As a bigggg big fan of Richard Osman's Thursday Murder Club series, I was excited to pick up a new story by him and see what else he can do! "We Solve Murders" was super fun and fast-paced, with a cast of insanely lovable characters. An Osman speciality, it seems?
What kept me from rating this five stars was the plot... I honestly had trouble keeping things straight throughout the read, and I felt at the end we didn't really get a solid understanding of *why* the influencer murders had been necessary? But the ride was enjoyable enough that I can forgive this, and hope that the next installment comes with a more fleshed-out mystery. Because the ending of this book certainly feels like a recipe for success!
