The Body in the Library

Enjoyable little story. I didn't guess the killer. I still don't find Miss Marple herself all that likable.
This was the first Agatha Christie book I ever read and m now 30 years later I returned to it. There was definitely some nostalgia at the beginning of the book, but then I was drawn in to the story. I was surprised by the solution and by the way Miss Marple investigated. I am impressed with the way the mystery holds up after all this time. I can see this reread setting me on a path of reading Christie books just like it did 30 years ago.
The ableism? Not here for it. It was gross. Everything else, pretty good. I really enjoy how cavalier people are in Miss Marple books about murder. It's such a spectacle. It's like a sporting event that people get so excited for.
