Murder Movie Club: Murder on a Monday (Monthly Murder Movie Club Cozy Mystery)
Murder: best served with popcorn.
That’s the mantra for the members of the Monthly Murder Movie Club at The Northwoods Movie Theater. Every month, this eclectic group of northern Michigan residents gather to watch a murder mystery movie on the big screen. After stopping the projector in the middle of the movie, the members gather to discuss the crime and suspects, each making a whodunit pick before resuming the movie. The hair dresser with the scissors? The jilted lover with poison?
But nothing is normal on this Monday morning when the club members find the ticket-taking popcorn maker John E. Cash in the lobby of the theater, deader than any actor in their beloved movies. Using their unique talents and eccentricities, the Monthly Murder Movie Club members work collectively to solve the crime before the Northwoods Police force does. Members strive to protect the reputation of their beloved theater--and to protect their Monday meetings--because what each member is discovering is that there is so much more to their Monday club than a good old-fashioned murder mystery. Found family, new friends, and murder investigations! "A fantastic, cozy read! I particularly love the found family elements and storyline woven throughout this book. The mystery was fun, and the movie club themes were top-notch. So fun!" Goodreads Reviewer
"I loved it. It's the only cozy mystery I've ever read that truly required a lot of teamwork. Undoubtedly an adventure." Goodreads Reviewer

I loved this cozy mystery. As a Michigander having it based here makes it even more special.
There is quite the crew when it comes to the characters in the Murder Club. Each bringing something unique or rather quirky personalities to the group. It's hard not to love each of them. With their love of solving cases on film it's no surprise they have a talent for the real thing.
