Miss Marple au club du mardi by Agatha Christie

jassmine's review against another edition

3.0

"...I protest that the ladies have not done their fair share."
"Oh!" said Mrs Bantry with indignation. "I’m sure we have. We’ve listened with the most intelligent appreciation. We’ve displayed the true womanly attitude – not wishing to thrust ourselves in the limelight!"

I usually really don't like taking my detective stories straight. I don't really read them much (unless they are part of for example fantasy novel) and even when they are part of the story, I usually don't care much about them either way. I really love Miss Marple as a character though... so, I picked this up as an experiment and it wasn't an unpleasant experience. I'm going to pick up the next book in the series sometimes next year! I think a full novel would work even better for me - than this, kind of pseudo short-story collection.

Ha! See? I can write a short review when I want!

First: I really loved this book! Thirteen BRILLIANT mysteries, all with endings that I would never have guessed! This was a nice break as they were short and not too dragged out. I was amazingly surprised by most of the endings and I am ever impressed by Agatha Christie's genius!

Second:I actually also really liked this the second time as well. I couldn't remember many of the endings, so it was like I was reading them for the first time! It was very cool, and it was a very enjoyable read!

Marple solves the mysteries I did read so quickly that it took any element of suspense away.
