Okay, so I'm a fan of Miss Marple, and this is a fine story, so on that count I give it five stars.
But in reading it on the Kindle, while the visual format is fine, there is a rather annoying problem: all speaking parts begin with a reverse apostrophy instead of a quotation. The effect of this is that when your start the text-to-speach (TTS) function, every speaking part opens with the Kindle saying "backquote," as in
'I did not commit that murder!' being read as "backquoteI did not commit that murder." Minus two stars.
Perhaps the publisher will fix that and push the repaired version to our Kindles. Or maybe it's just a new technique for saying on th ebook page that TTS is enabled, but still maintain their audiobook sales.Get more detail about The Body in the Library: A Miss Marple Mystery.
