This was a lot of fun, I loved how aware of itself it was while still keeping certain aspects close to the chest. I really enjoyed it!

It’s ironic because the title makes you think the same way the culprit does, that the whole family is killers, until we learn it’s all very incidental.

A Family Reunion Like No Other

Ernie Cunningham writes books about how to write crime novels. When he gets an email from his aunt saying he must attend a family reunion at a remote sky resort, he is somewhat nervous because, as the tite suggests, everyone in the Cunninghams are no ordinary family. 

Soon after arrival, the resort is cut off to vehicles in a heavy snow storm. Ernie 's worst fears begin materialise when a body is found ìn the snow the day after and skills of his day job are called in to action. 

This isn't Cosy Crime by any means, it is very dark and twisted, but I enjoyed it and will probably read the next one in the series.

 I know everyone comps mystery books to Knives Out, but truly Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone is the closest thing to it.I might even say it’s a better experience than Knives Out. Even though it’s a  labeled as a pure mystery, there were some thriller-esque aspects to it that kind of made it more of a genre blend to me. All in all, an interesting and compelling time! I’d call this a popcorn read if there ever was. I read this physically and via audio w/Hoopla.  Now to read the second book!
