Clever and fun, I laughed out loud a lot. This murder mystery kept me guessing almost right to the end. The found family of writers and writer wannabes is absolutely delightful.
It kind of gives me the same cozy but not really "cozy murder" vibes as Only Murders in the Building. The fact that I have not yet read the first two books in the series did not at all hamper my enjoyment of this story. I will definitely be checking out the other stories in the series
Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for this ARC

I might have enjoyed this more if I'd read the earlier two books in the Amy series. 🤷‍♀️

Dexter meets The Thursday Murder Club is how I would describe this novel. “Amy Among the Serial Killers” by Jincy Willet is a murder mystery where a group of writers comes together to solve the mystery. I thought with "serial killers" in the title it was going to be more of a fast past, mystery but it ended up being dark humor, read for entertainment type novel.
None of the chapters had names which when parts from the story are written by different characters, made it hard to follow via audiobook. Would have been nice to have a key or image to start the book about the locations of the murders or a friend/connection tree.
I received a download of this audiobook from Netgalley and St. Martin’s Press in exchange for an honest review.
