Really enjoyed this book, it follows nicely on from the first book but can be read as a standalone. Looking forward to starting the third in the series.

Another book club pick I enjoyed lol

I loved this book better than the first one. Especially once we got towards the end as everything came to a head and there were a lot of twists and turns. Can’t wait to read the next two books :)

 I didn't like this one quite as much as the first book, but its a close thing. I just love these characters so much and Osman does an excellent job balancing humor and sorrow.

The characters felt well fleshed out. There were a lot of them, but the author handled it well. I actually enjoyed this better than the first book.

About the Finnish translation & audiobook: Mun mielestä käännös oli hyvin onnistunut, ei ainakaan kuulostanut tönköltä. Toimi hyvin äänikirjana. Lukijalla oli kyllä aika unettava ääni :D

Just as enjoyable as the first one. Sure, there are a few plot holes but the characters are incredibly charming, the stakes always feel real, and it's written well. Another perfect cosy mystery.
