Jessie Rose’s comments from the 2022 ONTD Reading Challenge group.

I'm gonna read one of the suggestions in this post: We Should All Be Feminists This looks really interesting and informative and as a feminist, I feel like I really should read more nonfiction books about women's lives.

I finished the book and I forgot how quick the story goes once Poirot figures out what really happened. I do love Christie's writing and particularly with the characters since they are all pretty unique. Re-reading this definitely made me want to re-read more of her mysteries.

I'm halfway through the book and I forgot how short the book is. I also forgot how hilarious the previous titles page is because of the different titles of most of the books.

There are some parts that age well in this book but there are definitely some parts that are really awkward. Like Bouc's need to have the Italian be the killer is not that great cause it's based on stereotypes about what Italians are like. And actually, there are a lot of stereotypes that are used that bother me a bit throughout the novel.

I think one of the more fun parts about re-reading a mystery novel is knowing the ending and being able to see clues early on in the story. I'll make another post when I finish the novel, soon.

I'm going to re-read Murder on the Orient Express for January. My fav character from Christie is Poirot so I can't wait to read this again!
