May be the series I’ve reread most this decade! The Thursday Murder Club and their adventures are always a delight, and a go-to comfort read for me.

i don't have much to say about this one, probably because i crammed the last 7ish hours on 1.5x speed today and my brain is no longer forming coherent thoughts. very, very british, especially the humor. pretty enjoyable. listening to this sort of book on audio always leaves me a bit nonplussed and confused, but i think i got most of what happened. the characters were very fleshed out and had their own believable traits and backstories. i enjoyed that osman didn't make them all these helpless old people and instead gave them agency and courage. i'm definitely interested in continuing to the next book.

I love the characters in this book, the dry humor, and the many twists in a plot that remains accessible yet full of surprises. I also really enjoyed the many different view points and the short chapters that made it easy to pick this book up and read for a few minutes or a few hours. A perfect mystery for me (and really more than one mystery solved). I can’t wait to read the next book in the series!

I liked this. It was a cozy mystery, with a wonderful cast of old characters. Quite refreshing seeing elderly people in the center of a book.
I will say this did nothing extraordinary for me - yes it was enjoyable, but I will not continue on in the series. I think this book can stand on it's own very well.
