A disappointing Christie
I haven’t read a lot of Christie’s work but of the ones I have read this is not one of her best. It is a typical Christie in layout, in the way she leads you down the wrong path on purpose or the way she deliberately doesn’t given you certain information. However, I worked out what was happening fairly quickly and I really didn’t like the ending, it was very disappointing and made me wonder what the point of it all was.
In a nutshell, a man dies on a train, there’s an investigation by Poirot, everyone is interviewed and the murderer announced. If you love Christie then this is one not to miss reading so you can at least say you have read them all but if you are looking for a rip roaring yarn or an exciting thriller then I can think of better books to spend your time on

One of my all time favourites
I first read this book about 30 years ago and it had a lasting impression on teenage me! I loved the ‘out there’ sense of humour and hadn’t read anything like it before. I have read it since as an adult and I still loved it. I love the fact that it manages to pick up so many different aspects of the human persona.
