I was in a reading slump and I really didn't feel like reading this. But since I picked this from the library I had to give it back soon so I read it. It was so much fun. It's accessible, so easy to read and it's such a cosy murder mystery. I love trying to figure out the murderer it's especially great when it makes sense. Even though I didn't guess correctly looking back at it there were definitely signs that I missed.

An enjoyable Miss Marple book! I haven't read this one before, so the story was all new to me. I enjoyed how she wove the nursery rhyme into the story and had it not be a straight shot to the killer. Enjoyable and I'm starting to like the Marple books more.
