The fact that the cover doesn’t have a cross-stitch design is SUCH a missed opportunity

I legit want a campy TV adaptation of this. Romanticizing white male serial killers: broke. Romanticizing little old lady serial killers: woke. (Joking, joking.) But seriously, it would be such a great campy dark comedy series.

if you liked this collection and have never seen the play/movie arsenic and old lace, i highly recommend it. the ladies in a&ol are way less intentional than maude, but equally gruesome and comic!

I listened to an elderly lady is up to no good while driving to and from my grandparents house for christmas. It was almost the perfect length for the drive. I just put in a hold request for this one at the library; it should be available soon

Three thoughts. One: Holy heck that son is an idiot if he has a fatal allergy and just decided to eat cookies that he didn't know the ingredients of. Two: Maude is the perfect name for a seemingly unassuming old lady. Three: I couldn't help but mentally insert a laugh track every time you said, "Oh, Maude!" ☠

1:40 Granny was a lot of things, sweet old woman was not one of them 😂 Though she did use the stereotype to her advantage to smuggle a plant cutting out of Australia. Granny may be gone, but that plant is thriving in her garden

This kinda reminds me of the Thursday Murder Club books by Richard Osman, but opposite. They’re about a bunch of elderly people, including an ex CIA agent, who work together to solve unsolved crimes. They’re very easy to read and very fun. They’re SUPER popular in the UK but idk about America, I would definitely recommend them.

I feel like I'm recommending this to everyone, but that's okay, I just finished You'd Look Better as a Ghost by Joanna Wallace, and it definitely has similar vibes. I wouldn't say it's LOL funny all the time, more ironically funny, but I think it was a good time.

After watching this review, I actually signed up for a library card in the next town over because they had these books. I'm part way through the first book and, while serial killers is definitely not my thing, this is great. Thank you so much for this video and I'm sorry that the reviews where you like the book seem to get buried by the algorithm. I have you to thank for both The Perfect Crimes of Marian Hayes and Divine Rivals as well. I loved them both so much.

I loved "An Elderly Lady is Up to No Good," but I hated the sequel. There was something uncomfortable about the way the author wrote some of Maud's thoughts about other people, like Maud was just a mask for how the author judges people. I also thought the pacing was awful, and the end was lackluster for me.
