A review by shieldbearer
Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha Christie

emotional mysterious medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

4.0

A very well constructed mystery that still packs a punch even when you know the "solution". I thought Christie did an excellent job laying out how Poirot figured out that
all of the inhabitants of the train car were connected
- groundwork that's laid as early as the first chapter and with quite a payoff.
