Summary: And Then There Were None
Review: Imagine being one of ten people that are invited to a vacant millionaire home at a place called Indian Island. That is the situation that Edward George Armstrong, Vera Elizabeth Claythorne, and eight others are in. To add more intrigue, one by one, the visitors are murdered. Nobody has any idea who the murderer could be, and each of the surviving residents is a prime suspect. This adds a load of tension between all of the characters.
I liked this book because the suspense is always rising, and every second could mean death. Clever twists add to the already great plot, so you never know what will happen next. As I read on, every page filled me with a new surprise. The details made it easy to imagine the scene, and I felt as though I was part of the story. The story jumps from one person's mind to another, so you can see the story unravel from each character's perspective.
I would recommend this book to anyone who likes first-class mystery thrillers, or is a fan of any other Agatha Christie novels. It would also be good for people who enjoy edge-of-your-seat stories with life or death situations. This book is fairly difficult, probably appropriate for a middle school level reader and up. The storyline is a bit complex, but is made easier if you understand the beginning. Now, the only question is: Can they stop the psycho killer before no one is left?

Summary: The Best Mystery Novel ever to have been written
Review: The mystery novel, And Then There Were None or Ten Little Indians, by Agatha Criste has been rightfuly awarded the title Mystery's #1 Best Seller for it is unpredictable even to one who is a devout reader, unlike many 'mystery' novels where the author gives away the story towards the middle of the book.The story starts as ten people travel to a mysterious island, after they receive a note of invitation from someone who they think that they know from the past, only to find that it was all a lie; as their stay in the Indian Island begin. As they dine, it is then revealed that the mysterious host intends to kill them all as a punishment for each of the guests' dark past, which they have attempted to forget. The reader from the begining, as ten people are sealed in to a prison of an island to the end of the story, has a single question in mind, "Who is it?" which is only answered by a letter from the culprit after the story ends. The fact that the reader actually has an idea of how the next person would die (as the murders follow the nursery rhyme) only adds to the suspense of the story as the reader is always unsure whether who he/she think the murderer is is actually the culprit. No mystery novel that I have ever read has given me so much pleasure and joy. Therefore if you are one that doubts the truth that it is the best mystery novel, you should definetly go find it out for your self!

Summary: And Then There Were None (Ten Little Indians)
Review: Although a very predictable plot was conveyed to the reader, there was still a sense of mystery and suspicion in And Then There Were None. The book starts out describing the situations in which the characters received their invitations to go to the gathering on the Island. However, as soon as all the characters had arrived, there was a great sense of mystery due to a record stating they all would die and gave clues as to which order the killings would happen.
The killings were very predictable due to a nursery rhyme that stated how the people would die. Although it was predictable it was still exciting due to an exciting twist near the end.
And Then There Were None is an overall excellent book because of its plot, well developed characters, setting, and exciting twists. And Then There Were None or, as it is sometimes called Ten Little Indians is a great book for all age groups, old to young. I highly suggest you read it if you want a great edge-of-your-seat thriller!

Summary: The best book ever written by far!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie is a fictional novel containing a lot of suspense and mystery. In this book, ten strangers are invited to an island off the coast of Devon. There had been rumors about "Indian Island" in the paper. Most people seemed to think it was owned by a crazy millionaire. When the ten people arrive at the island, they go into the dining room. There, they hear a voice over the loudspeaker. It tells them what all of them had been hiding inside, hoping no one would find out about it. The voice tells them that they are each charged with a crime of murder that they committed in the past. They had never been convicted, because there was no proof against them, but they all knew that they did it. Soon, all of the people begin to die. One by one, they are killed, and their deaths go along with the rhyme "Ten Little Indians." As the first few people die, the others are trying to figure out who the killer is. By the end of the book, they have all died, and no one would guess the outcome. You will have to read it for yourself to find out.
I really liked this book. It was so suspenseful; it made me want to keep reading and reading. This was the first Agatha Christie book that I have read, but it definitely won't be the last. The only part of the book that I didn't like was the beginning. It was boring because the author took so long to get out the background information. Once that was over, and the book really started, I couldn't take my eyes off the book because it was so good. I would recommend this book to anyone, if you like reading or not. Garret H.

Summary: A Mystery of a Mystery
Review: A group of ten people are brought to a remote unoccupied mansion in the middle of deserted Indian island by a mysterious Mr. U.N. Owen who is rumored to have bought the island. Once all have arrived on the desert island, a tape-recording left by Mr. U.N. Owen is played informing the ten guests that each of them is guilty of a murder but has somehow managed to get away with it. Soon the guests begin to die in accordance to the poem "Ten Little Indians". They come upon the gradual realization that Mr. Owen must be one of their number. Once all of the murders are complete the murderer is revealed. And Then There Were None was an action packed novel that kept me guessing right down to the very end. This book has a surprise ending that almost no one can figure out. It took me a while to get involved in this novel, but once I became interested I was hooked. I would recomend this book to anyone.

Summary: Thrilling...
Review: This book really is a great attention grasper. It tells the story of ten people who get invited to come to a mysterious island. It is based on how ten little indian men once died on Indian Island. They all mysteriously started dying and it tells how each person's death is related to the way the indians once died. I really enjoyed this book, but if i had to tell one way that it would definitely be better, it would be the beginning of the book. It takes so long to actually get your attention and get into the book. I didn't know if I would like the book at first but after a while, it got to be very intresting. I really recommend this book to everyone.

Summary: And Then...
Review: I have read AND THEN THERE WERE NONE, and it was so good it left me speechless. I am at a fumble for words. It was very capturing, and it kept me constantly guessing. Not only was it a mystery book, but it was a book on your conscious and how it could really affect you. It definitely caught my attention as soon as I gave it a chance. I didn't think I would like it because I really dislike reading, but this is a book that can actually keep my attention and make me want to read.
I could see myself reading more of Agatha Christie. I don't usually look forward to reading, but I can't wait to hear my teacher assign me another of her books. Anyone could enjoy this book.

Summary: Good Book
Review: And Then There Were None was definitely a thrilling mystery. The first part leaves you a little confused, but reading on gets much better. The book draws you in and leaves you wondering what will happen next. Ten strangers come to an island and all end up dying. They all have committed a murder, but it is a murder that the law cannot touch. Their deaths are foretold by a nusery rhyme in every guest's room. The result is very surprising; I doubt you would guess it. And Then There Were None is a great book, and I highly recommend it.
