And Then There Were None

And Then There Were None is by Agatha Christie. This fabulous mystery is also known as Ten Little Indians. It is one of my favorite mysteries by the goddess of mystery writers. Ten people with seemingly no connection are invited to an island by a mysterious host (Mr. U.N. Owen - unknown, get it). It turns out none of the guests even knows their host and then one by one they begin to die. Is the killer among them? Who is Mr. Unknown? Why is he killing them? Often considered one of the best mysteries ever written, be prepared for a surprise ending like none you have ever encountered. A fantastic read.

Ratings: 8th grade - 10 out of 10.

I've read this book before. The ending is quite excting but the begining can be slow at some parts. It's definitly a fairytale book but it is still good...
