Purchasing The Latest Crime Novels

By Deanne Shepard


If you enjoy reading crime and mystery stories, you will always be looking out for new offerings. The latest crime novels are available from many online sources. Searching for them online helps a great deal, especially when you want to compare prices and find any special deals or discounts. It is also possible to find out when new books are going to be released.

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.

You may be disappointed to discover that your favorite author has not written anything new. However, this may be a good opportunity to find some new authors. Some sites will even offer a list of other authors you might enjoy based on your selection of author. For example, if you enjoy reading forensic thrillers written by Kathy Reichs, you may enjoy the same type of books written by Patricia Cornwell.

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.

Featured books are often hand-picked and reviewed by in-house editors. These editors often have experience and expertise. However, reviews by other other customers can be helpful when it comes to trying out new authors. The excitement of another reader about a specific book may just the encouragement needed to try reading something new. Some of these websites devoted to the genre are more community based and allow participants to discuss the books they have read.

There are websites that are specifically devoted to the crime genre. Everything found on such a site is specifically dedicated to fans of the genre and can be very interesting. This may include an interview with an author to discuss a recent release or an article offering insight into the inspiration of an author. Books that have just been released or upcoming books to be released may also be discussed.

It is possible to purchase books in many different formats from these sites. They are usually available in both paperback and hard cover versions. It is also possible to download versions for reading on a device like a kindle. Prices of the different formats can vary considerably with the hard cover being the most expensive.

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.
