Purchasing The Latest Crime Novels

By Deanne Shepard


Books with mystery and suspense are enjoyed by many readers. Today finding such books is easy and a simple internet search reveals all the latest crime novels. In this way, readers can see exactly what has been written most recently by the favorite authors. While browsing, they often come across other books that appeal to them as well.

It is not difficult to search for the latest releases of an author. Booksellers have sections devoted to this genre and authors are usually listed. Clicking on the author brings up their books and the most recent one can be selected. Some sites have a section listing upcoming releases and offer the option of placing an order before the book is even released.

The favorite author of a reader may not have written a new book for some time. In this case, he or she might be directed to books written by other authors who write the same type of stories. If one enjoys Scandinavian thrillers, for example, other authors writing this type of book will be suggested.

If a reader is wanting to broaden their horizons within the genre and find new authors, they may not know how to go about this. However, here are many options available to help them them if this is the case. Picks of the month and top seller lists reveal what other people are enjoying. Extracts can be read which is very helpful as readers can usually judge quite quickly whether something will interest them or not.

Featured books are often hand-picked and reviewed by in-house editors. These editors often have experience and expertise. However, reviews by other other customers can be helpful when it comes to trying out new authors. The excitement of another reader about a specific book may just the encouragement needed to try reading something new. Some of these websites devoted to the genre are more community based and allow participants to discuss the books they have read.

Another benefit of such sites is the articles. These may cover many different aspects of the genre, giving deeper insight into authors, protagonists in their books and the minds of the criminals they write about. They may even feature interviews with authors finding out all about what inspires them to write and more may be discovered about upcoming releases.

The prices of books depend upon the format. Hard covered books are the most expensive, followed by paperbacks. Today it is also possible to download e-books for reading on e-readers like the Kindle. These versions are much more affordable.

There is no excuse today for readers not to find exactly what they are looking for. They have the option of going online and being exposed to an enormous array of books. The biggest problem they have is to make a choice. Even this is not difficult with access to best seller lists, pick of the month, featured books and even lists of prize winning books. There are books available for every budget too with many discounts and special offers available as well.
