Throughout this book, I was continually reminded quite how much planning must have gone into creating it. Small, off-hand remarks are carefully crafted and clues are woven throughout. I had so much fun, and the mystery was great.

Easiest 5 star rating I've given so far this year! I love everything about this book and enjoyed it more than the first in the series (Everyone in My Family has Killed Someone)! The train setting is a fun tribute to Agatha Christie's 'Murder on the Orient Express' and there are so many nods to the classic murder mystery genre throughout the pages. Ernest constantly breaking the fourth wall had me laughing, and I adore how many hints and plot points he gives away. The mystery itself was captivating and twisty, yet flowed well and was easy for me to follow (sometimes mysteries get a bit too convoluted). Can't wait to see what Benjamin Stevenson (or should I say Ernest Cunningham) comes up with next!

I will say that I was thrown off by the bloody knife on the cover - I kept waiting for someone to get stabbed and it never happened!

Definitely for the Clue, Agatha Christie, Knives Out, classic murder mystery fans out there!
