This book ages perfectly and will keep you guessing til the end. I had read this decades ago and had an itchy feeling in my brain as I read trying to remember what had happened.

I didn't enjoy the formatting and I was never engaged by the story or characters. There were also too many pleasantries. The ending was a bit interesting but it made the rest of the book feel a bit pointless. At least Poirot is kind of neato.

I wanted to read more of her work for ages and finally got to it. It was a quick and realxing read. Was it mind blowing like people say? No.
Did I flew through it? Yes
It was telling not showing kind of book. Hercule would come to all these conclusions based on some things only he saw. Not we as reads and not the other characters. And at the end he figured out mistery in his head and in one long monologue told us what happened. I am guessing all of her books are similar. But it was still fun so I will read more books by her.

Too lengthy. Felt a bit dragging to read the detective enquiring every member on the Orient express.
