classic mysteries to read on a stormy night
we have crime! we have thunderstorms! we have quicksand! we have romance sub plots! we have old timey investigators! we have some sexism and racism that definitely needs to be addressed by modern audiences…

Great list of classic crime, i need to read more victorian era crime
Thanks, I really enjoyed these and seeing how the mystery genre developed over time! Plus, most of them are public domain so they are easier to access!
There’s a podcast Phoebe Reads a Mystery for example, where she reads a bunch of these—it was a COVID staple of mine haha
oh that sounds like a great podcast, i have got to give it a go. i also love looking how the mystery genre developd over time and love a public domain story
