4:50 from Paddington (Miss Marple, #7)4:50 from Paddington by Agatha Christie
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Mystery re-read just in time for Xmas. Because, as you well know, cozy murder mysteries SCREAM "the holidays". Tell me I'm wrong. Go on.

This one isn't one of my favorites, but it's quite fun and has a bit more plot and movement than most, and the characters are a hoot. Gotta love families. Or don't. Just poison them or do a bit of strangling. It's all about the SPIRIT of the thing.

Christie is a classic, no doubt, and Miss Marple is one hell of a sassy old lady. Good team up, too.
