The setting is really well done, the hotel really comes alive while reading, but the plot is kind of meh. I have that problem with a lot of Christie's stories, they just don't grip me as much as I'd like them to. Still, I think Miss Marple is an amazing character and I will definitely read more of these novels in the future.
