Agatha Christie ovviamente si riconferma la regina del giallo. L'unica pecca è stata aver guardato il film prima di leggere il libro, visto che mi trovo molto spesso ad apprezzare più i finali della Christie che i suoi svolgimenti, che trovo un pochino lenti.

Fun murder mystery that was easier to follow than I thought it would be. I thought the detective's name was pronounced Poi Rot when I first read it lol

I consider these to be the holy trinity of Christie's books: And then there were none, Murder of Roger Ackroyd, and this one. (If I had one more spot, I'd throw in A Murder is Announced, because Miss Marple is simply a delight)
Orient Express is the most typical of a Christie book. The well-tested formula of her whodunnit mysteries, with the murder initiating the plot, the usual variety of suspects and their motives, and of course, M. Poirot's organized use of his 'little grey cells' to get to the root of the matter, is all executed perfectly.

Very fun book, if a bit more linear than I would have liked
