My favorite book
Last term during our reading class I had an
opportunity to read “Murder on the Orient Express” by Agatha Christie. I have
already watched the film, so reading the book was intriguing for me. The book
is easy to read, so I didn’t have any problems while reading it. As for the
person, who really enjoys detective stories Agatha Christie is one of the best
authors whose books have an unpredictable plot and ending. I love her style of
writing, so I have chosen this book immediately.
The story occurred sometime during the winter of 1925
to 1933 and the setting began on the Taurus Express. The whole book was
centered on the murder of one passenger. Hercule Poirot – the main character
tried to reveal the case. There were 12 passengers in the train and Hercule
Poirot had to collect the testimonies of all of them. According to the story,
all passengers are closely connected with each other. I don’t want to give you
spoilers, because it’s better to read the whole story by yourself. The only thing
I want to say you is that the ending will surprise you.
As for all Agatha Christie’s books that one has a kind
of ‘happy end’, Hercule Poirot shows his perfect logic and intelligence in
investigation the crime. I was glad to read these story.
For all people, who loves reading detective stories, I
can highly recommend this book, because it has: 1) unpredictable plot; 2)
interesting characters; 3) Hercule Poirot’s schemes and notes during his
investigation; 4) easy language that immerses you in the 1920s. Enjoy!
Yulia, your post is really interesting! I like Agatha Christie's stories. Although I have already watched the movie, I would love to read the novel itself.
