loveddddd it, it is very formal and outdated language. edit: I thought the letter in the bottle was a sneek peak of a different book and almost didn’t read it. THIS BOOK IS SO GOOD.

This might be one of the scariest Agatha Christie novels. It was just so well written and the ending really took me by surprise. Spoiler:

I just never imagined that it was Wargrave. But it makes so much sense.

Some people wrote reviews saying they knew after the first 60 pages who the murderer was, but I wasn't able to put all the pieces together. It also presents the reader with an interesting ethical question, about "murder" and "justice".
I am glad that the newer editions have been edited to change the racist title and poem. This doesn't change the overall plot and makes the book accessible to all. 
Still, fair warning: all of the characters are overtly racist, sexist, and/or anti-Semitic. But they are meant to be assholes.
