Wow, I didn't know there was this many Miss. Marple's did you? Dang. I only got to watch Geri and Julia. Lol. The others were before my time. #actresses #missmarple #juliamckenzie #agathachristie #joanhickson #thrownback
I must admit, I've always had a fondness for tie-in covers. 😊 For my April #readchristie2024 selection, I'm going with the first Miss Marple novel, The Murder at the Vicarage (originally published in 1930). I'm excited to revisit this one, as Miss Marple has always been my favorite Christie sleuth. 👵📚 @officialagathachristie #agathachristie #missmarple #Marple #book #books #booknerd #murdermystery #crimenovel #readingchallenge
Another #graphicnovel #bodyinthelibrary by #dameagathachristie from @lepmeditores published on March 25, 2022 in Brazil by the title of "Um cadáver na biblioteca" a story with the lovely lady #missmarple review>>> In the peaceful English countryside, the Bantrys wake up in their beautiful mansion and discover the body of a young, unknown woman in the library. She is wearing a provocative party dress, has a bruised face and has apparently been strangled. But who is she? #quadrinhos #crimefiction #crimefictionbooks #appointmentwithdeath #agathachristie @officialagathachristie
Short Stories Saturday Summary. Sensational! Stupendous! ( That's enough S words now -Ed.) Qotd?: What was the last short story you read? Another week of #ReadingAStoryADay and this week was the end of the Marple book (see previous post for review) The summary: Saturday - Mrs Badgery by Wilkie Collins A humorous haunting. Sunday - The Most Strongest Obeah Woman of The World by Nalo Hopkinson Probably best for your health not to mess with ancient traditions and magic. That's my advice 😉 Monday - The Disappearance by Leigh Bardugo A Miss Marple story with a controversial ending. Tuesday - Alice's Red by @wyethitweird Alice, a wolf, & coming of age. Wednesday - Behind Her, Trailing Like Butterfly Wings by Daniela Tomova From Bulgaria. A fable like dystopian world. Thursday - Mrs Lirriper's Lodgings by Charles Dickens Mrs Lirriper recounts the goings on in her lodging house. A snapshot of Victorian London life. Friday - The Norwood Trouble by Maurice Broaddus Horror in the black community of Norwood in segregation era America. Again, quite a mix. Two Victorian tales, two horror stories, a sci-fi story, a short piece of speculative/weird fiction and a Miss Marple murder mystery. Have a great weekend & happy reading.

L’affaire Protheroe « Quiconque tuerait le colonel Protheroe, déclara le pasteur en brandissant un couteau à découper au-dessus d’une pièce de bœuf des plus coriaces, rendrait au monde un fier service ! » Quelle remarque imprudente et déplacée de la part d’un homme d’étoffe. Cette dernière revient le hanter quelques heures plus tard seulement, lorsque le colonel est retrouvé baignant dans une mare de sang, dans le bureau du presbytère. Néanmoins comme le signale Miss Marple, la victime était si antipathique que les suspects ne manquent pas dans le village paisible de St. Mary Mead. Sous prétexte de jardiner et d’observer les oiseaux à la jumelle, Miss Marple surveille son monde. Elle a presque toujours raison, et c’est pourquoi tout le monde s’en méfie… Le défi #readchristie2024 est pour moi l’occasion de découvrir l’œuvre d’Agatha Christie bien plus largement que de me contenter des enquêtes menées par mon détective préféré, Hercule Poirot. Pour ce nouveau trimestre dédié aux années 1930, la décennie la plus prolifique de la Reine du Crime, je n’ai donc pas hésité à m’inspirer de la sélection officielle @officialagathachristie pour lire « L’affaire Protheroe », le premier des treize romans dans lesquels apparaît Miss Marple. Cette vieille demoiselle aux cheveux blancs et aux manières affables et distinguées est une fine observatrice de la nature humaine. Si elle participe aux commérages peu charitables et bien cruels de St. Mary Mead, ces derniers lui permettent bien souvent de révéler la vérité et c’est encore le cas dans cette intrigue. J’apprécie beaucoup Miss Jane Marple et encore plus l’environnement dans lequel elle développe son talent de détective amatrice mais regrette qu’elle soit un personnage aussi secondaire. J’ai l’impression que c’est toujours le cas, un peu comme mon échec à résoudre une enquête d’Agatha Christie. J’étais certaine d’être sur la bonne piste ce coup-ci mais le dénouement m’a encore une fois surprise, pour mon plus grand plaisir évidemment. 🏷️ : @editionsdumasque • #agathachristie • #agathachristiebooks • #laffaireprotheroe • #themurderatthevicarage • #editionsdumasque • #missmarple • #bookstagram • #bookstagramfrance

#readchristie2024🔍 #audiolibri #missmarple #2024libro39 Miss Marple e i tredici problemi di Agatha Christie. Libro molto gradevole, ma dove c'è miss Murple si rimane sempre piacevolmente conquistati. Il libro è una serie di tredici racconti con diversi casi di omicidio avvenuti in passato. Nelle riunioni del Club del martedì i primi sei casi vengono raccontati a turno per cercare di arrivare alla soluzione. Naturalmente la persona che ci arriva per prima è sempre l'arguta signorina Murple, eterna anziana fanciulla dai capelli bianchi, che conosce talmente bene la psicologia umana da non lasciarsi mai sfuggire nessun indizio possibile. Apparentemente slegati fra di loro tutti i racconti hanno invece qualcosa che li unisce. E non manca l'eterna rivalità tra Miss Murple e l'ispettore, che piano piano inizia ad apprezzare le doti della miss. Ascoltato in audiolibro e consigliato. #⭐⭐⭐⭐ Durata 9 ore e 3 minuti.
Another Christie spread completed! 2 more to go! This Miss Marple’s caught me by surprise, and is one of my favorites. I enjoy spending time with the characters each time I read it and sadly bid them adieu each time the book comes to a close, but heartened by the fact that these book-friends are but a page-turn away… #booktuber #bookstagram #bookjournal #bookjournaling #bookjournaler #bookjournalspread #agathachristie #agathachristiesmarple #missmarple #themovingfinger

