Miss Marple Takes Manhattan by Alyssa Cole - Quite a different take on a Miss Marple story, not sure it really worked for me. Much more social commentary than mystery (there's not much of a mystery at all). Didn't really like the way Marple was portrayed, it didn't feel like the character I love.

Evil in Small Places - Lucy Foley
I'm a Lucy Foley fan so really enjoyed this, Foley manages to cram a proper who dunnit with several suspects into not very many pages with clues along the way. 4.5/5
The Second Murder at the Vicarage - Val McDermid
Murder at the Vicarage is one of the few Marple books I've read so enjoyed revisiting the characters and it felt similar in style. Only criticism is the ending 4/5
