Reading Challenge Beginnings

I always start out the year with an easier book in the challenge.  I'm not sure why I do this, but maybe it's to ease me into what's coming next.  Anyway, Agatha Christie is a no brainer for me.  I love her writing.  I get quickly sucked in and I'm done within a day.  She seriously had the most sick and twisted and brilliant mind ever.  How in the world did she come up such amazing murder mystery plots? 

I chose And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie for #6:  A classic crime story, fiction or non-fiction.  I chose this particular one, because it's her most read book on Goodreads, and I've heard it said that it is one of her best books.  
 "First, there were ten - a curious assortment of strangers summoned as weekend guests to a private island off the coast of Devon. Their host, an eccentric millionaire unknown to all of them, is nowhere to be found. All that the guests have in common is a wicked past they're unwilling to reveal - and a secret that will seal their fate. For each has been marked for murder. One by one they fall prey. Before the weekend is out, there will be none. And only the dead are above suspicion."

I honestly did not catch on to the clues.  I had absolutely no idea who was behind in until the very end.  That's part of the reason why I love her writing.  Most of the time when I read a book I can tell exactly where the plot is headed, and I've figured out the "villain" early on in my reading.  Agatha Christie is so good at introducing characters and swaying how they're viewed multiple times within just a few pages.  I don't know if I would classify this book as one of her best, but it is definitely worth the read, and yes, it's very good.
