Miss Marple: The Complete Short Stories is a short story collection by Agatha Christie. It follows
Miss Jane Marple, one of Christie’s iconic characters, as she solves mysteries using her
knowledge of past experiences and human nature. There are 20 short stories in total included in
the collection.
This short story collection is a perfect introduction to Christie’s novels. Each short story is
interesting and different from the last. None of them drag on too long or feel too short, and each
has a satisfying solution. Not all of the stories are earth-shattering, but the majority of them are
gripping and entertaining. The whole book feels quaint and serves as a fun, quick read.
I recommend this book to anyone who loves murder mysteries or wants an introduction to
Christie's work. I rate this book 4 stars.
