Books that all take place in Oxford

Keeping up with the 700+ books featured on Overdue since 2013

It’s like academia vibes but not always but like just always in an Oxford setting because somehow my favorite books take place there. (idk if that makes sense lol)

Whodunnits published between WWI and the 1950s

All these books are taken from various courses I've taken as English Literature undergrad! Contains both well known classics and ones you probably have never heard of. (work in progress)

yeah it’s cliche but i do like a lot of these books. both books that fit the dark academia genre and books dark academics would read.

Books that were featured on an episode of Backlisted.

Mystery and crime novels and non-fiction that feature the genre trope of a poisoned pen... Careful when you open your post!
