Pandemic Reading List 2021 – The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman – Popular on Social Media

Available at the library

I was quite excited when I found out that Richard Osman had written a book. I like his TV programme House of Games and I like him as a co-host on Pointless, so I was interested to see what sort of book he would write. I was slightly concerned that it might be a bit high brow for me, but I need not have worried.

There were a mix of reviews around, but I decided to ignore them and approach the book with an open mind. 

I was not disappointed. There were lots of twists and turns that were cleverly written and kept me guessing until the end. I have read a lot of murder mysteries, but this one was unique in its setting and it really held my interest. 

I loved all the characters with their individual background stories lightly touched upon and the setting of a residential home. It was a lovely little community (despite the sometimes concerning back stories) and made me want that for my future! I can’t wait to read the next book and pre ordered it pretty much straight after reading this one!

Rated 5/5
