I always enjoy Agatha Christie. There was quite a bit of humor in this book and the mystery was pretty interesting. Overall, I think I like the Hercule Poirot books better, but maybe Miss Marple gets better in later books. This is the first Miss Marple that I've read (at least, I think so). I think I'll enjoy the ones that are narrated by Miss Marple herself more than this one that's narrated by the vicar.

This was my second Christie book and I enjoyed this one a lot more. Kind of dragged on a bit in parts, but overall I think it was a fun read. It was hard to get into at first however due to fast narration, but I caught on to it after a bit. I'd put this at a 3.5. I'll definitely be checking out the rest of the Miss Marple series.

Such fun reading Miss Marple’s first mystery! Great mystery, compelling characters and a clever surprise ending! You can see why Christie is known as one of the best! #1 completed for #Booked2019
Delightful—my first Agatha Christie.
