"Ten little Soldier boys went out to dine; One choked his little self and then there were nine.
Nine little Soldier boys sat up very late; One overslept himself and then there were eight.
Eight little Soldier boys travelling in Devon; One said he'd stay there and then there were seven.
Seven little Soldier boys chopping up sticks; One chopped himself in halves and then there were six.
Six little Soldier boys playing with a hive; A bumblebee stung one and then there were five.
Five little Soldier boys going in for law; One got in Chancery and then there were four.
Four little Soldier boys going out to sea; A red herring swallowed one and then there were three.
Three little Soldier boys walking in the Zoo; A big bear hugged one and then there were two.
Two little Soldier boys sitting in the sun; One got frizzled up and then there was one.
One little Soldier boy left all alone; He went and hanged himself and then there were none."

Omg wow. This book had so many twists and turns and everything that I thought was true was wrong and wow, was I NOT expecting that ending. That was really something. I have no words.

Very much enjoyed. 
Entertaining and fun, and I loved Dan Stevens as narrator. 
It felt a little cliche, but then I remembered it's only seen as a common trope because Agatha Christie popularized it :)
I liked the end a lot. The only thing that may have made it more enjoyable would be getting to know the characters a little more. Even after finishing I don't feel like I really knew or cared all that much about any of them. But I think the point of this type of story is more the mystery than the characters themselves.

Because there were so many characters, I kept forgetting all the characters’ names. But I thought it was great and very clever! And the story got so tense towards the end :O
