Welcome to Litsy!

This was an enjoyable reread! A hint of the truth started coming to me from previous reads, but it was still a very satisfying denouement.

A re-read that was just as satisfying as the first. Comparing this to the 1980 film and the French adaptation (Les petits meurtres d'Agatha Christie, โ€œLe miroir se brisaโ€œ), I found the adaptations did a great job of streamlining some of the characters while retaining the essence of the story. Possibly my second-favourite Marple.

Watched the 1980 adaptation of The Mirror Crack'd from Side to Side today. BF marvelled at the all-star cast. Elizabeth Taylor! Rock Hudson! Kim Novak! Angela Lansbury! Tony Curtis! Geraldine Chaplin! I thought this was a solid adaptation. Lansbury did seem a bit young as Marple, in comparison to, say, Joan Hickson, but I thought she did well ๐Ÿ™‚

Nothing beats a rainy day, warm blanket, and good book! I love how this book references โ€œThe Lady of Shallotโ€ by Tennyson.

Agatha Christie is definitely one of them. I‘ve binge read them during my high school and college years, sadly I didn‘t have any of those books back in the days as I mainly borrowed them from my library but these are two of them from 2nd hand stores, love this edition. I need a reread soon tho since I‘ve forgotten most of the plots๐Ÿ˜…

Finished this last night, with Olive‘s help. Nice, twisty mystery, though the solution to the murder came at the very last minute. I‘m realizing I prefer these Miss Marple books on audio, so it‘s good that I have the next one checked out that way.

Morning reading. This is my second-to-last Marple in my current series read.

Loving this book so far! โค๏ธ

Another highly enjoyable Miss Marple mystery. I loved Miss Marple‘s interactions with the various characters in this oneโ€”from her frustration with her live-in helper Miss Knight, to her conversations with the doctor (who prescribes her a bit of murder) and Inspector Craddock. As usual, I didn‘t quite have it figured out until all was revealed, but at least I was on the right track with my guesses!

I finished this one today - I vaguely remembered the motive for the original crime, but I actually had forgotten about the two additional murders. Guess this is what happens when you go 20ish years between reads. ๐Ÿ™‚ I really enjoyed it, except for a couple of racial slurs (against Italians). Christie‘s writing is usually so great, but occasional flaws do show through. #jesshowreads2018

I liked this one much better than They Do It With Mirrors.

A little over halfway through the year and I've broken 100 books! Thank goodness for audiobooks. I can't seem to find a quiet moment to read paper books anymore. I have to rely on listening to audiobooks while doing chores. I highly recommend the Agatha Christie books narrated by Emilia Fox and Richard E. Grant. Of course I can't forget Dan Stevens as well. ๐Ÿ˜

Now reading "The Mirror Crack'd From Side To Side" after having seen the movie a bazillion times (Elizabeth Taylor and Angela Lansbury). The movie is quite different from the book but it's still a brilliant movie! Among my top 5 favorites. Not entirely faithful to the book but that is completely forgiven!

This book was an okay read. I didn‘t really see a whole lot of Miss Marple as I thought I would. The plot line of it was an interesting idea.

The many faces of Inspector Slack: Mirror Crack'd edition. He's Superintendent by this adaptation - which is one of the Joan Hicksons that I don't rewatch as much. I came back to it this time to see if I like it any more with distance (I don't, it still makes me so sad). Anyway, my favourite is the bottom one: incredulity (on learning Craddock is Miss Marple's nephew). #murdermystery #agathachristie #tvadaptation

Using Scribd for the first time. I like it. Other than Overdrive, what apps do you guys use for Audiobooks? I'm also enjoying that my British Women Novelist professor assigned Agatha Christie. My favorite author!! #missmarple #englishmajor #scribd #audiobooks

Day 6 #publishedinthe1960s #aprilbookshowers While this omnibus wasn't printed until the 1980s, the lead story was first published in 1962. And these past weeks I have been relating very well to the title and the poem from whence it came.

It would appear that Miss Marple chose my next book for me! "A High Wind in Jamaica" has been on my TBR for several years now, so it just moved up to the next spot.

I try to follow the threads each story lays out, and watch those threads weave together to create an intricate picture of human nature. My yearly reading choices become interconnected in my memory, and I tend to recall life events by what I was reading at the time.

"Children, Miss Marple reflected gratefully, never changed."

While I wait for the next Flavia book to arrive, I decided to become reintroduced to the first spunky lady detective to steal my heart. I was enchanted with Miss Marple as a middle schooler, and read almost every Agatha Christie book in the local library. Middle school was a long time ago though... so it's time to read them again!

One of Miss Marples most tricky cases & one of her last as well. First published in 1962, this is Dame Agatha shining at her best once again. I love the imagery that she conjures up with Lord Tennysons magnificent poem, The Lady Of Shalott "Out flew the web and floated wide, The mirror crack'd from side to side, 'The curse has come upon me' cried, The Lady of Shalott. Do yourself a favour & read the whole poem. Loved this book & love the poem.

Fun as always. By sheer coincidence, my last Christie was Murder at the Vicarage, the first Miss Marple novel. With 30 years passed, Miss Marple is just as sharp, but Christie's writing has matured a lot - more nuanced, effortless, she spends more time on human character and amusing detail - while perfecting the art of misdirection. It was a pleasure to see Miss Marple unraveling the mystery with pure logic. 4/5 โญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธ
