But in this book she is adorable! After reading Murder at the Vicarage, I can totally understand why she was given her own series. As much as I usually dislike the little town mysteries, this one is great and the whole population of the town play an important role in the picture.Īlso, I already read some other books with Miss Marple and, unfortunately, I can't say that I like her a lot. The book has everything you adore in Agatha Christie's stories: the great characters (and truly distinctive ones), a very good murder mystery with not so obvious explanation (though very in Christie style - so maybe if you read a lot of her books, the answer would be obvious to you me, I haven't read ACh in years) and some pretty good humour (I laughed more than I expected and the whole cozy mystery idea is introduced with excellence). He is not an investigator in this case but, since the crime was committed at the vicarage, he is deeply involved in the case. The story is told from the POV of the rector who is a very interesting hero on his own. She is just one of many characters, okay maybe more important than they for the story, but still. But if you think that she is the main character here or at least a narrator, you will be wrong. This is the first book in Miss Marple series. It has everything you love about Agatha Christie. Murder at the Vicarage is one of her very best books. Some of her stories I absolutely love and some of them I find pretty boring. I can't say that I'm a fan of Agatha Christie.
