Summary: Surprisingly, my favorite.
Review: One of my favorite Agatha Christie books! It's kind of slowpaced, but nonetheless, had my head spinning in circles, just like any other of Dame Agatha Christie's books. I enjoy this kind of book, less action filled and more... realistic.

Summary: A BOOK THAT IMITATES LIFE
Review: Other readers have criticized this book as being boring or lax in the action department. However, I think that Dame Agatha didn't go out to lunch in this one--she just wrote a book that falls in closely to real life.I have been a detective for 11 years and I can tell you that not every homicide has cutting edge action. There are tiresome investigations, questioning, dead-end leads, and many more things that would lull any human to sleep. Christie must have known that sometimes things aren't that interesting and can't always be some cop and robber chase scene. Miss Marple is merely taking things slowly (as she should--she's not young anymore) and gathering the evidence prudently. Perhaps Christie really did have a dry spell and this was the result of it. She may not have been trying to make a realistic book. In any event, the fact is this book is realistic, by chance or purpose it matters not.

Summary: This was the Winner
Review: The Body In The Library was a very appealing novel. It caught my attention and kept my interests. The author, Agatha Christie did a wonderful job of portraying the character Miss Marple. She did a great job of keeping the curiousity of the reader. I am not a big reader and this novel captured my attention right away. The body of the beautiful blonde found in the library was a great way to introduce mystery. The fact that no one knew who she was or how she got there was personally intriguing. Marple's techniques in finding the killer were smartand sharply thought out. She reminds me of Matlock because she tricks the accused into leading her to the truth. I think this novel is a great mystery for all students to read. I recommend it to all who enjoy thriller novels.

Summary: Trap for a Villian
Review: This book by Agatha Christie is very interesting. When you read this book, it feels like that you are one of the policemen investigating this case. People who likes to read mystery must read this book. This book is about a body of a beautiful blonde girl had been discovered in the hearth-rug in Gossington Hall, the place where Colonel Bantry lived. They did not know that girl and have no clue how did she got into Gossington Hall. Colonel Melchett was responsible for this case. Later, he identified that the girl was named Ruby Keene, and she was a dancer at the Majestic Hotel. The policemen questioned everyone who knew Ruby Keene. Meanwhile, Mrs. Bantry wanted to solve this case by herself, so she called an old friend called Jane Marple and asked her to help in investigating the case.They searched for clues for many days and Jane Marple was positive that she knew who was the murderer. She decided to make a trap and catch that villian once and for all. If you wanted to know what happened, read the book yourself. This is my first time reading books from Agatha Christie. My friend said that it was very good and suggested me to read one of her books. Now, I recommend this book to every mystery lovers in the whole universe.

Summary: Boaring
Review: This book was the first Agatha Christie book I read, and I thought it was boaring. So I thought that Christie wasent a really good writer. But then I read some of her other books, and they were great! I recomend to all: Don't read this book. I think you will find it boaring. (I want to get in contact with other Agatha Christie fans. I am a 12 yeard old girl from Norway.)

Summary: The Body in the Library
Review: This is a good mystery. Miss Marple is right in the midst of all the action. My only complaint is that as Miss Marple is explaining how the murderer committed the crime she states they did something which must have been impossible. I can't go into more detail without ruining the mystery. It's still a good book. Very suspenseful.
Rating:

Summary: A must read for anyone who loves mysteries
Review: This was the very first Dame Agatha Christie book that I ever read. Although it is not one of the very best, it is still great, and deserves five stars. Being the first Christie book I ever read, it gave me my first impression of Christie's writing style-a great one. You really had to pay attention to every detail to solve this mystery along with Miss Marple-my favorite amateur sleuth. THE BODY IN THE LIBRARY is a great book and I recommend it to any Christie fan.
