Welcome to Litsy!

The gang‘s all here for another heartwarming murder mystery. Can‘t get enough of these books and this was my favourite in the series so far. Not my usual cup of tea but for some reason these just really work. Rolling straight into the next one.

Another great installment of this mystery series revolved around a group of retirees who live to solve unsolved crimes. I‘m apprehensive about the next book, as I think our hearts are going to be broken. I definitely recommend this series. 4.25⭐️

Number 3 in the Thursday Murder Club is my favorite so far. I just love the cast of characters and the snarky humor, combined with a good mystery and so much heart ❤️ This is my January ##Doublespin @TheAromaofBooks

My first 6 of 2024. All enjoyable, but a few were underwhelming. The Bullet That Missed cemented my love for The Thursday Murder Club series. The Push will stay with me for a long time. Mythos was so well done…I just don‘t like Greek myths it turns out, however accessibly written they are.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My final read for 2023. Looking forward to diving into my #AuldLangSpine read tomorrow.

Happy New Year, #Littens 💜

This series just keeps getting better and better! Loved this one!

Another brilliant installment in The Thursday Murder Club series. I can tell that in the next book, we will start to see the beginning of the end for some. It makes me sad. In the meantime, though, there is murder, mystery, money, mayhem, and more for the Club. Together, they are remarkable and I love their accumulation of new “members”. May they live long and prosper. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We went camping this weekend and I got to finish this lovely book by the fire. I love this gang so much! I kept giggling to myself and was getting strange looks from the friends we were with 😅
The mystery was just as riveting and, combined with the short chapters, I blew through this story to find out how it ended.

It seems like everyone has moved on to book 4, and I'm slowly limping along behind. Oh well, these are about (fictional) cold cases anyway! This one was another delight. 💚

This was my #bookspin for October. @TheAromaofBooks

This has been my favorite of the series so far. 4.5 ⭐

I thoroughly enjoyed this third book in the series. Great plotting, engaging characters and Osman‘s dry sense of humour. A cosy, comforting read with a fun puzzle to keep you guessing. Skilfully done. I highly recommend if you like murder mysteries with a British sensibility.

Third in the series. Another great instalment! Such fun and entertaining reads with fantastic characters. Looking forward to the fourth book!

Reading this with my local book group. We‘re reading two books this time as we‘re not meeting again until the end of September. I loved the first two in the Thursday Murder Club series so hopefully I will very much enjoy this one, the third, too.

Thursday Murder Club books are getting better and better :)
Quirky, funny, delightful and witty. The writing is great, the characters are interesting and the story is full of feel-good vibes :)
I really enjoy this series and can't wait for the next installment “The Last Devil to Die“

An epic third installment! I‘m so excited for whenever the fourth is coming out!
Osman makes me laugh and cry in the span of a sentence. I feel like in this book especially, the message is really that people will surprise you, often for the better, so don‘t underestimate them. We also added some new characters to the gang that I love equally now!

The gang are investigating the cold case of a journalist who apparently drove off a cliff into the sea while working on uncovering a VAT scam. CCTV captured an image of someone in the car with her on the way to the cliff but who?

My heart did sink a bit when one of the baddies from the previous book put in an appearance in this book because I don't like recurring villains but actually it was very well done. Can't wait for the next one.

I‘m excited to try #BookSpinBingo for July! It‘s likely that I will just read the books I‘m most drawn to regardless, but I love the fun of anticipating the bingo board 🤭 This is a month where I have a lot of free time (in theory) so I hope that means lots more reading! @TheAromaofBooks

Finished on Thursday last, so fitting for the Thursday Murder Club. I‘m late to the party with this series as my new work colleague recommended it 2 months ago & I‘ve now binged the 3 available books & can‘t wait for the 4th. The books have me chuckling one minute, trying to outsmart these lovable pensioners the next minute & finally tearing up with all the emotions. In this one, the crew is working on a cold case while Elizabeth is faced with ⬇️

Maybe it‘s because this series is a recent fave (I binged the first two books & my hold for the third tagged book just came in & I‘m trying to clear reading space for it this week), but I feel the core four elderly friends in the Thursday Murder Club have a definite #StandByMe vibe with each other & the friends they have picked up along the way.
They have each other‘s back “Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me…” ❤️

The Thursday Murder Club stories are pure fun and I can‘t wait for the next one.This, the third in series, has a twisted plot, and the final reveals are almost ridiculously complicated but it works! I have always loved the Greek chorus role played by Joyce‘s diary entries. The other members of the gang are all here, although their lives are changing. When we lose Stephen, literally or mentally, it will break my heart. This again, is a must read!

