Dee asked this question about The Thursday Murder Club:
I have not read this book yet, but the synopsis sounds very, very similar to James Pattersons "Womens Murder Club" series or "The Sisterhood" series by Fern Michaels. Both are phenomenal series' and i would recommend them both if you like books about serving justice to the criminal mind. But is this book "The Thursday Murder Club" worth the read?

It’s as if I live in a parallel universe seeing all the 5* reviews on various sites and the author’s gushing thanks to all the people that helped him. I lost track of all the characters and different strands of the story. And I had to consult the spoiler answers on here to make sense of it. I won’t be reading any future novels by him that’s for sure, which is a shame because the main characters are engaging and it’s a good concept for a series. I have a pretty good sense of humour and didn’t even giggle once, yet I read reviews about funny it is.(less)
