I had tried reading this a few years ago and couldn't read past the first murder. However, I recently picked it up again and really enjoyed reading it! I guess the first time was just not the right time for me.
I loved the four main characters - they were diverse in backgrounds and personalities, all got along well, and worked well together to solve the murder(s). The supporting characters were well developed and some were quite likeable, too.
The story line of four octogenarians living in an independent living facility creating their "Thursday Murder Club" is entertaining and made for a great story. Since they each had different backgrounds, they pooled their skills, divided the workload, and enlisted (or was it manipulated?) the help of two local police investigators.
