Review:
Throwback Thursday if there ever was one, am I right? Murder on the Orient Express was published in 1934!! The Queen of murder mystery is still killing it (pun intended πͺ) all these years later.
It took a minute to get into the story and figure out all the different characters, but once I got going, I could not put this one down! I even brought it with me to the gym and read it on my cool down walk on the treadmill.
I just can’t say enough good things about AC. She was incredibly talented. Her character descriptions are my favorite because they’re straight to the point and you can visualize them instantly.
My favorite AC novel is still And Then There Were None, but I was very entertained throughout Murder on the Orient Express! The ending was ππ»ππ»