The Osman magic continues! Considering the unbroken streak of three books as good or better than each of their predecessors, I hope this is a long running series...eagerly awaiting my library's acquisition of the latest.
Such compassion in how people are viewed and treated, flaws and all, and yet, chock full of dangerous hijinks! 1/2

5-20-23: My 55th finished book of 2023! Book 3 of this fabulous series. The Thursday Murder Club is back! This time around they are joined by a KGB colonel, a Viking, a chief constable who fancies himself a writer, a TV host and his makeup woman, Alan the dog. 10 years ago, Bethany Waites was murdered but the case was never solved. Leave it up to this gang to figure it out. Full of heart and laughter as usual. Can‘t wait for book 4!

Another fabulous fun read from Osman. Exciting, endearing, weirdly realistic and thoroughly bonkers in its British humour. Can't wait for the next one!

Another excellent book in the Thursday Murder Club series. Took me a while to get into this one (possibly my mood rather than the book) but loved the way it came together at the end and the twists. Good couple of new characters added for this book, I hope they appear in the next one.

This was a hard pick for me, A Court of Silver Flames and Black Cale were both really amazing too. But I love to have a month that is choose!

I read so many books from #MountTBR in March! While I enjoyed them all, The Bullet that Missed (signed, from @larkandowlbooksellers ) and Black Cake were my favorites. Some great #botm books too!

The Thursday Murder Club take an interest in two murders, ten years apart. Elizabeth is given a mission…kill or be killed. She contemplates what to do and with the support of her best friends, local TV stars and ex KGB, can the new mystery be solved before it‘s too late?
When reading cosy mysteries they can be dull and lack excitement but this story is action packed throughout. A wonderful set of characters, british humour and full of quirkiness.

Really enjoyed this one too. I enjoy each one more as I go along

Starting this today. Hope it‘s as good as the previous two.

So good! I loved being back with the brilliant gang from Coopers Chase again, embracing life and solving mysteries. They keep adding characters to their found family, and I enjoy every minute! Finished this one after helping to set up for a friend‘s wedding and waiting for the DJ to set up. They have books as part of their centerpieces so it seemed fitting to snap a photo! #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I love my Wednesday mornings at the library cafe. An easy read and good coffee is the best way to tackle the mid-week blahs.

1. Love the Thursday Murder Club!

Just like others have said, I think this series gets better with each new book. I enjoyed the character interactions more in this one.

Ready to go! #BookSpinBingo

I loved this so much. I can‘t wait for the next one.

This series just gets better and better! I continue to love these books, and I can‘t wait for the fourth to release later this year. Love these characters so much!

I planned to finish Six of Crows for #20in4 but even with my #JanuaryPagesChallenge I don't think that will happen but I will continue and finish at some point (I really like this book!).

So I am picking my January book for #ReadingBracket2023 - I read a few really good books but the tagged is just fun!

Make a great day everyone -❄️

Loved this book - love the series - love the characters (old and new) -

Earned a #BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks thanks for hosting.

Make a great day everyone ❄

I love this series! I agree it just gets better and better, and I love the characters. I had a blast spending more time with the gang, they made me smile, they made me chuckle. There are more tender moments in this 3rd instalment which I like. I cannot wait for the next book, and the movie adaptation.
#serieslove2023

How does this series just keep getting better? There were multiple twists I did not see coming alongside the ever present dry humor. Joyce remains my favorite thirsty septuagenarian. Somehow this one had just as much, if not more, tender moments that just made you want to give everyone a hug.

#sharreadathon

I adore this series just as much as everyone else! So far I just love these characters more and more the more time I spend with them, so I have high hopes for book 4 which is being released in September. #Pantone2023 #ClassicGreen #JoyousJanuary @Clwojick @Andrew65

On my way to a #BookSpinBingo this month - thanks to @TheAromaofBooks for hosting!

Make a great day everyone -😊

I thought the first in the series was pretty good, same with second. I loved this one!! Can‘t wait for another one.
