Murder on the Orient Express the beginning

Murder on the Orient Express is such a good book that I have read countless times and I just had to read again! It entails the adventures of Agatha Christies Hercule Poirot, a British detective who falls into his most interesting cases by accident. Interestingly enough he is simply traveling home when a series of unfortunate evens leads him to be trapped on a train, where someone gets murdered. It is a typical who dun it type of mystery where at all times the passengers were unknowingly interacting with the murderer him/her self. Classic Murder mysteries like this are my favorite type of reading to do because they are interesting, full of action and keep me wanting to read! Unlike most books where i have to struggle to read. The only flaw in Christie's writing is that it is a bit old timey and therefore can be a little hard to understand at parts so i would recommend the books for high school students or older. The first time i read this book I was in middle school and i did not fully understand it as much as i do now. Yet every time i read it is just as suspenseful as the first time!
