Cat Among the Pigeons

Title: Cat Among the Pigeons
Author: Agatha Christie
Number of pages: 240
Number of pages read: 80




      The book "Cat Among the Pigeons" is a classic mystery book by a fantastic author Agatha Christie. So far there is nothing "exciting" in the book. The main setting is in England, Meadowbank school for girls. It's a wonderful place for girls all ages until one night when one of the teachers has been murdered. Who murdered her and why? Is the murderer with them everyday at school? There are many characters and I don't know half of their names! There are about 10 teachers (math, English, PE, etc.), lots of students but a few of them mentioned and many more. My favorite part so far was the murderer of a teacher (I don't want to say her name) because it is very mysterious and scary. I get scared whenever I think of it! I can't wait to finish the book and find out who is the murderer!

    I would recommend this book to children/teens over the age of 10 because the story is a little confusing at the beginning and crime (murderer/killing) happens in the book. If you enjoy mystery and crime this book is for you. Agatha Christie wrote many other books from this series. I would rate this book 7/10 maybe. I'm giving the book this rate because the beginning is really boring to me and i think that the turning point/climax of the book is in the wrong place. If I was writing the book the climax would be at about 50 pages or so. It took me time ti concentrate while reading this book. There are a lot of things happening in the beginning and that's why I gave it a 7. :)
