I give it 8 I liked the book alot but there are better Miss Marple books and I don't think it is one I would read again.

I would give it a 9. The TV adaption was actually one of the better ones.

I assume you mean the Joan Hickso one Arlena although the GM one was O.K. until the end wich they changed, I would have liked it better if Colonel Clithering had been in it as in the book and if Jack Davenport had played Slack, Stephen Tompkinson's Slack was as dull as dishwater.

This was my Second AC but it really sparked my intrest. 8/10.. HATED The McEwan Version (5/10) Totally Changed the ending. Hickson (8/10) Good Cast Great Intrerpretation

I thought David Walliams was well cast, Only 2 people could in my view play George Bartlett - Him and the man who playeed him in the JH version. I have since seen him in a Polliekoff play and I think he is a great Actor I prefer him as an actor to a Comedian

The Body in the Library was the second Miss Marple book that I read. This is the book that got me hooked. I ended up reading and collecting all of the Miss Marple short stories and novels. Ever since then I have not been able to stop reading Agatha Christie. I give this novel 8/10. How about everybody else?
