3 out of 5 stars
I have to be honest and say I would never have chosen to read
an Agatha Christie book on my own. I read one only because my book club is
reading Agatha Christie is month because we have an Agatha Christie “Mystery of
Living” presenter coming to next meeting.
I opted to allow the members to read any Agatha Christie novel they
wanted to. I will say I was very
pleasantly surprised with Endless Night. Although it wasn’t “edge of your seat”
suspense, I rather enjoyed the little mystery and writing style. I am
entertained by books written from the point of view in which the narrator is
actually writing the story then and there. I was able to figure out one of the mysteries;
however there was a shocking element to the ending that was an interesting
twist. I was surprised that the “actual”
mystery didn’t happen until the last third of the book, especially considering
that when you read the summary for the novel you know a death occurs. I wonder
if this is Christie’s typical fashion and will be asking Christie about this
next week.
