I am liking the genre of elderly lady killers 😆 I like how some of these kills were that they annoyed her, but also that the victim deserved it-

aka the lawyer 👏

I did not understand why

she decided to kill the antique dealer. Is it cause she knew he was gonna swindle her of her antiques?

A fun, and quick read. At times, it can be a bit confusing but the book is still enjoyable nonetheless.
