Of course I have certain authors or books that I like over others, but I do believe my #FavoriteFiction is mystery and crime fiction. I‘m a sucker for a good mystery! 😀

This little book is a godsend to any crime fiction fan looking for new authors and series to try. Recommendations are organised by sub-genre, type of criminal or detective. My only real criticism is that cosy mysteries are missing.