✨️ Book review ✨️ I very sadly have come to the end of my Miss Marple books by @officialagathachristie after reading Miss Marple : The Complete Short Stories. I have been putting this off, trying not to read them all in quick succession, even though I have wanted to inhale them! The queen of murder mysteries, Agatha Christie, was a genius. I am in awe of her brain, her imagination, and her writing. Though I prefer the longer stories, this collection of short stories was a pleasure to read, as it gave me multiple doses of Miss Marple and the magic that is her character. I am sad that I will never again have the joy of reading one of Miss Marples' stories for the first time, but I am so happy that I went down this road to begin with! This will remain one of my most prized possessions, and I will surely re-read them in the future, as well as pass them down to my daughter when she is old enough. If you love murder mysteries and cozy books, I highly suggest that you head Agatha Christies way if you haven't already! . . #bookreview #missmarple #agathachristie #tbr #apriltbr #fiction #murdermystery #books #booked #cozymurdermystery #cozymystery #booksbooksbooks #bookrecs #bookish #readstagram #bookstack #shelfie #bookshelf #booknook #whattoread #bookrecommendations #fyp #bookstagram #bookworm #booklover #reading #booklife #momlife #booklist #mommysgotabookobssession

Lettura scorrevolissima per la tappa di aprile della #readchristie2024 In questi 13 brevi racconti, Miss Marple risolve con una semplicità disarmante vecchi misteri irrisolti (tra inquietanti indovine, testamenti misteriosi e costumi sanguinanti), dimostrando una profonda conoscenza della natura umana pur non essendosi mai spostata dal paesello, perchè come afferma zia Jane "ricamando presso il caminetto si hanno un mucchio di occasioni" 🔥 #readingtime #agathachristie #readingchallenge #agathachristiebooks #booklover #missmarple #ticonsigliounlibro #pausalibrosa #passionelettura #biblioteca #oscarmondadori #raccontibrevi #dameagatha #missmarpleeitrediciproblemi

🌼 Panna Marple dowiaduje się, że jej znajomy, którego czytelnik miał okazję poznać przy lekturze "Karaibskiej tajemnicy" zmarł. Miał już on swoje lata, więc jego śmierć nikogo nie zdziwiła, natomiast zastanawiający okazał się jego testament i zadanie jakie pozostawił głównej bohaterce. Poprosił on ją o znalezienie mordercy, jednak nie podał żadnych szczegółów, czego sprawa dotyczy, kogo zamordowano, gdzie i kiedy. Panna Marple sama musi się domyślić co robić, lub poczekać na ewentualne wskazówki. Czy zdoła odgadnąć co pan Rafiel miał na myśli, pragnąc, by po raz kolejny wcieliła się w tytułową Nemezis? 🌼 Bardzo spodobała mi się ta sprawa i to, że nieco odbiegała od większości, które czytałam. Tym razem nie ma trupa, nie wiadomo czy kiedykolwiek był, gdzie, a może dopiero ma się pojawić. Panna Marple błądzi po omacku, zgadując gdzie może trafić na jakikolwiek trop. Na szczęście ma ona pewne cechy charakteru, które pomagają jej w podążaniu na przód. Gdy zagadka zaczęła się już klarować, czytelnik bardzo szybko mógł się domyślić co się stało, lub przynajmniej wiedzieć czego się spodziewać. Nie wiem czy niektóre wskazówki nie okazały się zbyt oczywiste, zbyt naprowadzające czytelnika do ostatecznych wniosków. Momentami fabuła była też nużąca, autorka wałkowała wciąż te same kwestie, bardzo pomału posuwając się ku rozwiązaniu zagadki. Poleciłabym "Nemezis" bardziej tym którzy swoją przygodę z kryminałami, zwłaszcza tymi klasycznymi, dopiero rozpoczynają, bo można się tu dobrze wczuć w rolę detektywa i spróbować wytypować sprawcę jeszcze zanim zrobi to Panna Marple. ~Romantyczna ❤️ 🌼 Za egzemplarz serdecznie dziękujemy @wydawnictwo_dolnoslaskie #nemezis #agathachristie #kryminał #crime #detective #pannamarple #missmarple #crimebooks #reading #lovereading #author #reader #readingtime #bookcover #czytaniejestfajne #czytambolubię #książkowezdjęcie #spring #book #książka #czytam #bookstagrampl #bookstagram #igreads #recenzjaksiazki #recenzja #bookphotography #igbooks #igreads Agatha Christie Nemezis książka czytam kryminał detektyw Panna Marple

