The Mirror Crack'd from Side to Side is my very first Agatha Christie! It just happened to be what my library had at the time, and I'm not sure if it was the best foray into the Miss Marple series as a first-timer, but I had fun reading it!
I've been dealing with a nagging cold this Labor Day weekend, and I figured this would be the perfect reading cure, but I found myself a little out of place with all the character names. I kept forgetting who was who for the longest time. All the quaint English names just sort of ran together in my sick-brain. And of course there were a few references to past murders that I haven't read yet. Miss Marple's polite snark was super funny and I look forward to getting more comfortable in the series universe.

I read only few Agatha Christie's books (and I love her so much - she's the only author that makes me to focus on reading right now) but this one had a very similiar reveal to one I read before. However, still amazing.

3.5 - i did quite shat myself :| it took a while to pick up and detective stories always stress me out bc i suspect everyone but i was on the right track with this one <3 hire me csi!!!!!
Never thought I'd be able to say a murder mystery would feel comfy, yet hear we are.
Miss Marples is such a fun detective!
I also appreciate the clues Agatha Christie got in. The answer seems so obvious once she lays it out, but I didn't even come close to figuring it out myself.
A truly joyous read, this was.
