Book Intro: And Then There Were None, by Agatha Christie

I've never read a mystery novel before, and I couldn't help but start with an Agatha Christie novel. After all, she's supposed to be the Queen of Mystery.
I'd be lying to you all though if I didn't mention the real reason I decided on an Agatha Christie novel… It's all because of this little show right here. -->
After all the character Jessica Fletcher lives in "Cabot Cove, Maine". (How could I resist.)

Now I know the show Murder, She Wrote is actually based on the Miss Marple books by Agatha Christie, however I wanted to start with another well-known book by her. This is how I ended up choosing And Then There Were None.


And Then There Were None

By

Agatha Christie

"Ten people, each with something to hide and something to fear, are invited to a lonely mansion on Indian Island by a host who, surprisingly, fails to appear. On the island they are cut off from everything but each other and the inescapable shadows of their own past lives. One by one, the guests share the darkest secrets of their wicked pasts. And one by one, they die…"
Intriguing to say the least. I'm excited to read this book, and I hope you guys will scope it out. Heck at the end of the day I just leave you with this (cause I'm sure it'll happen within the first 20 pages).

      Half the reason I'm so addicted is because I remember watching it with you when I came home from school! We wouldn't even sit while watching it either from the kitchen. =)
