#OrientExpressBuddies

Here it is my review of Murder on the Orient Express.
I really loved it. It wasn‘t what l expected. Not a lot of action, the story is mostly in the dialogue, but it's awesome. The same characters that hide their secrets slowly reveal them. I love the psychology, the game of wills and skills.

Really a unique novel.

onnatsshelf I really need to read this, it sounds right up my alley! 7y
JazzFeathers @TheBookFawn lt is beautiful and surprising 😊 7y
Gissy I'm waiting for my book to read it before I see the movie! I hope it comes on time 🤞 7y

I finished some great books this month and definitely enjoyed my Halloween themed reads. My two new favorites were Word by Word about the process of writing and revising dictionaries and my first Agatha Christie novel, Murder on the Orient Express. The Return of the King was a reread for #LotRChapteraDay and is also a lifelong favorite.

Daisey I'm also excited that I have finished reading my #CovertoCover book for this month ahead of schedule, and it should be mailed this week! (edited) 7y
Marmie7 Awesome Daisey! It was a quick #covertocover selection, wasn't it? I can't believe it's almost been a year for our group😱 7y
BarbaraJean I also read all three of your favorites in October—ROTK, Word by Word, and Murder on the Orient Express—and am now wondering how I left them off my list of favorites for the month... too many good books!! (edited) 7y

tpixie Great accomplishments!!! I‘m starting to do audio of Orient Express & just finished #CoverToCover. I put Word on my TBR! 7y
Daisey @Marmie7 It was definitely an easier, faster read than a expected when I started. I can't believe we're almost done with the first year either! So glad we decided to do it again; I've definitely read an interesting variety of books I would not have picked up on my own. 7y
Daisey @BarbaraJean So many good ones this month! I really enjoyed your posts about Word by Word so much as I was also listening. 7y
Daisey @tpixie Thanks! The narrator for Murder on the Orient Express is fantastic and Word by Word is so good! I hope you enjoy them as much as I did. 7y
BarbaraJean @Daisey Inadvertent buddy read! 😊 7y

Finished this tonight! Loved the pacing, the slow build up to the actual murder-really was surprised by the ending. Really truly. Haven‘t seen any movie versions & purposefully looked nothing up!
Really enjoyed reading this with #orientexpressbuddies thanks for sharing reading experiences, thoughts,observations. @JazzFeathers thanks for hosting & putting together fabulous, informative, fb page/posts.

JazzFeathers I haven't finished yet, but l will soon. I's so eager to read the ending. I'm so happy thus was a positive experience for you. It's my first hosting, so l'm still learning 😊 7y
kspenmoll @JazzFeathers Let us know what you think of the ending or if you predicted it- I did not. I stayed up to finish it last night. 😲 7y

This is the first book by Agatha Christie that I've read or listened to, and it will definitely not be the last. I loved all of the descriptive details, the variety of characters, and the methodical process of analyzing the case! The narrator for this audiobook was wonderful, but I think next time I will read in print just so I can make notes or highlights as I read.

ReadingSusan She is the best. I love her books so much. 7y
Daisey @ReadingSusan It was so good! I‘m really not sure how I made it this long without reading anything by her. 7y
kspenmoll I am reading less this week, work, life- but loving it. Up to ch 13. Agree with your comments! 7y

JazzFeathers I'm in the second half of the book and l can't wait where it gies. I mean, l know exacrly where it goes, but l need to read it! 👀 7y
Daisey @kspenmoll @JazzFeathers I was going to try slowing down my listen a bit, but I saw a few others finishing up and I just had to know the answer! 7y
ReadingSusan @Daisey I remember the first one I read. I think I was around 15 years old. It was the Seven Dials Mystery. And I was like whoa I love these. I consumed all her books the next couple of years. I need to start a reread. 7y