It’s #firstlinefriday and which book starts in this seaside town?
#ReadChristie2024 This year’s Read Christie challenge from @OfficialAgathaChristie looks at her work by the decades they were published. We have moved to the 1930s, and April’s pick is The Murder at the Vicarage, first published in 1930. This was the first full-length mystery featuring Miss Marple, who had only appeared in some of Christie’s short stories. I enjoyed this reread, and it introduces the village of St. Mary Mead, which is not as idyllic as it appears on the surface. Narrated by the Vicar, The Reverend Clement, the mystery revolves around a suspicious death in the Vicar’s home while he is out. It’s up to his neighbor, the enigmatic Miss Marple, to help figure it out, as “there is no detective in England equal to a spinster lady of uncertain age with plenty of time on her hands.” SYNOPSIS: Miss Marple encounters a compelling murder mystery in the sleepy little village of St. Mary Mead, where under the seemingly peaceful exterior of an English country village lurks intrigue, guilt, deception, and death. Colonel Protheroe, local magistrate and overbearing land-owner is the most detested man in the village. Everyone—even the Vicar—wishes he were dead. And very soon he is—shot in the head in the Vicar’s own study. Faced with a surfeit of suspects, only the inscrutable Miss Marple can unravel the tangled web of clues that will lead to the unmasking of the killer. ☕️ My steep was Murder on the Orient Express Blend from Harney and Sons tea. I love pulling one of Harney’s Agatha Christie-inspired blends out when I read her books! This one blends black, oolong, and jasmine teas flavored with bergamot oil. QOTD: What are your plans for the weekend?
✨ #flatlayfriday ✨ Agatha Christie was my go-to author after I finished all the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew books and before I got serious about Stephen King. The grand dame of mystery, the Queen of Crime, Christie’s novels spanned decades (20’s-70’s) and she is widely regarded as one of the greatest writers of all time and is the best-selling author of all time with her novels selling more than 2 billion copies. Her most famous creations are detectives Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple, who incidentally never worked together. These books shown are mostly Poirot books. I believe I got these at a yard sale when I was a kid—someone was getting rid of a box-full. I also have several of her books that don’t have covers, which is the bane of my existence but when I was young I just wanted to read them, I didn’t care. Probably something like ten cents a book at a yard sale back then! These ones are all mid-60’s editions and when new were between 35-50 cents! All are US editions, some have alternate titles in the UK. I think my favorite thing about these are the old covers. I also love the dedication in Poirot Loses A Client: “TO DEAR PETER, MOST FAITHFUL OF FRIENDS AND DEAREST OF COMPANIONS, A DOG IN A THOUSAND”. 🐾 Say it with me now, awww! 🥰 Books highlighted: 🔍 Murder On The Links (1923) 🔎 Partners in Crime (1929) 🔍The Boomerang Clue (1933) 🔎 Cards on the Table (1936) 🔍 Poirot Loses a Client (1937) 🔎 An Overdose of Death (1940) 🔍 There is a Tide (1948) 🔎 So Many Steps to Death (1954) #books #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #reading #booklife #readersofinstagram #bookcommunity #booklove #horror #bookish #horrorbooks #horrorbooksofinstagram #mystery #suspense #agathachristie #herculepoirot #missmarple #classics #crimenovels #oldbooks

A small village, a hand full of suspects, one murder committed at the vicarage. How was it possible? Who was there at the time of the crime, and who had a motive? Can Miss Marple solve the mystery that puzzles everyone? The Murder at the Vicarage is Miss Marple’s first case and April’s #ReadChristie2024 pick. The delightful crime novel is told by the clergyman of St. Mary Mead, working together with an arrogant detective, only to have his clever and elderly neighbour Jane Marple put the pieces together. Even though Miss Marple isn’t as present in this novel as one might think in the beginning, her importance is inevitable as the story progresses. In the end, she is the one giving crucial clues and connecting the dots to convict the criminal.
😱 Not much longer to wait until your trip to Paris with reporter Abigail Dixon! "With a fast paced mystery, a "plucky" heroine, and even real-life characters Murder at the Paris Fashion House is a strong first in a new series. If you enjoy books set in the 1920s I highly recommend that you add this book to your Spring reading list. Just love a darn good mystery? Yep this one is for you too!" ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reader review 🔎 Don't miss out on Nancy Warren brand-new cozy mystery series and pre-order Murder at the Paris Fashion House today.

the moving finger by agatha christie rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ while i really enjoyed the first instalment in the miss marple series, the murder at the vicarage, and liked the second one, the body in the library, i‘m not a big fan of the moving finger. the mystery wasn‘t as interesting and, well, mysterious, the characters were a bit annoying at times and i thought that some parts were just unnecessary and boring because they didn’t add any depths to the plot at all. although i really loved the small village as a setting and the gossip surrounding every character and the crime(s) in the first two books, here, while still cozy, it seemed a bit shallow. however, it was definitely a fast and easy read that entertained me well enough, i guess. i‘ll definitely continue with the series and have quite high hopes that the 4th book in the series will be more to my taste again!
Nothing but appreciating my Christie stack! What is not to love about Christie and Hercule Poirot? And what’s to hate about Miss Marple? I am still adding more to my Christie collection and I’m hoping to get every copy, every edition there is!😍 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookworm #bookdragon #agathachristie #christies #herculepoirot #missmarple #mystery #queenofcrime #detective #thriller #bookshelf #tbr #readmorebooks #reading #currentlyreading
Siamo arrivati al passaggio di testimone: per la tappa di Aprile della #ReadChristie2024 lasciamo i ruggenti Anni Venti per inoltrarci negli Anni Trenta. Per iniziare questa nuova decade ho letto "Miss Marple e i tredici problemi" del 1932, con @radicalging e il Gruppo Telegram. Si tratta di una raccolta di tredici racconti in cui vengono proposti tredici problemi che verranno risolti, ovviamente, da Miss Marple. Inoltre, sempre con @radicalging e chi del Gruppo Telegram ha voluto, ho letto "Miss Marple. Dodici nuovi problemi", una raccolta di racconti pubblicata nel 2022 in cui dodici scrittrici raccolgono l'eredità di Agatha Christie e si mettono alla prova scrivendo ognuna una nuova avventura per Miss Marple. Per entrambe le raccolte ho un giudizio ampiamente positivo e ve ne parlo diffusamente sul blog (link in bio). Attenti agli spoiler, presenti ma ben segnalati, se non li avete letti. E voi come avete cominciato questa nuova avventura? Con un romanzo o una raccolta di racconti? Io devo dire che da convinta #teamromanzi con queste letture mi sono un po' ricreduta sui racconti perché mi sono davvero piaciuti.

