i'm on an absolute murder mystery KICK at the moment. having watched the new knives out twice already (mild spoilers ahead) i've been thinking about the subgenre of locked room murder mysteries and decided to compile a list of them!

definition: a locked room mystery involves a seemingly "impossible crime". in these, the murder is committed under circumstances where it appears impossible for the killer to enter and leave the room undetected. and yet it IS possible!

I fell in love with lesbian monster trope so here’s a list of books I’ve read or plan to read with it 🫡

There’s a lot of sapphic romance out there, so here’s a good place to start

Fiction Books Set in El Salvador

Fiction Books Set in Dominica

This is a list of non-fiction books that are meant to educate readers on the various issues faced by the indigenous peoples of Turtle Island - but focusing on the land called Canada. Feel free to give recommendations. The list will focus on learning how the Canadian government systematically committed genocide, case studies on various topics, and decolonization. There will also be a list of academic articles to read related to these topics in the comments section.

This are the crime books I really love!!
