 The Pinacle of Agatha Christie September 28, 2008
The pinnacle of Agatha Christie. This is a fast-paced series of murders that manages to be thoroughly engrossing and disgusting and twisted. Wonderful.
My first Christie book... September 23, 2008
and I'm no kid, believe me. I didn't think I'd like mystery, but this one makes me want to come back for more. It was assigned for my daughter's English class at school, so I picked it up and read it -- in one day. It kept me guessing and flipping back to find clues all the way to the end. Bravo!
Then There Were None-- Best book September 22, 2008
Then There Were None, also published as The Ten Little Indians, was one of the most page-turning thrillers I've read. This book will keep you up all night and day wanting to finish it. This book is about 10 unsuspecting people going to an unknown island for a vacation. Each person is persuaded over for various reasons. The longer they stay, the weirder things get. Each day someone is killed, but there is no other people on the island despite a butler. As the members are being killed off, it leaves everyone thinking. Who is the murderer?
This book will be the best thriller/mystery book you may read. It's darkness and spookiness keeps you interested. The way the book's written makes you feel like you're in the book, trying to save yourself. But you never know which order you may go in. I highly reccomend this book, so enjoy.

Arguably Christie's masterpiece, and certainly her darkest tale, And Then There Were None takes you to Indian Island where 10 strangers have been lured to face the unspeakable crime each has committed and gotten away with....until now. As each of the 10 die one by one, the other realize the net is closing in and there's no way to discover their unknown avenger or escape his or her unerring execution of justice. Brilliantly written, you can feel the atmosphere of suspicion and dread growing with each death and a twist ending that only the most astute will see coming.
One of Agatha Christie's Finest Mystery Novels August 13, 2008
I have been a life long fan of Agatha Christie's writing and her storytelling abilities. I first read "And The There Were None" several years ago now.... I thought "And The There Were None" was a great mystery novel then as I do now. In fact, I feel "And The There Were None" is one of Dame Christie's best novels ever written for the following reasons:
* Great Storytelling By Dame Agatha Christie.
* Quick Read That Is Difficult To Put Down.
* Interesting Plot, Which Takes 10 Strangers & Lures Them All To An Island Where Killer Kills All Ten Strangers Off One By One.
* All Ten Victims Are Stranded On The Island With No Means Of Leaving The Island Or Communicating With The Outside World, Which Intensifies The Storyline.
* Lots of Red Herrings & Misdirection Keeps The Reader Guessing As To Who The Killer Really Is & How The Murders Are Being Executed.
* Great Ending.