"The worst is so often true..." 👵🏼 I recently discovered that I really really enjoy not only the Poirot series but also the Miss Marple books!😍 I just can't get over what a plotting mastermind Agatha Christie was and how good of an author she was at the same time!

25th April 🔫 We now enter the 1930’s with our #readchristie reads and join the marvellous Miss Marple in her first adventure. St Mary Mead is a typical, quiet English village, you know the sort, pretty little houses, a Manor House, local doctor, church and a few gossipy old ladies. It just so happens that these gossipy old ladies are a great help when a murder is committed! Colonel Protheroe is found dead, shot through the head, in the Vicar’s study. The village is stunned and the police are called in. The vicar, Rev Leonard Clement, narrates our story and he is such a fantastic character, I love his sense of humour and dry wit. One particularly nosey lady, who lives next to the vicarage is the formidable Miss Marple. She looks like butter wouldn’t melt with her knitting and her twinkling blue eyes and yet she is throwing some light on the going ons of the village that most villagers don’t know. “Why, one, two, three, four, five, six - yes, and a possible seven. I can think of at least seven people who might be very glad to have Colonel Protheroe out of the way” “Seven people? In St Mary Mead?” Miss Marple nodded brightly. My absolute favourite Miss Marple sort and one that I can read again and again and never tire of. . #agathachristie #agathachristiebooks #readchristie2024 #agathachristiefan #agathachristiebookclub #marple #missmarple #themurderatthevicarage #stmarymead #thereadchristieclub #crimefiction #agathachristiegram #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookschristieandacuppa
What an introduction The Murder at the Vicarage is to the wonderful Miss Marple!! Narrated from the perspective of Vicar, Leonard Clement, the reader is taken along the journey of the residents of St Mary Mead trying to unravel the mystery of who murdered Colonel Protheroe. Agatha Christie through the character of Jane Marple, highlights that despite one’s age, they can be just as canny and shrewd as younger people, and as in the case of Miss Marple, often a lot smarter!! What has always stood out for me is how Miss Marple uses her intuition to help her solve the mysteries she encounters, and in The Murder at the Vicarage we see Miss Marple explain this to Clement, “Intuition is like reading a word without having to spell it out….because they have seen it often before.” The reader also gains an insight into Miss Marple’s understanding of human nature, “the only way is to compare people to other people you have known or come across. You’d be surprised if you knew how very few distinct types there are in all.” It is this observation that Christies uses to set up how Miss Marple will solve all subsequent mysteries she comes across, and it becomes a staple in many of her novels that Miss Marple solves the mystery by relating it to an event or person she has come across before. Lastly, the other narrative element that Christie establishes in The Murder at the Vicarage, is how at first many are dismissive of Miss Marple, but in the end, they marvel at her cleverness, and this is best captured by the reaction of Colonel Melchett when Miss Marple reveals who killed Protheroe, why they did it, and how they did it. As observed by Clement, “all this time Colonel Melchett had sat like a man in a trance” and “was impressed with the logical certainty of Miss Marple’s conclusions”, sentiments that are to be repeated often by those who come across Miss Marpe. Another great selection from the Read Christie book club!! #readchristie2024 #missmarple #agathachristie #agathachristiequotes #missmarplequotes #bookclubreads #mysterynovel #mysterycrimebooks #missmarplenovels #themurderatthevicarage #bookreviewersofinstagram #britishcrimefiction #britishcrimewriters

„The Murder at the Vicarage“ was the first pick of the 1930s #ReadingPrompt of the #ReadChristie2024 Challenge. This is the first #MissMarple novel and thus an even more intriguing read. It is a mixture of #Crime, #Passion and #Romance. What I found particularly clever was the introduction of Miss Marple as a hobby-detective. You already get to know her well as a character and can see the features that later become significant for her. As always with Christie, we are in for strong female characters and interesting plot twists. The only downturn of the story was, that it took me a while as a reader, to get into it – meaning for the first 50-100 pages, the pacing was a bit off. However, the rest of the novel was a truly entertaining, which is why I gave it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 stars. #bookstagram #AgathaChristie #QueenofCrime #MurderMystery
A Morrissey favourite - Margaret Rutherford, in the film ‘Murder, She Said’ (1961) - a clip of which was screened at Morrissey’s pre-show entertainment in 2023. A rewrite of Agatha Christie’s ‘4:50 from Paddington’, the film begins cleverly with Miss Jane Marple (Rutherford) boarding a train, and seeing various passengers in the train passing by hers - including a murder in progress. Along with her male Librarian admirer, she seeks to solve the mystery when the police don’t take her seriously. Gaining a job as a very unlikely maid at nearby Ackenthorpe Hall, Jane lurks and snoops until finding the body of the murdered woman in the stables. A very clever tale with excellent acting by Rutherford, this story had me guessing right up until the end - although my suspicions on who the murderer was turned out to be correct, the motive was a surprise. Very funny too - that just like in ‘I’m a Stranger’, viewed earlier this week, there is an Inspector Craddock, who is referred to as Inspector Haddock! What are the chances? An excellent British film, that pays perfect homage to Agatha Christie herself.

