A quick and easy read about an old woman who does whatever she has to in order to maintain her comfortable life and cope with her difficult past. If you're looking for something charming and a little dark it's a good read, no big twists or turns but enjoyable for its simplicity and quirkyness.

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 small book with short, funny, entertaining stories about a octagenarian serial killer who just wants people to stay off her turf. This old lady was definitely up to no good but I was, oddly, rooting for he the entire time. I'll definitely recommend it to patrons looking for a quick read.
