I listened to the audiobook narrated by Hugh Fraser using hoopla through my library.

My first Christie. Being a lifelong mystery fan, I figured it was time. Even if this book is steeped in racism, anti-Semitism, sexism, and classism -- even this "revised" edition. I will say, I did not predict the whodunit, so that was refreshing.

Overall, though, meh. Mainly because the story felt more concerned with impressing readers with its cleverness than its characters, setting, atmosphere. Perhaps I waited too late in life to read her for the first time? At any rate, I plan to read at least one from the Poirot series before I conclude my exploration of Christie's works.

A true classic of the genre, Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None is a devilishly clever whodunit, which had me guessing (incorrectly) until the end. ( )

This was the first Agatha Christie novel that I’ve ever read. It was so gripping and compelling! Wicked and masterful! I can see why people are obsessed with her writing, and I wonder why it’s taken me so long to pick up something by her. I absolutely love the storytelling, the creativity, and her approach. It makes me want to go and read so many more for books now. ( )

No matter how many times I read this book I can't figure out the ending. That makes ot a great book. ( )
