murder, mystery, & suspense (best spOoky book recs!)
⭐ Hey there! Here's Episode 10 (woohoo!), where I talk about all my favorite books in the suspense/mystery category! One of my favorite genres ever is murder mystery/thriller set in the late 1800s/early 1900s with a strong female protagonist. Oddly specific, but maybe I'll do an episode later on these books, because trust me, there are a ton that fit in the category and it's one of my latest obsessions (along with Goodreads)! But in this episode, I'll read a summary of each novel to give you a brief overview of the plot, then move on to my own little commentary. Below you'll find a list of all the books and authors. :) Hopefully, you find one (or ten?!) you like and check them out!
*Recorded in January of 2022, so some facts/details may be a little off! :)*
*Just a note that some of the books may contain more mature topics/themes, so it would be best to read at your own discretion.*
