If you were to ask me what my favorite book genre to read is, "cozy mystery" wouldn't be at the top of the list. Nothing against it, I just have other genres I tend to be drawn to. And yet, the popularity of Richard Osman's Thursday Murder Club series caught my attention enough that I had to read the first book… and then the second, and so forth. While it does play a factor in what I'm about to talk about, my love of the books isn't the only reason I really enjoyed Netflix’s new book-to-screen adaptation of The Thursday Murder Club. And it’s not the only reason I hope that, following this satisfying addition to the 2025 movie schedule, Netflix continues to bring Osman's series to the screen with additional films.
First, and foremost, thank you, Netflix, for getting The Thursday Murder Club movie made. But now I need the sequels.
