This was so much fun!
I loved this set of characters. Sweet little ol' people back to their old ways and honestly Joyce is quite adorable whereas Elizabeth is mysterious and a delight. I do like the ruff on Ron, he sounds like a cinnamon roll that could kill where as Ib, a bit mysterious as well but he didn't get a lot of screen time compared to the others but so far I do like this group.

Thursday Murder Club | Richard Osman

I fondly recalled the Hipsters (they've all had hip replacements) from “Community“ reading this. Osman's gang is considerably more subtle & refined but equally willing to make use of stereotypes about being old & befuddled when it suits their purposes. And they're also heartbreakingly vulnerable to the issues of old age.

Didn't love the fat-shaming & copaganda, and was iffy on the moral ambiguity but the cast is so endearing I enjoyed it anyway.

lil1inblue The Community Hipsters cracked me up! This may be worth a read for me. 😂 1w

I know this has gotten mixed reviews but I liked it. At an exclusive island resort for A-list celebrities, a place where they can party and unwind without the eyes of the press or randos on them, bodies are found, but who among them has been killed? Pretty much all the characters are awful, and they all have secrets, which slowly unfold as it‘s learned who has met their end.

DNF for me. I just could not get into this one - didn‘t particularly enjoy the writing or the story itself. Just wasn‘t my cup of tea.
