Welcome to Litsy!

⭐️⭐️⭐️

🎧 I finished Ten, which I struggled to read. Quite an immature approach and not a horror at all. Such a let down. I almost DNF it.

She bent her head to his and kissed him. Whatever they‘d become after the weekend at White Rock House, they‘d become it together.

B-Slasher, anyone? This one provides the tropey fun, but lacks in uniqueness. Check out my full review on my blog 👇🏽

Minnie‘s face was deathly pale. She stared straight ahead, eyes fixed on the back of the stained cloth seat, and bit her bottom lip so hard that Meg was afraid she would draw blood. She‘d never seen Minnie this seasick.

This was a fast paced and easy mystery thriller based loosely on And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie. Although I had an idea of the motive behind all the murders it wasn‘t clear who was doing it and that kept me interested.
3.75 stars

While this had a nice premise - who‘s killing off the teenagers alone on an island - I honestly had trouble getting past some of the extremely juvenile actions of the characters. Yes, I know, they ARE juveniles, but there were times where I couldn‘t believe even a teenager would act so stupid or let another teenager treat them so badly. But I can say I didn‘t guess the killer, which is a plus. +16 points for #teamslaughter #scarathlon2021

This book was soo cringy. The way the teenage characters talked was soo bad. It was so stereotypical. You could definitely tell someone older wrote the teenagers. I didn't know who the killer was, but once I knew, the ending was very obvious. I'm going to give this a 1.5 star just because I didn't figure out who the killer was, but this book was very hard to get threw. The cringe factor was very high.

Minnie‘s face was deathly pale.

This is a pretty good take on Christie's And Then There Were None for the YA crowd. By virtue of it having been done before, it was a little predictable but I did not guess who the perpetrator was so that was good. There was a definite sense of menace and I could feel Meg's terror growing. But the thought that a teenager could have arranged and orchestrated all of the events was a little hard to believe. It kept me interested so 👍🏻👍🏻.

Ten teens. Three days. One killer. #ten #gretchenmcneil

Ten is the first book I've finished in awhile and I finished this one in 2 sittings. Just when I thought I figured out the mystery in the story the author would throw another twist in the mix. If you like mysteries or thrillers and YA I'd recommend giving this one a shot.

"This is how horror movies start."

This quote made me laugh because I say that too

I am so behind on updating Litsy, bare with me!

And Then There Were None for teens, the characters were poorly developed and a lot of the deaths were off-page. I didn't like the giril with mental health problems being seen as a huge burden on everyone.

There is something about being an adult that makes reading about teens getting killed more and more fun each year. In this #VacationRead ten teens go to a party on an island and one them is set on killing the others.

I‘m going to have to read this soon!

Oh man. I was so excited to read this because I loved Agatha Christie‘s “And Then There Were None”. I was not disappointed. This book got increasingly more tense and creepy as it progressed which made me read it even faster. I loved it and really appreciate the message it includes related to the teenagers involved. I won‘t spoil it for you😉

Ten teens are invited to an exclusive party at the island home of a popular classmate. Before long, they realize that something sinister is happening.

There‘s a striking similarity to Ten Little Indians by Agatha Christie.

”As the sound of the ferry‘s engines faded into the distance, Meg felt suddenly isolated. Other than the dull rumble of water and wind, she couldn‘t hear a thing, and there were no signs of life on the distant beach. Meg #shivered. They were alone in the middle of nowhere, their only contact with the outside world retreating into the night.”

7/10 good book! The first half was a bit slow and difficult get through but I could tell it was going to get good so I pushed through. And let me say, when it got good, it got GOOD. It was really intense and interesting and I was flipping through pages really fast and couldn‘t take my eyes off until the end! It would make me think I figured everything out just to turn around and have a HUGE plot twist! I highly recommend this book!!

This wasn't the best YA murder mystery that I've read lately, but I did enjoy it. There was some witty dialogue and some good ideas and plot twists. It was fast paced and a quick, good read. I did guess the killer - the book is a bit of an homage to a very famous book written by one of my favorite mystery authors. I've been waiting to see this plot twist used again and wasn't disappointed!

A new twist on an Agatha Christie classic. It had me on the edge of my seat until the very end. I couldn‘t put this book down, it had me wondering what was going to happen next. It had my heart racing and guessing what will happen next to them. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #Ten #GretchenMcNeil #funkopop #popvinyl #FreddyFunko #NormanBates #book #books #read #bookrecommendation #bookrecommendations #bookreport #bookreview #YoungAdult #Mystery #Horror #YA 💚💚💚💚💚

How could I not rub that belly? Hades is a big tease. #catsoflitsy
Starting a new book on my kindle. I haven't done that in a while.
I love And Then There Were None, so I'm curious about this so of retelling.

I'm definitely going to aim to finish this today !! It's so good so far. It's been a long time since I fell asleep while reading, but I did last night because I just couldn't put it down. Can't wait to find out who the killer is 💀💀

Book 108/120 and drinking tea with a mug one of my best friends bought me 🤓📖💕

When you have the time and a page-turner, it is such a battery recharge to finish a book in one day!

It sort of feels weird, YA or not, for there to be a retelling of Agatha Christie‘s And Then There Were None to me, but even so I enjoyed this. I didn‘t spend a lot of time comparing the two plot wise so that probably helped me enjoy this one.

I am liking this pick as my first book for Spooktober! The premise is loosely based on Christie's "And Then There Were None" but with a YA and modern spin!

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3/5 stars
According to the Amazon page, this book was inspired by Agatha Christie‘s And Then There Were None. I never read that book though I probably should.
I didn‘t like most of the characters, but the book is a fast-paced, easy read that kept me guessing until the very end. I had different suspicions throughout the book, but they were wrong, which is always fun.

Look what I found in this book I got from #BookOutlet 😱
I would have never expected to receive a signed copy of a used book. Pretty exciting!

Thanks @aprilpohren for the great #keychainswap package!!! I‘m so excited to read the books and I love the keychains! Look at cute little Eeyore‘s face! The iced drink mixes are a great idea too! @JenlovesJT47
