What are your deep cut books that you don't think get enough love? Looking for hidden gems in the #literary, #mystery, #noir, and #crimefiction genres specifically.

Puddle People by Eamonn Bradley is weird, unsettling, and darkly humorous.

Hats off to Lisa Regan for being able to make the Josie Quinn novels explore extremely dark subjects but still giving a cozy vibe.
Let me know if you have any recommendations for a similar series!

#TBRTuesday I have a few dystopia novels in my backlog, but I can't bring myself to read them right now. I used to love that sub-genre and now I think it would just piss me off. Anyone else feeling this? #readers

Check out Puddle People by Eamonn Bradley! A Scifi body horror about a genius inventor trying to change the world, Puddle People takes a fun dive into serious questions like, what is the value of a human vs humanity?

This is a great way of describing one of my favorite character arc #tropes. Love when a protagonist (or antagonist) goes against his morals for a loved one or greater good. #readers #crimefiction #noir #quote #quotes

If you're suspicious there is a cabal of wealthy people manipulating the world with the help of supernatural powers, The House Rules by Calvin Naraghi is for you. If you're not, then there's still a cool mad scientist, body horror subplot.

Nah, he's in Philadelphia, all he sees is the back of the next set of row houses. He likes to listen to the city.

I appreciate everyone who has taken the time to read, review, and spread the word about Menagerie. Your support has kept me motivated and energized as I work on what will hopefully be my first novel.

As a veteran, any military leader doing this can fuck off. I hope when all of this is over MAGA gets recognized as a terrorist organization and previous activity in it disbars you from future government or military service.

This evening I'll be making edits based off my critique group's feedback. It's so great getting more eyes on my manuscript! If you've used a critique group, do you have any success stories or things you learned that you're still thankful for? #writers #writersq

A fantastic debut novel by Calvin Naraghi, The House Rules is a crazy cross between The Hunger Games and Society. Pick it up if you like your books with terror, betrayal, body horror, and heart.

Don Winslow is a phenomenal crime fiction writer with a massive backlog. Unfortunately, he was forced to cancel his in person book tour due to threats over his political activism.
