In this episode of Books and Boards, Kayla and Rachel cover And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie.

In the next episode, they're taking a break from mystery and murder to cover a classic rom com by Ashley Poston, The Seven Year Slip.
BOOK CLUB QUESTIONS:
- There was a lot to digest in this book, with plenty of twists and turns! Who were your main suspects? Did you suspect anything supernatural at any point?
- As the book went on, we kept finding ourselves referring back to the nursery rhyme to try and figure out how the next person was going to die. What did you think about how Wargrave used the nursery rhyme to mess with the guests' heads and instill that sense of fear?
- Did you have any inkling that Wargrave, or one of the other guests, had faked their own death and that’s how they were getting away with things?
- How did you feel about Wargrave's motive or justification for the game/murders?
- How do you think you would have responded if you were on that island?! Would you have wanted to stay near everyone like they attempted to do in the book, or would you have isolated yourself and tried to find a way to escape?
- Agatha Christie is one of the most best-selling novelists of all time! How does this book compare to others that you have read by her?
