Quirky murder mystery

The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman is a witty, enjoyable read with a clever mystery at its heart. Set in a peaceful retirement village, the story follows a group of elderly friends who meet weekly to solve cold cases—until they stumble upon a real murder.

Osman's humor and the quirky characters shine throughout, making the book lighthearted despite its dark subject matter. The mystery is well-plotted with twists that keep you guessing, though the multiple subplots can feel a bit crowded at times. While the pacing dips here and there, the charm and humor kept me engaged.

Overall, it’s a fun mystery with plenty of twists and a lot of heart