-Tres ratones ciegos, Agatha Cristhie- Un libro de relatos más relevante que varias de sus obras. Poirot y Miss Marple juntos, pero no revueltos, en unas páginas llenas de misterio, suspenso y casos por resolver. Es un buen libro de la autora. Para variar, sí me gustó. Pude conocer a Miss Marple (¡por fin!). Me encanta. De hecho me gusta más que el famoso detective. Así que bien ahí señora Agatha, tiene mi atención una vez más y claro que quiero leer más de su querida señora bonachona y solterona. Calificación: 5 elotitos 🌽🌽🌽🌽 Es bueno. Un libro de cuentos para pasar el rato. Si te gusta la novela negra o quieres empezar con la autora, está es una excelente opción. El primer cuento es el más extenso y entretenido. Jamás verás venir ese final. Los otros cuentos más cortos brillan por su sencillez y su claro misterio que en tan solo poco páginas te atrapan y te mantienen con la intriga hasta el último renglón. Eso para mí tiene un valor enorme. Habla mucho de una calidad literaria y claro, una excelente habilidad para meter tanto misterio en unas cuántas páginas. Es un agasajo total. Ahora, nunca creí decir esto, pero para mí sorpresa, recomiendo conseguir el libro digital ya que viene más surtido. Cosa que no se puede decir del físico. Por razones que desconozco, el digital contiene tres cuentos más. No tengo idea del por qué. #agathachristie #agathachristiebooks #librodecuentos #librosmexico #terror #misterio #missmarple #hérculespoirot #thrillerbooks #recomendaciones #recomendacionesliterarias #reseñasdelibros #reseñasliterarias #book #bookstagram #followers

. Agatha Christie e il mistero della sua scomparsa di Jared Cade edito da @giulioperroneditore 2019, €18,00. ✒️Ho imparato a conoscere Zia Agatha ( 1891- 1976) attraverso alcuni libri letti in un lontano passato, ma non avevo approfondito la sua vita, soprattutto il mistero della sua scomparsa. Ho rimediato con questo saggio biografico, quasi un reportage con testimonianze di prima mano, documenti e foto inedite, che fa luce sugli 11 giorni di dicembre del 1926, in cui la scrittrice britannica esce di casa, si allontana da Styles e fa perdere le sue tracce. È a dir poco ammirevole se penso che la più grande scrittrice di gialli di tutti i tempi e la più tradotta al mondo, sia diventata protagonista di una sua storia, una fuga pontificata nei minimi dettagli: viene spontaneo chiedersi dove finisca la realtà e dove inizi la finzione. Donna enigmatica e passionale, moglie tradita e umiliata, ma mente geniale nell'architettare la sua fuga, si è registrata con il nome dell'amante del marito, Nancy Neele, presso l'Hotel Harrogate Hydro vessando proprio lui, Archie, che si sarebbe angosciato per la sua scomparsa. Decisa a fargli pagare la sua infedeltà, non sapeva di aver innescato una delle indagini più seguite dalla stampa e dal pubblico... A Jared Cade, che ha scritto questa acclamata biografia, è stato concesso di accedere a diari, corrispondenze, documenti privati da parte di famigliari e amici, affinché potesse ricostruire fedelmente la sua scomparsa e raccontare la sua vita privata. Consigliatissimo, per lettrici e lettori curiosi, e per chi ha adorato i suoi libri, non può farne a meno... Lettura per il #gdl #unannoingiallo che condivido con le mie compagne di viaggio!
This month’s selection for #ReadChristie2024 reading challenge from @officialagathachristie is Murder at the Vicarage. The overall theme for this year is Christie’s works through the decades and this is one of the books representing the 1930s. I read Agatha Christie’s Murder at the Vicarage for the second time about three years ago and my first photo is from my March 2021 post.To refresh my memory about the book before tomorrow’s discussion (See @officialagathachristie for more information), I Iistened to the audiobook this month. (➡️ Swipe to see a new photo of the audiobook.) I had heard good things about the narrator, and I agree that Richard E. Grant does a great job with all the characters in this delightful story. Of course, I love MIss Marple, but I also enjoy the character of Vicar Clement. In the story, it’s Clement who is telling the story about the case and his sense of humor is fantastic. The middle part of the story is a little slow for me, but when Leonard Clement and Jane Marple start comparing notes about the case of a man found dead at the vicarage, the book becomes hard to put down. This is Christie’s first full-length book to feature Miss Marple and it’s a great introduction to how observant she is and how her knowledge of human nature makes her an excellent amateur sleuth. #readersofinstagram #bookcommunity #dameagatha #readchristie2024 #readingchallenge #agathachristie #agathachristiefan #favoriteaurhors #missmarple #murderatthevicarage #audiobook #richardegrant #mysterybook #aprilreads #cozycrime #bookwormlife
"Por un instante, los dos trenes circularon paralelos. En ese preciso momento, Elspeth McGillicuddy presenció un asesinato"🔎 Tenía muchas ganas de leer este libro: ¿un asesinato en el tren de enfrente sin más testigos que una única persona a la que nadie cree? ¿Cómo puede resolverse eso? Tengo que admitir que el desarrollo de la historia no ha sido lo que me había imaginado, pero es normal porque nuestra imaginación muchas veces va más allá. Aún así, ha sido una lectura agradable y entretenida. Lo más divertido para mí, como suele pasar con estos libros, ha sido intentar ir desvelando por mi cuenta quién podría haber cometido el crimen conforme iba avanzando en la lectura. No quiero decir mucho más para no desvelar nada, pero hay un personaje en concreto que me encantó, y que me encantaría que saliera en más libros junto a Miss Marple🥹 Nos encontramos con un libro ameno y ligero, que se lee fácilmente y que puede convertirse en un entretenimiento añadido o un reto si intentas resolver el caso a medida que vas leyendo. Para mí, la mayor pega fue que el final se me hizo bastante brusco y sin mucha explicación/justificación. Me quedé un poco chafada y esperaba algo más. De nuevo, nuestra querida miss Marple sigue tan genial como siempre. 3/5⭐ ¿Os gustan las novelas de Agatha Christie? ¿Esta os gustó/os llama la atención?

