![]() ![]() In true Cosby fashion, the novel manages to touch on all manner of hot button topics. ![]() Cosby goes Southern Gothic with the backstory, focusing on the sins of society and how indifference and prejudice are the true culprits behind the most terrible acts. Cosby does Thomas Harris!! And proves that the serial killer novel is back with his cleverly plotted and socially relevant take on the hunt for a monstrous killer. The name of the game on the list below is variety, so we hope you’ll find plenty of new discoveries to fill the long summer days. You might be tempted to stick with your favorite authors this year-after all, they all have new books out-but you’d be missing out on some powerful new voices, especially from small presses. ![]() That is because there were too many good books and we got overwhelmed and then sleepy and then didn’t read as many of them as we would have liked to…But there are still 60+ thrilling, compelling, thoughtful, and intricate crime novels on the list below! (It really is a stressful year for us in terms of reading…Why are there so many good books?!?!) There are also quite a few YA and horror novels on the list, and you’ll spot some historical fiction as well. The list is also a bit shorter than usual.
