Murder on the Orient Express
5By Ukko KotilaPerfect ending.Amazing!!!!
5By samnrickNobody’s gonna guessThe Murder on the Orient Express
5By False ClueI liked the number of suspects (13), and learning how they all played their role in the murder. Justice was served, but also revenge was served. Should revenge be served? ThanksOH WOW!!
5By Laurie_Oh_TLGI am making my way through Dame Agatha’s books and had been waiting for the perfect time to read this particular book. Having never seen any of the adaptations, I was going in blind to the story. It’s so brilliant in its telling and while the construction is a bit tedious at first, it is so worth it in the pay off.Murder on the Orient Express
5By Hawaii2015ExcellentExciting read.

5By The clubhouse wolvesI was reading it for my book report the book is amazing in the end you’ll never guess who killed racthett AKA. Cassetti read it it won’t disappoint youThe love this book -- I *HATE* the movie cover
3By CB_MadisonOh, what a travesty Kenneth Branagh wreaked on this book when he made the movie.... Poirot would not have resorted to fistucuffs. Anyway, please take the movie tie-in cover off, remove the "bonus" photos, and just give me back the edition I bought. I want to read the book the way Dame Agatha intended it to be read.Absolutely Fantastic!
5By SandyHollandAmazing! 10/10 would recommend!OMG
5By WittleYT77So I want this book in real life, now I was reading the sample, and first of all the author of this book must have done so much to make a stunning book! It leaves me on the edge of my seat! Second of all, if it is such a good book, that there is a movie filled with award winning actors, this book has GOT to be great! And finally I would totally recommend this book, and I hope to see th movie!Hope the movie is better
3By ECR5047This was decent. Very short. Not a lot of suspense because clues were collected quickly and all deductions made seemed to be accurate with one guess. The movie will probably have a lot of extras added in to draw it out and spice it up I bet.9/14/17 Update: Do NOT Download
1By TJFRDThis update, that updated the cover art to advertise the upcoming Johnny Depp movie had a catastrophic effect on the text. The Dedication and Part One, of three parts, are deleted and the "Contents", "Bookmarks" and "Notes" cannot be accessed. In other words, at least one third of the novel is missing. The book was fine before the update. NEEDS FIXING!!!GENIUS!!!!
5By Star Bucks LVR☕️Agatha Christie's Murder on the Orient Express is by far one of the best murder mysteries I have ever read! The intricate overlap of characters, backgrounds, and motives make for a suspenseful read. The final chapter will leave you shocked and overwhelmed! A MUST read😆😁😝Stunning
