Recs if you like Deep Water...

When homes, nurseries, kitchens, suburbs, etc. become the most dangerous places of all

i'm constantly on the hunt for more books about snails (that aren't kids books) and these are the ones I've found so far! mix of fiction and non-fiction (anything with a snail and i'm in!!) very open to suggestions even if the snail is just included and not the main theme.

I love thrillers! I also...hate thrillers. 😅 This list is borne of a personal quest to find more of the thrillers I enjoy, specifically ones published in the 20th century. No Gone Girl or Freida McFadden here, I'm afraid.

Under construction — recs enthusiastically welcomed

This is the list from The Atlantic. "In 1868, a little-known writer by the name of John William DeForest proposed a new type of literature, a collective artistic project for a nation just emerging from an existential conflict: a work of fiction that accomplished “the task of painting the American soul.” It would be called the Great American Novel, and no one had written it yet, DeForest admitted. Maybe soon."
