwood…I was super annoyed by her, she looked too materialistic.
But at least she’s practical and honest, I’ll give her that.

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

I love how the author wrote linnet
She’s not too stereotypical but the privilege is there

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

Anyway, I didn’t read that far…so let’s see

Ahaha, I wouldn't get emotionally invested in any of the characters in a mystery book except the detective cuz yk they might be secretly planning to kill everyone

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

WHAT ? WHAT ? WHAT ? 😧😧😧

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

Why is everyone annoying here ?! 😑

Also…(view spoiler)[ is it just me or the relationship between Tim Allerton and his mother kind of….creepy. Like she literally said she feels jealous when he gave attention to Joanna.
Emotional incest is real…just saying (hide spoiler)]

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

Umm…still not finished with chapter 1 but….

(view spoiler)[ “He added, almost below his breath, “There’s only one woman in the world I’ve got a real respect and admiration for, and I think, Mrs. Allerton, you know very well who that woman is.”

WHAAAAAT ???
🤢🤢 (hide spoiler)]

[Elena, Screaming mod ;)]

YES MARY YES
DON'T TAKE ANY OF THEM TOO SERIOUSLY ALL OF THEM ARE UNSTABLE

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

I KNOW
I HATE EVERYONE.

[Elena, Screaming mod ;)]

Unknown wrote: "I KNOW

SAME.

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

Either way…
What’s going on…

(view spoiler)[ why’s everyone after linnet ? For her money or something ? (hide spoiler)]

[Elena, Screaming mod ;)]

Chapter 5
(view spoiler)[ Big development yall
So um while Jackie was confessing that she wanted Linnet dead, someone was definitely watching
It was either the murderer or someone the person gave this information to is the murderer
Cuz if they go and kill Linnet, it would be easier to pin it on Jackie since Jackie was telling Hercule that she wanted Linnet dead (hide spoiler)]

[Elena, Screaming mod ;)]

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

End of chapter 2 and…OH GOD.

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

Not really a spoiler, just my anger..

(view spoiler)[ I HOPE SIMON PERSON DIES ! I HATE HIM SO MUCH 🤬🤬🤬 (hide spoiler)]

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

I’m at ch 4

And I’ve got this wierd feeling that…
(view spoiler)[ Do you think Simon and jaqueline are both in the plan ? What if this is all a plan to take linnet’s wealth. I’m not saying they are gonna murder her. But maybe….this is all a scam ?
That or Simon is the worst character (hide spoiler)]

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

(view spoiler)[ oh yeah, confrontation with poiret.
He says linnet was selfish and she was. BUT, jaqueline is better off without that Simon person. He could leave her anytime 🙄 (hide spoiler)]

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

I’m done with ch 5 and…

(view spoiler)[ jaqueline is definitely not the murderer , I can tell right away. Too obvious 🤷‍♀️. She does some truth to her words. I mean yes, linnet was the ‘sun’ or whatever.

BUT simon had a choice to hold back too just like linnet did, but he didn’t. He betrayed jaqueline.

Simon is the villain here
(hide spoiler)]

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

(view spoiler)[ “Simon broke out irritably: “Can’t she see what an ass she’s making of herself? Doesn’t she realize that no decent woman would behave as she is doing? Hasn’t she got any pride or self-respect?”

I HOPE YOU GO DIE OR SOMETHING. I don’t even care what happens now , he’s the WORST CHRACTER IVE EVER READ THIS YEAR 🤬🤬🤬 (hide spoiler)]

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

(view spoiler)[ “Yes, but damn it all, man, decent girls don’t behave like this! I admit I was entirely to blame. I treated her damned badly and all that. I should quite understand her being thoroughly fed up with me and never wishing to see me again. But this following me round—it’s—it’s indecent! Making a show of herself! What the devil does she hope to get out of it?”

NEVER WISH TO SEE YOU AGAIN IS WHAT YOU ARE EXPECTING ??
so you mean you ruin a betray a person like that and also hope she leaves you alone ??
SHE SHOULD HAVE INSTEAD DID WORSE
YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE ONE DEAD. 🤬🤬🤬 (hide spoiler)]

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

(view spoiler)[ “My dear Monsieur Poirot—how can I put it? It’s like the moon when the sun comes out. You don’t know it’s there anymore. When once I’d met Linnet—Jackie didn’t exist.”

😐😦😧🤯😠😡🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

(hide spoiler)]

[Elena, Screaming mod ;)]

Oh lord
Mary is very angry

[Unknown, Bookish & Jobless]

Elena wrote: "Oh lord

You have no idea 😭😭😭😭
I’ve never felt this much anger towards a chracter this year

[Elena, Screaming mod ;)]

I agree ahahaa
(view spoiler)[ Actually I feel like this is gonna focus a lot on the love triangle between Linnet, Simon and Jackie but I don't think any of them will have anything to do with the murders. Just a guess 🤷‍♂️ (hide spoiler)]
