*BOOK RATING CATCH UP #19/54 😳*

This is the first book that I listened to exclusively with audio, although I do own the book physically. It was an interesting experience to see if I would still enjoy Christie's writing in audiobook format. This book has confirmed for me that I am a huge fan of Christie's canon of younger sleuths. Yes, I'll take a Poirot or Marple any time, but the books that I have the most FUN with--the books that make me laugh and get caught up in the excitement in--are those with her young protagonists: The Secret Adversary, Partners in Crime, The Man in the Brown Suit, and now The Boomerang Clue (aka Why Didn't They Ask Evans?).

To whom would I recommend this book?
Those who love:
✓ Young, bold amateur sleuths
✓ Adventure plot mixed with light humor
✓ Christie's Tommy & Tuppence books/The Man in the Brown Suit
