ISU 3rd Reading Response

I chose to make a music video for my third response but instead of using plain images, I decided to make a trailer for my book. The trailer is based on a movie adaption of my book, under the assumption that a movie is being made. I uploaded the video to YouTube since there was no option of uploading the video on this post.

First Blog Task

And Then There Were None
By Agatha Christie




The book I chose to read is called "And Then There Were None" by Agatha Christie. It is about 10 strangers, who have never met, are called to a private island by an eccentric millionaire who is no where to be found. All 10 guests share a common dark secret in their past that they are not willing to reveal. Slowly, each guest is being murdered, one by one and the only ones who aren't guilty are the dead.  

I chose to read this book is becuase I really enjoy reading mystery books and since this was by "Mystery's #1 Bestselling Author" and it is also her best selling book to date so I thought it must be a good read. I like how the book introduces each character through what they are doing at the time, then shows them receiving an invitation to the private island.
