This one‘s probably in my top three favorite Agatha Christie books! It‘s got everything! Locked room murder, suspects everywhere, and Poirot being his usual genius.

My kiddos found books at this one and we left some of Mommy‘s! This one is so special. The caregiver for this library made it for her mother who passed away. Her mother was going blind earlier in life and lost her sight completely in the end. She loved listening to audiobooks. This had bookmarks, stickers, glow sticks, and books for all ages. 🥰
Another belated #OokBOokClub review…
I was excited to find Pratchett using chapters in the first two Moist Von Lipwig books, and sad he was back to no chapters here. My brain likes chapters. And while I do feel the earlier books are stronger, I did really enjoy this—chapters or no. It‘s dawning on me that I‘m a sucker for a train-ride setting!
Moist continues to discover new sides to himself here, and his interplay with Adora was fantastic, ⤵️
1. Sitting up. But, I do read in bed a while before falling asleep.
2. The tagged book. Great short #mystery stories, all set on trains.

I feel terrible, but I read fully half and then just couldn't go on. I was so bored! Almost every conversation was cringingly lifeless! 😩 😭

Man, I loved this book so much! I randomly found it at a secondhand store and thought it looked interesting, and took it on summer holiday - so glad I did. An amazing adventure travelling the world, fascinating to read about the different people and experiences she and her husband had, and the massive variety between each one. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This murder mystery takes place during a crime writers festival on a luxury train traveling through the Australian outback. It was highly entertaining and more than a little meta, as the narrator outlines the rules of writing a mystery while explaining the deadly events that take place on the train. I didn't realize it was a sequel but it didn't seem to matter--I will definitely pick up the first book in the near future!
This book has left me stumped. I don‘t quite know whether it is steampunk / fantasy / eco warning or horror and I was left vaguely dissatisfied. The writing especially the descriptions of the ‘wastelands‘ was stunning and the sense of place on the train hurtling then creating through this otherworldly was great but the characters were a little two dimensional for me and following several split rather than added to a sense of what was happening!
