Paperback or ebook for 4:50 from Paddington? I tend to go for paper when I want to slow down with a book.

Oisin, agreed on keeping the pitch short. I want a reason to try it without knowing every turn.

4:50 from Paddington is one I am weighing up. The description has me curious. I would rather know the mood than the whole plot.

Cian, would be nice to come back to this thread once a few more people have given it a go.

For anyone considering 4:50 from Paddington: I would like to see this in the six with a few very different choices around it.
