Review: And Then There Were None


Author - Agatha Christie
Genre - Thriller
No. of Pages - 320
Year of Publication - 1964
Rating - ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Unlike my earlier reviews, this one is about a thriller. And actually a mind boggling thriller. This is one of those books which will keep you awake through the night with your mind bubbling with questions. A sure shot page turner. And the end will be something you could never imagine. 

A mysterious person U.N. Owen invites ten people to his island for different purposes and so the blunder begins. People start dying without any possible explanations and the murderer could only be someone among them because they are the only people on the island. There seems no way they can escape the island and neither do they have any link to the outside world.
The fear of death is hanging on their heads and no one is out of doubt. Every person is suspected. Any plans or strategies made to catch the murderer are futile in the end and the reason will become obvious when you read the epilogue.
Here is an epigraph from the book:

If you read it carefully, the epigraph gives you clues about the way the crimes are committed and how the ten people are killed one by one.

This was the second Agatha Christie's novel that I read and I really enjoyed it thoroughly. Start reading this book and there is no way you can stop before reaching the end.

Review: Safe Haven

Author - Nicholas Sparks Genre - Romance No. of Pages - 432 Year of Publication - 2011 Rating - ❤️❤️❤️ After reading The Notebook , I had high expectations from any other Sparks' book. I wouldn't say that I didn't like this book. All in all it was an okay read. I liked Erin's character a lot. She is portrayed as an independent and brave woman and yes, intelligent too. Alex is a decent character who showcases the idealistic image of a single father who loves and cares for his children more than anything else in the world. And lastly, Kevin, who would like him when he is the self proclaimed villain? I guess no one. Erin moves to Southport, North Carolina after fleeing from her husband, Kevin's house. Erin fell in love with Kevin and they got married but just after a few years of marriage, Erin discovered how obsessed he is with himself and how he wants total control over her moves and her life.  She felt suffocated in his house. She wasn't even al

Review: All The Bright Places

Author - Jennifer Niven Genre - Young Adult/Romance No. of Pages - 400 Year of Publication - 2015 Rating - ❤️❤️❤️ Recently, I read this YA novel and it was a good read. Instead of being just a young-adult novel, it gives you a sneak peek into the depth and seriousness of the mental illness the protagonist, Theodore Finch faces. He is portrayed as a complete 'freak' as called by his schoolmates. But no one knows about the damage that has occurred inside his brain, his body, and above all inside his soul. Violet Markey is an outgoing, carefree, ambitious and adventurous person until one evening. The evening when she loses her sister in a car accident, and nothing is same for her again. She blames herself for the accident and every small thing like someone's laugh or someone's eyes remind her of her sister Eleanor.  They meet at the top of school bell tower and their lives are no more the same. Violet learns how important it is to live life at the moment r
