Recs if you like The Man Who Was Thursday: A Nightmare...

📍title inspired by @erintripsey's lists Audiobooks narrated by Brighton, England's Simon Vance! I'm a fan of his narration of Bram Stoker's Dracula and wanted to compile a list of more books narrated by him. He has a smooth English accent, lighter tone for feminine characters, and distinct variations with other UK/European accents.

Fun Fact: He's been an audiobook narrator since age 6, when he did a reading of Winnie the Pooh by A. A. Milne!

From the game. Because I can't be the only one using it as an excuse to add to my tbr

Novels with intriguing titles (that I read or that sound interesting) in English (either originally or translated); a mix of genres. Mostly 4+ words in the title, with some select 3-word-titles but no shorter ones. No parts of series except for the first book.

Books that often get overlooked next to big author names or better known works by those authors.

Included in this list are titles that contain Bible references, themes of redemption, and the struggle between good and evil.

Not included: Christian romance 🚫🚫🚫

All buddy reads taking place in the Organized Book Club discord starting and/or ending in 2025. The list will be updated throughout the year.

Called "the definitive library of mystery fiction". Howard Haycraft originally published the list in 1941 in Murder for Pleasure. It was updated and broadened by Ellery Queen. This is the final revision, including books from 1748 to 1952.

These books are historically significant because of their influence on the development of crime fiction, however books from these times often contain bigoted and otherwise offensive content.

I haven't read them all, or even a high percentage. I'm trying to keep track of how many on this list I read.

I could only find a Spanish language version of A Case to Answer by Edgar Lustgarten.

Books that kinda scratch the Pynchon itch. Pls suggest more
