2026 Book Review: Every Time I Go on Vacation, Someone Dies

by Catherine Mack

A Mystery/Thriller, 2024 by Minotaur Books, 342 Pages 

What I Didn’t Like:

  • The footnotes hinting at things to come got a bit annoying. As a whole, I didn’t mind the footnotes, but I was reading a physical book. On a Kindle they’d be a different story.
  • I always think pop culture name dropping in a story is odd. It dates the story and it comes off as “you cool kids like these things” which I know is silly. Anyway, personal ick, but this one has that. 
  • I figured most of it out really early. I hoped I was wrong and then I wasn’t. 

What I Did Like:

  • Funny! As I hoped from the title, this one makes you laugh. I loved the sense of humor. 
  • The characters have good banter. I liked how different they all came across even though most of them are in the same profession. It gives it a little more personality.
  • The old school Clue movie vibes were fun! 

Who Should Read This One:

  • Mystery fans who like a cozy type mystery with humor that feels lighthearted even when there’s deaths.

My Rating: 3 Stars
