This was really well-done, and the illustrations add a lot to the story. This is a solid adaptation that will appeal to fans of Christie's original novel, and to people who are new to her work. I've read graphic novel adaptations before with static pictures, cramped speech bubbles, and text boxes full of exposition, but this wasn't like that at all. It reads so smoothly, and is so engaging. Even though I already knew the story, I didn't want to put this down.

This was a very fun take on the story. The colors used in the illustrations are lively, popping the story out of the page. The layout is done well, it was very easy to follow.
I remember watching the movie in the theater and listening to the audiobook, both some time ago, but sometimes a bad memory does have an upside- in this case, I had forgotten all of the details so it was like a new mystery to me, lol. Agatha Christie is a popular author to this day for a reason: she thought of everything.

A clever way to show murder on the orient express. It followed very closely with the actual novel.
