This was my first Agatha Christie book. I saw Murder on the Orient Express available on Libby but noticed it was like the 10th book in the series and did a bit of looking and saw this was the first Hercule Poirot book.

I've never been a mystery reader so I wasn't sure what to expect but overall it was really fun to try and put together the pieces and see who it was. There were a lot of different characters and struggled a little to track them at first but it was fun and well written and it's easy to see why she's such iconic author. Will definitely be reading some of her other books.
