All fiction books that appear in the Tiny Bookshop catalogue! Would sort them by genre as I read along.

If you’re here, like me you might be tired of basically seeing the same plots and storylines over and over. This is a list of ones I’ve enjoyed that are all (mostly) different from each other*. Main thing in common might be the author.

*Can’t guarantee there aren’t similar types of twists/reveals lol.

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

the types of books that even though they’re not perfect, the mystery and twists keep you up all night because you have to know what happens next/in the end.

I can’t promise you a “good” book… but I can sure as hell vouch you’ll want to devour it in one sitting.

Thrillers & mysteries that will keep you guessing until the end

My most anticipated new releases for 2025. I will add as I discover them!!
