I’ve never been a huge reader but I’d like to get into it instead of doomscrolling my phone. Can someone suggest me some books related to crime, mystery, thriller, horror etc? Can be fiction or non fiction! For example, I love reading r/let’s not meet, etc and reading up on true crime stories and podcasts!
I promise I’m normal 🤣
