A review by dramagirl2003
Murder On The Christmas Express by Alexandra Benedict

dark emotional mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

this was quite good for a festive adult fiction, and even better for readers who want to try solve the hidden anagrams.
i’m usually more into YA, probably cause the characters are much closer in age, but i still enjoyed this book. i wasn’t all that invested in the mystery until about halfway through, but i appreciated the conclusion, and look forward to rereading next christmas to look for the foreshadowing and hidden clues i missed

thoughts while reading

p163: how convenient to have a lawyer onboard
p192: the stowaway
is meg’s stalker!

p264: i’m paranoid
the food might be poisoned

p271: waiting desperately for the reveal
p279: well i did strongly suspect them at least once
p282: but who is the
blackmailer
?
