I read this book for a school assignment. It's very outdated, since it takes place in the 1930s, so its quite sexist. I didn't really enjoy it much, but I've never been into murder mysteries so.

This book is so interesting! I can't stop reading it!
(Spoilers!) I couldn’t believe that at the end Wargrave killed himself so that no one will know he caused them all to come to Soldier Island. Amazing Ending
This is a very mysterious crime book. It has many suspenseful events. I recommend it to anyone who likes mystery or crime books.
I really want to start reading more Agatha Christie because her books are so AMAZING!! She wrote these books so long ago and people still love them!
I absolutely agree with palindrome. You would never guess who it was. This is my favorite book. Also don't peek at the end, no matter how tempting it is. That will probably ruin it.
oh my gosh!!!!!!!!!!!! you guys should all read this book!!!!! it is soooo cool . it gives you the jolting feeling that you would want in a murder mystery story. Agatha Christie really has a talent for writing novels. I really recommend reading it.
I had to read this book for a book group for school, and when I first began to read I was incredibly drawn to the plot. I find myself reading this book in the dark, for the suspenseful and thrilling aspects of this book! Any reader will be drawn to this book for the amazing plot and suspenseful elements. Christie never fails to surprise us with who the murderer really is!
I am currnelty reading this book, and the suspense is litteratly killing me! I love it so much
And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie is one of my favorite books of all time! The suspense that the reader is put through when devouring this book is torturous and delicious! I love the way this book breaks the conventional rules of a mystery novel while still supplying the thrill and clever sequence of events of a detective novel. Despite its relatively slow beginning, And Then There Were None provides a plot as exciting and engaging as Harry Potter. Unlike many older books, this one is supplied with enough activity and thrills to keep any reader interested and on the edge of their seat for the book's length. And trust me on this: you'll NEVER believe who the murderer is!
