Finding The Latest Crime Novels

By Deanne Shepard


Readers are often addicted to one particular genre or another. Those addicted to the genre of crime are always looking out for the latest crime novels. With the ability to search online, readers today have more opportunities than ever before to access all the newest releases and stay up-to-date with any recent news about authors and their books.

It is not difficult to search for the latest releases of an author. Booksellers have sections devoted to this genre and authors are usually listed. Clicking on the author brings up their books and the most recent one can be selected. Some sites have a section listing upcoming releases and offer the option of placing an order before the book is even released.

The favorite author of a reader may not have written a new book for some time. In this case, he or she might be directed to books written by other authors who write the same type of stories. If one enjoys Scandinavian thrillers, for example, other authors writing this type of book will be suggested.

You may enjoy many different types of books in this genre but are not quite sure what to select due to the huge choice available. In this case, it might help to narrow down the choice. There are always lists of top sellers, winners of awards and featured books that may be helpful. Reading extracts of books on such lists can also be a great way to find a suitable choice.

Another way to narrow down choice is to look at featured books. These are often picked and reviewed by in-house editors who usually have some experience in the industry. Reviews of books are also written by fellow fans and when someone is particularly excited about a specific book, their advice may be worth following.

Another benefit of such sites is the articles. These may cover many different aspects of the genre, giving deeper insight into authors, protagonists in their books and the minds of the criminals they write about. They may even feature interviews with authors finding out all about what inspires them to write and more may be discovered about upcoming releases.

The newest books are not only available in hard and soft cover but can usually be purchased in many other formats as well. They can be downloaded in various forms and read on various devices such as Kindles. There are even audio books available too.

There is no excuse today for readers not to find exactly what they are looking for. They have the option of going online and being exposed to an enormous array of books. The biggest problem they have is to make a choice. Even this is not difficult with access to best seller lists, pick of the month, featured books and even lists of prize winning books. There are books available for every budget too with many discounts and special offers available as well.
