Though not a quick exodus, because you know that getting out of a garden chair at our age is a military operation. the humour in this book is good fun

i know they’re necessary for the plot as police officers but chris and donna really bore me compared to the core 4

This started off fine, vibes very much like the first book but no dramas there, if it ain't broke don't fix it. But now I feel nothing? They mystery is nowhere near as interesting as in The Thursday Murder Club and I feel like the charm is dwindling with every chapter... Pausing this for the moment to see if I reach for it within the next few days. If not then I'm DNFing.

super excited to see how the apple tv series turns out.. they better do it justice.

are not the two cops around the same age?? Why is no one talking about how weird it is that he is dating her mother?

And you’d think, given that she works in IT, she could have googled “Botox.” She must be fifty, Ian thinks, same age as him. […] Ian is on a lot of dating apps, and sets a strict upper age limit of twenty-five. throw the whole man AWAYYY
