And Then There Were None

A lot of people say this is Christie's best, but I have liked a few of her other mysteries better. Still, it's very good, and I couldn't come close to guessing the conclusion. Christie even made a bullet-point list of all of the hints and clues (there aren't many) and stated, basically, this is what you know, now who did it?

I think I just prefer the Hercule Poirot mysteries, but that's primarily because they are so familiar. It's like seeing my old friends each time I read one. This book is completely stand-alone with no recurring characters, and that may be why it isn't quite a 5-star for me.

I still highly recommend it.
