A Christmas Railway Mystery by Edward Marston
2.0
Not the best. It was...okay. Predictable and cheesy are the first words that spring to mind. The characters are stereotypical and exaggerated. Reminded me of scooby doo in some places.
I read it to get into the festive spirit. I was disappointed in this also. Not Christmas-y at all, just set in December. Not the cosy read I expected.
It was, however, an easy read that did keep me reading without getting too disinterested. The ending appeared somewhat rushed but not too out of place. The constant switch between differing narratives was also not something I relished.
An alright read but a bit too cringey for me. But some of the characters were endearing in their own way.
