Murder on the Orient Express
By Agatha Christie
Okay, I know I'm way overdue for this week's book. It has been a ridiculous week. One of my best friends since birth has moved back from California and is living with my hubby and I while he looks for job here in Indiana. My other bestie had her long awaited baby boy this week as well. It has been a long road to finally have her become a Mama and I was an emotional mess of happiness all of Friday. Along with big changes in my two friend’s lives, my little man is adjusting to being home for the summer and having to listen to his mother, AKA I'm constantly either having to raise my voice or reason with a tiny version of myself and feel like I'm going insane. I know I was a poop when I was little, but Lord give me strength.
Anyway, I read an Agatha Christie classic because the last few books have had to read for different reasons have been such heavy topics, I thought a good mystery would be great. Well I always kinda forget how much I don't understand or enjoy mysteries as much as I think I am going to. I mean it's always about lying and I can't stand people that don't tell the truth. Murder on the Orient Express is a classic and I'm glad I read it, but there are a lot of characters and they keep changing their names, which is confusing. Apparently, there is a new film version that has come out recently which I might check out, I'm better with faces than names if I'm going to be honest, which might help me out with the plot.
All in all, if you like mysteries then you have likely already read this, so I'm not going to recommend it. If you haven't already done so do it now. Just because it's not my cup of tea doesn't mean it's not going to be yours.
