Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone (by Benjamin Stevenson)

A great, metafictional, tongue-in-cheek murder mystery in the style of Anthony Horowitz.  And what a title!

This is one where the solution is actually quite guessable, but in spite of that, it's such a fun ride.  Unfortunate about all the murder but Stevenson's style makes it fun anyway. The characters are great, there are lots of twists beyond the solution that made it a page-turner, and I'm thrilled to see there's another book with this same main character coming out next year! I've already reserved it.

I do have the new Richard Oseman in the queue too, and maybe another Japanese mystery or two, so I'm not quite done with murder yet.