Poirot or Marple? We’ve entered the 1930s in #readchristie2024 , and this month’s @officialagathachristie pick was The Murder at the Vicarage, Miss Marple’s first full-length novel. Even though Poirot is my love, I do like Miss Marple a lot, and mostly I love what she stands for: women being smarter than everyone else. For funsies I decided to listen to a radio dramatization since I’ve read this book many times. It was really well done, with voices fitting characters perfectly and lots of words directly from the book. It was released in 1993, with June Whitfield as Miss Marple and Imelda Staunton as Griselda. I think the vicar as narrator is very entertaining, and I laugh at how law enforcement officials just let him be part of their interviews and everyone in the village reports to him about their theories and personal dramas. The vicar could have had his own mystery series! Or maybe Father Brown has that covered. If you loved these characters, don’t forget that Val McDermid wrote a short story called “The Second Murder at the Vicarage” in the Marple short story collection. It’s very fun. I don’t have many of these newer Marple covers because I collect the older paperbacks. But this was super cheap at my library’s used book sale and I couldn’t resist. I do think these Marple covers are pretty. Btw I am SO excited about the new US Poirot covers that are starting to be rolled out this year. If you go to the William Morrow website you can see them. #beautifulbooks #coverlove #bookphotograph #bookstagram #readchristie #fullonagatha #agathachristie #dameagathachristie #booklover #agathachristiebooks #christiebooks #bibliophile #agatha #booksofinstagram #queenofcrime #igreads #thereadchristieclub #murdermystery #murdersheread #goldenageofcrime #mystery #classiccrime #whodunnit #booksofinstagram #crimeclassics #themurderatthevicarage #missmarple

📚 What is a book that you can’t stop thinking about? Hi everyone, I hope you are all having a nice week ☺️ the lovely @thedragonsden_ tagged me to do the book math challenge & it was a lot of fun to think about and put the list together! ➕Addition - Most recent purchase I’m cheating for this one & picking 2 recent purchases, one is A Fate Inked in Blood which I bought after reading @heddas.bookgems ‘s review & the other is a collection of Miss Marple stories by Agatha Christie that I picked up from a secondhand bookstore ☺️ ➖ Subtraction - Last physical book read The last physical book I finished was Divine Rivals which I really enjoyed 🥰 it was such a sweet story & was just everything I needed it to be at the time. ✖️ Multiplication - Favourite book by a favourite author I chose Memories of Ice for this prompt. So much happens in this book & I was quite emotional throughout it. It’s still my favourite of the Malazan books so far & I’ve gushed about this one many times. ➗ Division - A favourite book in a favourite series I had to choose A Storm of Swords for this prompt. This book was so intense, so many enormous things happened & my opinions about certain characters changed completely across the course of this book. Such a masterpiece. 🟰 Equals - A book you want to reread The Lies of Locke Lamora is the book I want to reread the most. It is a few years since I read & enjoyed this book & I want to continue with the series. Definitely would like to reread this one before the end of the year 🤞🏻 🖤 Exponent - A hyped book you love I had to choose Piranesi for this one. I just loved how this book was written & Piranesi as a character. Highly recommend checking this book out if you haven’t already. ♾️ Infinity - A book you can’t stop thinking about I am cheating for this one by picking a series but it has to be Berserk 😂 there is no other option for me. I haven’t stopped thinking about this story since I first read it 3 years ago. It’s amazing & is still my all time favourite story. It has some of the best character arcs I’ve ever seen, the art is phenomenal & the story itself is so intense & gripping. Take care everyone 💕
"La plume empoisonnée" d'Agatha Christie aux éditions @livredepoche Cela faisait presque un an que je n'avais pas lu un roman de la reine du crime et cela me manquait beaucoup. J'ai choisi un miss Marple, qui est mon personnage préféré d'Agatha Christie. Jerry Burton a des soucis de santé et doit donc se reposer dans un endroit tranquille. Avec sa sœur Joanna, il jette son dévolu sur Lymstock, une petite bourgade de la campagne anglaise. Là ils vont découvrir tous les habitants du village et entretenir de bons rapports de voisinage. Mais un corbeau sévit dans la région et bientôt Jerry reçoit lui aussi une lettre anonyme. Quand une habitante du village se donne la mort, Jerry et Joanna vont tenter de découvrir qui est derrière tout ça. Mais il faudra toute la perspicacité de Jane Marple pour comprendre le mystère. J'ai beaucoup aimé ce roman avec un duo frère /sœur très attachant. Les habitants du village sont pittoresques et on passe un bon moment en leur compagnie. Néanmoins j'ai regretté que Jane Marple n'apparaisse qu'à la fin du roman. Pendant une grande partie du livre je me suis demandé si je ne m'étais pas trompée et que ce n'était pas un miss Marple. J'ai quand même adoré ma lecture et je n'attendrais pas un an de plus pour lire un autre roman d'Agatha Christie. #agathachristie #missmarple #romanpolicier #campagneanglaise #bookstagram #pal #bookstagramfrance #lecture #book #avisdelecture

Mijn derde Christie-boek is uit en ik ben echt zo blij dat ik door Bookstagram deze uitgaven heb leren kennen, want ik vond ook dit verhaal weer heerlijk 🤍 Deze keer had ik beter grip op alle personages (bij de eerste twee boeken die ik las bleef ik maar terugbladeren 😆), maar verder was de oplossing van het moordmysterie wederom één groot vraagteken voor me 🧐 Het verhaal kabbelde heerlijk voort, ik genoot van de setting en de conversaties, er werden steeds meer details bekend en toen de ontknoping naderde keken de jongens net iets langer tv dan de bedoeling was, want hun mama moest er achter komen wie het had gedaan 🤓 De boeken aan de rechterkant van de foto staan nog op me te wachten en ik kijk er nu al naar uit! #moordindebibliotheek #agathachristie #uitgeverijrainbow #missmarple #moordmysterie #detective #fictie #roman #bookstagram #booksofinstagram

