“One little Indian (Soldier) left all alone, he went out and hanged himself and then there were none.” ― Agatha Christie, And Then There Were None

Agatha Christie, Mystery, Queen of Mystery, Oriental Express, Classic

Tech Summary: Read from February 4, 2018, to February 7, 2018.

I have wanted this book for so long, and I had the misconception of what was it about. I mean I know what it was about but I thought it was related to something else. I love my bf @santi9393 for always being part of my addiction and for being one ❤ He gave me this book for Xmas, and I am so happy that he did! ❤

I will say like all people have said, this book was amazing. The whole mystery and the order in which the events happened were just, so well crafted. In the beginning, I was a bit confused and all over the place, but then I was able to settle in and taken all the story.

I said on good reads that if this was a Stephen King book the story would have ended with a weird wizard or alien intervention, but Christie does not disappoint. She did create the mood for both kind of endings, and the reader and “in the book” spectators got both of the endings. I must be true at some point I wonder if the killer was this or that character… and I even changed my opinion for someone else. All the plotting within the characters and to see how they went for the others throats since the very beginning added a lot to the mood and the point of how vice humans are. I was not surprised when I discovered the murderer, and all I have to say is this: don’t change your opinion once you think you know! I thought for a second that one character had some behaviors that could have been traits of a mad person but are adjudicated to his/her job, and I had so much training with all the hours I spend watching Scooby-Doo but I couldn’t resolve the mystery, but honestly, it was quite clever writing.

At the end of the story, you will totally agree with her, that this is one of the biggest masterpieces of all time.

As a side note, I like the first name “Ten Little Indians” but I think that was a bit racist? Still, I like the title now! :3

So, the kingdom has given this book:

5 coronas

It seems that your majesty is pleased and the knights have spoken!

    Glad you enjoyed, this is my all time favourite classic.

    (P.S. the original title was actually more racist than Ten Little Indians…

      Oh my! Yes, it was! and I will like to say that the times have changed but… I am not that sure.

      It is a great read! and I can totally see myself reading some other books by the author and playing the Hercule role! XD

        Peril at End House, and Murder on the Orient Express are my other two favourites of hers so far (both Hercule Poirot!)

        We just watched that movie and we loved it! I bet the book is way better! (and I have seen people complaining about it too XD) do they have an order or something?

        There is technically an order, but each can be easily read as a standalone 🙂

        I’ve just been picking them up in whatever order I come across them!

        I really want to read some of her other books because if this was any indication I bet her other works are really good too! And yeah, I thought the mystery was never going to be solved!
