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.

This book jumps perspectives A LOT and there are over 100 chapters which makes it a very staccato read and hard to just get lost in. There are a lot of surprising twists and turns that keep you guessing though! Every time I thought I picked out the murderer, a new twist was revealed!
Not only a murder mystery book, but also a poignant tale about approaching the end of one’s life.
