A review by mightyjor
And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie
3.0
Positives:
- there is a very conclusive ending that wraps up all loose ends, though it confusingly comes AFTER the epilogue. Almost didn’t read it thinking it was an excerpt from another book.
- some of the deaths are very creative
- very short and easy to read for a good who dunit.
- Justice Wargrave is the best name in all of fiction
- hilariously racist to read in the 21st century, especially when you hear what the poem originally was before it was changed to Soldiers.
- easy to get the full audiobook on YouTube for free
Negatives
- the writing style is strange, though that’s normal for an 80 year old book
- some of the murders seem to rely a lot on chance and people behaving strangely.
Overall it was a fun read, but I probably won’t pick it up again.
