They All Fall Down: A Thriller

For fans of thrilling contemporary suspense, Rachel Howzell Hall's brilliant stand-alone novel brings seven sinners to a private island for a reckoning that will leave you breathless.

It was supposed to be the trip of a lifetime.

Delighted by a surprise invitation, Miriam Macy sails off to a luxurious private island off the coast of Mexico with six other strangers. Surrounded by miles of open water in the gloriously green Sea of Cortez, Miriam is soon shocked to discover that she and the rest of her companions have been brought to the remote island under false pretenses--and all seven strangers harbor a secret.

Danger lurks in the lush forest and in the halls and bedrooms of the lonely mansion. Sporadic cell-phone coverage and miles of ocean keeps the group trapped in paradise. And strange accidents stir suspicions, as one by one . . .

They all fall down...

I love retelling and adaptation of classics or known stories. And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie is one of my favorite books, which this book is based on. However, I would suggest readers to just read the original.

This book is told from Miriam's perspective. She is a very unlikeable character. I wish there were other perspectives of other characters to give me a break from being inside her head.

I felt the writing to be a bit choppy at parts and the pacing was off. It was too slow in the beginning, too fast in the middle, and too slow at the end.

Overall, I didn't love or hate this book.
