Killers of a Certain Age | Deanna Raybourn

If you want a fun, fast read and are over a “certain age”, read this one! I‘m determined to keep with these ladies….

TiredLibrarian We just discussed this in my book club and it was a unanimous thumbs up! A lot of fun and some serious messages about ageism. 18h

I‘m late to the party, but HOLY HELL this was a fun ride! And not just because I‘m a reader of a certain age.

Finished this and immediately put my name on the library waitlist for book 2, which comes out in March.

DogMomIrene Didn‘t know there was a sequel! Investigating now😊🕵🏻 3w
DogMomIrene @Amiable Oh I see! Sadly, it‘s not listed in Libby for either Vancouver Island or PEI. And when I search for it in PEI‘s system, it brings up a book about birds 😂 Checked an author search too. Not pre-ordered yet😮‍💨 Will keep checking though! 🤞🏼🙌🏼 3w
Suet624 I‘ve got this stacked already but your review would have done it. Sounds great. 2w

So, I was a little insulted when handed this with the words, “Mom, this book is so you! It‘s about old lady assassins. You‘ll love it.” I don‘t feel a certain age. But it is really good, and I did love it. “Because she doesn't apologize for anything. She had a rotten start in life, but she's made the best of it. She lives on her own terms. She knows who she is and what she wants, and she does what she is good at. And she has a good time doing it."

TheKidUpstairs This book was so much fun. I hope they adapt it, it would make a great movie! There is a sequel coming out in 2025 :) 1mo

"We all have our turn in the end," I said....

She took a deep breath. "Well, I suppose if we die tonight, I'm okay with it. I've had a good life, you know. I was married to Kenneth for over thirty years. Eighteen of them were really happy. That's not so bad."

"What happened to the other twelve?"

"Erectile dysfunction and his abortive attempt to breed Weimaraners."

I enjoyed this one a lot! The first half started a little slow for me, but once I got to the second half, I finished it in a day! It‘s about four retired women who had a long career as assassins — and now someone is trying to assassinate them. Very entertaining!

This isn't my genre of choice, but I thought it would be more character driven than plot driven given the unusual age of the woman. Definitely a case of it's the reader, not the book.

76/62

TheAromaofBooks I enjoyed this one, but felt like the characters were all kind of the same. 3mo
TheBookgeekFrau @TheAromaofBooks Yes! The last chapters had a few pops of personality, but that was it. 3mo
