COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Light and fun submitted by hduke on June 22, 2019, 11:51am Miss Marple is completely wonderful, and these stories are fun and engaging without the need for a significant investment of time. Miss Marple is always quick to see straight to the true solution of each mystery with her knowledge of human nature and her sharp mind, and these short stories suit her methods to perfection.

Fun to Try to Solve submitted by kathscot on August 30, 2019, 2:10pm Short challenges to try to solve. Miss Marple is a fascinating character - an insular old-maid who is keenly observant of human nature and so able to see the logical solution of these baffling cases.

Stress Free Reading submitted by minghsuan on August 28, 2021, 12:44am The stories are short, and Miss Marple is clever as usual. This book is great when you don't have much time to read a whole novel, since the stories are standalone.