The great Agatha Christie, writer of so many of the mystery genre Classics, from the little Belgian hercule poirot, to the busy body Miss. Marple, and the Mousetrap the longest running play on the wast end for over 75 years. It was designed by sculptor Ben Twiston-Davies And erected in 2012. #agathachristie #herculepoirot #murdermystery #mousetrap #missmarple #book #status #london #theaterland
Here's something different for tonight's post. A little Miss Marple for you. I don't know why but, I liked her version the most. We saw more of here. The other ones you hardly saw them, especially Joan's version. I don't wanna see the guest actors, I wanna see Jane solving the case, not them. I like Julia a lot. I know you guys liked Joan the best. Not me though. #actress #british #juliamckenzie #missmarple #agathachristie #agathacridtiemissmarple #books #movies #novels #throwback
Rereading Agatha Christie's first Miss Marple novel, "The Murder at the Vicarage" (though not Miss M's first appearance - that would be in some slightly earlier short stories), and since my memory is completely hazy as to the identity of the killer, I have to guess the Vicar (or one of his household), because what kind of normal person would arrange their study this way?!?! #murderatthevıcarage #themurderatthevicarage #agathachristie #missmarple #terribleinteriordesign #murdermysteries #mysterynovelfloorplans #murdermystery
Book Review Sleeping Murder By Agatha Christie ⭐⭐⭐⭐ - 4 stars Summary - Gwenda moves to England for the first time from New Zealand and buys a house for her and her husband, Giles. But something about the house seems very familiar. When she knows things about the house that she shouldn't know, Gwenda starts to get worried. This comes to a head when she remembers a woman called Helen being strangled in the house. She and Giles set out to find out who Helen could have been, if she has been murdered and if she has, who did it? Review - After reading The Moving Finger in January, this felt like much more of a return to classic Miss Marple for me. I enjoyed reading this one. This was a great mystery. I had previously seen the television episode based on this book so I did know the plot already, but it didn't take away from my enjoyment of the book. I think if I didn't already know the plot, I wouldn't have guessed the solution to the mystery. It was very clever. Gwenda was a very likeable character and I enjoyed following her and Giles in the story. However, there was also plenty of Miss Marple so I felt like the book struck a nice balance between them. I would definitely recommend this Miss Marple book if you like mystery and crime books. Christie's books are always nice, quick reads. I think this may be one of my favourite Miss Marple books so far. #bookstagram #sleepingmurder #agathachristie #missmarple
Agatha Christie: Mord im Pfarrhaus 📘⛪ Im April stehen die 1930er Jahre im Mittelpunkt der Challenge #readchristie2024 😊 Ich habe mich für einen Re-Read von "Mord im Pfarrhaus" entschieden, dem ersten Roman mit Miss Marple! Reverend Clement hat alle Hände voll zu tun in St Mary Mead. Immer gibt es etwas zu tun für den Vikar des Dorfes. So sucht auch Colonel Protheroe ihn auf. Als Clement zu spät zu dieser Verabredung im Pfarrhaus auftaucht, findet er den Colonel erschossen vor. 🔫 Schnell stellt sich heraus, dass viele Personen ein Motiv hatten, den Colonel aus dem Weg zu schaffen. Reverend Clement steht der Polizei bei ihren Ermittlungen zur Seite und auch eine Nachbarin begibt sich auf Spurensuche: Miss Marple. 🔍 Ich war im Nachhinein überrascht, dass ich dem Roman bei der ersten Lektüre nur 3/5 Sterne gegeben habe und korrigiere meine Bewertung diesmal hoch auf 4/5! ⭐ Miss Marple nochmal ganz neu kennenzulernen hat viel Spaß gemacht und auch die anderen Bewohner*innen des urigen Dorfes, allen voran der Reverend und seine Frau, bilden einen vielschichtigen und unterhaltsamen Cast. Das ein oder andere Detail scheint zwar weit hergeholt, trotzdem ergibt sich ein spannender Fall! 👍 #bookstagram #bookstagramgermany #germanbookstagram #bookstagramdeutschland #instabooks #buchblog #buchblogger #buchbloggerin #booknerd #booklover #bookaholic #bibliophile #booksbooksbooks #ilovebooks #bookcommunity #reading #lektüre #lesen #buch #bücher #literatur #lesenmachtglücklich #aesthetic #bookaesthetic #agathachristie #agathachristiebooks #missmarple #crime #cozycrime

