And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie

 I've already stated my passion for books, especially the mystery and thriller ones. Since I was younger, I have always loved watching horror movies, which seems to satisfy my hunger for suspense. This I have also applied in most of the books I read. In buying books, I'm always considering these genres: mystery, thriller, crime, suspense, and horror. This book, "And Then There Were None", possesses these five genres, which makes it even more amazing.

 This book was written by Agatha Christie and was first published on 1939 under the title "Ten Little Niggers", but then was changed into "And Then There Were None" due to racial issues.
 In the novel, ten people, who each has something to hide, were invited to Indian Island by a man named U.N. Owen. There they were then murdered one by one, and which is odd, following the nursery rhyme:


"Ten little Indian boys went out to dine; One choked his little self and then there were nine.

Nine little Indian boys sat up very late; One overslept himself and then there were eight.

Eight little Indian boys travelling in Devon; One said he'd stay there and then there were seven.

Seven little Indian boys chopping up sticks; One chopped himself and then there were six.

Six little Indian boys playing with a hive; A bee stung one and then there were five.

Five little Indian boys going in for law; One got into Chancery and then there were four.

Four little Indian boys going out to sea; A red herring swallowed one and then there were three.

Three little Indian boys walking in the Zoo; A big bear hugged one and then there were two.

Two little Indian boys sitting in the sun; One got frizzled up and then there was one.

One little Indian boy left all alone; He went and hanged himself and then there were none.

Then the ten were found murdered, in Indian Island where there are no other people. And only the dead are above suspicion. 

It keeps me thrilled while reading this book. It builds up suspense which makes it enjoyable to read. "And Then There Were None" is a must-read for anyone out there who loves crimes, mystery, thrillers, and suspense, written by the awesome author and "queen of crime" Agatha Christie. You will surely love this one!
