"This beautiful, brave woman scared of dying, and this silly, cowardly man afraid of living." 
 
I thought it would be near impossible to top my love for my friends with the Thursday Murder Club, but I've found a new crew in We Solve Murders to keep me company until I can return to Coopers Chase. 
 
The dynamic between Amy and Steve was so fun, and I wish I had a FIL to travel around the world solving mysteries with. But that would probably also mean I need a Rosie D'Antonio to fund those travels. 
 
This book has it all: international travel, murder, mystery, wit, and a whole lot of heart. I'm always surprised when Osman can bring me to tears in a cozy mystery, but it always happens, making my heart grow 10 times bigger. 
 
Now, before you say anything, I know a whole of characters are nestled within the 400 pages of this book, but what I have learned from Osman's books is that the best way to keep track of everyone is with a piece of paper and a pencil. I wrote down all the characters' names to keep them straight (message me for a non-spoiler cheat sheet). The best part is that many of those characters will appear again in future novels. I also wouldn't be surprised if, somewhere down the line, there was a bit of a TMC X WSM crossover πŸ‘€

I honestly cannot wait to see where We Solve Murders goes next! Also, don't forget to read the author's note at the end of this book for a fun announcement for Thursday Murder Club fans.