"There is no detective in England equal to a spinster lady of uncertain age with plenty of time on her hands." Nearly missed my train this morning because I had to get to the end of The Murder at the Vicarage. Needless to say, I enjoyed my first Marple. I loved the claustrophobic village setting, the local gossips, the carefully plotted murder, and the subtle commentary on ageism and classism (our detectives would have gotten a lot further if they hadn't automatically discounted evidence from people they deemed senile or 'unrefined'). And of course, Miss Marple. Underestimated by nearly all but ultimately the most competent detective around. A lot more modest than Poirot, but just as effective. I can't wait to read more stories from St. Mary Mead. . . . #themurderatthevicarage #agathachristie #missmarple #readchristie2024 #queenofcrime #bookstagramuk
💬 "To have one murder in one's vicarage is unfortunate; to have a second looks remarkably like carelessness, or worse." - Val McDermid, 'The Second Murder at the Vicarage' Starring familiar characters from St Mary Mead, Miss Marple's skills of deduction are needed once again to solve this baffling mystery. #AgathaChristie #Marple #MissMarple #ValMcDermid #ShortStoryCollection #ShortStories #MurderMystery #CrimeFiction
Agatha Christie - Istantanea di un delitto Collana Oscar Mondadori di @librimondadori Un'anziana signora afferma di aver assistito, dal finestrino del treno su cui stava viaggiando, al delitto di una donna strangolata da un uomo a bordo di un treno che viaggiava nella stessa direzione ma su un altro binario. Si confida subito con l'amica Jane Marple che però manifesta perplessità circa il racconto udito. Le due donne si trovano così coinvolte in una storia di dissidi e contrasti di famiglia in una tenuta che si rivela, dopo ricerche infruttuose, il nascondiglio del corpo della donna uccisa sul treno, che inizialmente viene identificata come la vedova di uno dei figli del proprietario della tenuta. Ma la realtà svelata da miss Marple è molto differente. Sfondo del libro una proprietà nella campagna inglese che vede contrapposti l'anziano proprietario e i suoi figli, che vorrebbero disfarsi della vetusta e dispendiosa tenuta e realizzare del contante da impiegare nei rispettivi progetti. Tra gli aspiranti eredi non corre buon sangue, men che meno tra essi e l'anziano genitore. Miss Marple arriva quindi ad esaminare le complicate dinamiche dell'avida famiglia per aiutare l'ispettore Craddock di Scotland Yard a comprendere perché il corpo della donna uccisa sul treno si trovasse nelle pertinenze della magione. Avete letto le avventure della curiosa vecchietta nata dalla prolifica penna di Agatha Christie? #missmarple #agathachristie #oscarmondadori #librigialli
Kraljica krimića, Agatha Christie svoj prvi roman napisala je zbog oklade sa sestrom. U tom romanu prvi put spominje se lik Herculea Poirota.🔎 U nastavku donosimo neke zanimljivosti o Agathi Christie 👇👇👇 Napisala je 66 kriminalističkih romana, 6 romana i više od 150 kratkih priča. Kriminalistička drama Mišolovka do danas je ostala jedna od najizvođenijih drama svih vremena na londonskom West Endu. Njezine knjige prevedene su na više od 100 jezika i prodane u više od dvije milijarde primjeraka. Prema Guinessovoj knjizi rekorda najprodavanija je autorica na svijetu. ✅ Agatha Christie bila je iznimna žena i imala je širok spektar znanja, a za vrijeme Prvog svjetskog rata radila je u ljekarni gdje je naučila sve o otrovima. Upravo zato su otrovi bili čest način ubojstva u njezinim romanima. 🧪 Njezin najpopularniji lik je osebujan i nadasve pametan detektiv Hercule Poirot, a po popularnosti u stopu ga prati i Miss Marple. 🔎 Hercule Poirot jedini je izmišljen link čija je osmrtnica objavljena u New York Timesu. 📰 Koja vam je priča Agathe Christie najviše ostala u sjećanju?

#readChristie2024 🃏 Cards on the Table / Mit offenen Karten 🃏 Mr. Shaitana ist ein außergewöhnlicher Mann, der eine außergewöhnliche Party gibt: Die Gäste sind vier Ermittler*innen und vier Personen, die einen Mord begangen haben und nie verurteilt wurden - zumindest meint Shaitana das zu wissen. Doch als sich die Gäste in einer Partie Bridge vertiefen, gibt es einen Mord. Wie konnte sich jemand vom Kartenspiel wegschleichen? Hatte jemand Angst, dass sein altes Verbrechen ans Licht kommt? Hercule Poirot, Colonel Race, Superintendent Battle und die Kriminalschriftstellerin Ariadne Oliver müssen mit vereinten Kräften ermitteln… Dieses Buch ist ein neuer Lieblingsfall für mich 🥰 Ich LIEBE die Prämisse - 4 Mörder, 4 Ermittler, ein rätselhafter Gastgeber, ein Mord. Außerdem gefällt mir, dass die vier Ermittelnden sich das Rampenlicht teilen und mal die eine, mal die andere Methode richtig ist. ✨ Der Fall ist spannend und voller Twists, gut strukturiert und nachvollziehbar. Einziges Manko: Manche Passagen sind schwer oder kaum zu verstehen, wenn man nicht weiß, wie das Spiel Bridge funktioniert. 1934 in England konnte man das voraussetzen. Ich weiß es nicht. 😂 Mein Highlight war aber Mrs. Oliver, Christies literarisches Alter Ego. Sie hat dem Fall eine lustige und feministische Note gegeben. Fazit: 9,5/10 🌟 . . . #TheMurderOfRogerAckroyd #Alibi #bücher #bücherliebe #Bücherwurm #christie #agathachristie #agathachristiebooks #poirot #marple #herculepoirot #missmarple #TommyAndTuppence #christie #cosycrime #classiccrime #crimeclassics #krimi #krimiautorin #krimisschreiben #lesen #lesechallenge #leseziel #bücherwurm #bookworm #bookstagram #bookstagramgermany Krimis / Christie / Poirot / Marple / Bücher / Lesen
#readchristie2024 by @officialagathachristie is entering the 1930’s this month and I chose a reread of the first Miss Marple book The Murder at the Vicarage which I first read many years ago as a teenager. I love the cosy village setting and the cast of interesting characters who are definitely not all that they seem to be. * * * #agathachristie #murderatthevicarage #missmarple #janemarple #goldenageofcrimefiction #vintagecrimefiction #vintagefontanabooks #bookstagram #booklover #bookcollector #bookworm #booksbooksbooks
