Why read it?
1 author picked Partners in Crime as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Murder, espionage, and weight loss clinics make up the challenges faced by Tommy and Tuppence in what I consider to be Christie’s most engaging book. The concept of a loving pair getting bored and deciding to use their energy to solve crimes was delightful. Christie takes a long honest look at human nature, and despite the murder and betrayal, laughs, for we are absurd.
From Betty's list on to laugh at the absurdity of human nature.
