Where to start? I think I'll start with the physical features of the book. So the cover doesn't give you much but the title sure does. And why not? It's Agatha Christie and therefore bound to be mystery but this is so fantastical and so mysterious that you will be wide eyed. This one is a short novel, you will be able to finish it off in a single day and of course, in a few hours if you have nothing else to do. I took two days as I started off in the evening but I was literally waiting for the next day cause I just couldn't understand how the hell it is possible. If you haven't read it, then trust me it'll leave you wondering too.
Agatha Christie' "And Then There Were None" starts off as any other mystery novel. Ten unusual and peculiar mix of people end up accepting an invitation to the Indian Island. Soon enough, each of them ended up being murdered leaving none and a fantastical mystery on the run.
This novel was one of the classics that one must not leave behind. The thing I liked most about this one is that it keeps you turning the pages and hence you can understand why I managed to finish it this quick. The characters were very unique and thus the group themselves is a peculiar lot but that just made the whole deal a lot more interesting. The desolate Island gave all the chills and the rhyme about the ten little Indian boys fit just right in; you knew very well how each was going to be murdered but the reality was a bit off the rhyme, though that made it more believable. You will understand what I was rambling about once you read it. Anyway, definitely one of my favourite mystery novel. With no ornamental, elaborate and unnecessary details, this one gets on point real quick. Keeps you second guessing till the end and overall, I really enjoyed and would recommend that you read it too.
