A Most Unusual Demise by Katherine Black

dark funny mysterious reflective tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

I thoroughly enjoyed this story and cannot wait for a sequel! It definitely had a unique premise with the protagonist being an elderly serial killer who volunteers at church and runs a bookshop, but I loved reading the book through her eyes and getting an anti-hero's perspective on everything! The characters were all interesting and well-developed and the murder mystery plot was expertly woven into the personal subplots of each character. 10/10 would recommend!
