I don‘t remember the pal on Litsy who recommended this fun, easy read but it made me a Steve Cavanagh fan immediately 📖

I need some recommendations! I'm in a slump, I feel like I've read every book that fits my taste although I know that's not possible. Basically, I have read every new release thriller that is not a crime thriller or police procedural (I hate detective novels that extend into huge series). I'm not only a fan of thrillers but my taste is in domestic or psychological in that genre. I would love to get suggestions for Literary Fiction as well. Help!!
We all know I love a good challenge, so why not add one more to my plate in 2023?!
Please give me those recommendations!! (Either tag them or comment them below. And I am willing to go a couple rounds, so the more recommendations the better!)
I love thrillers, historical fiction, mysteries, romances, dark romances, and YA.
💙💙💙

Help friends! I‘m really feeling like some cute autumnal romance atm but all the recommendations I‘m finding irl and online are for summer romances. I need baking and big sweaters and crunchy leaves. Does anyone have any recs from last year or know of any new autumn romances that just came out? I have no preferences in terms of genders, sexualities or levels of spiciness, I just need cuddly jumpers.
Good morning littens! I was wondering if any of you use a Kindle Oasis and what your experience is with it. I have an almost 6 year old Paperwhite (7th gen) that is starting to get glitchy and I was thinking it might be time for an upgrade.
So when you have hundreds of miles to go in weather like this, which audiobook do you recommend listening to? I‘m home safe & sound, asking for the next adventurous drive, lol. ❄️
(grumble) I‘ve been obsessively checking my myTBR account for my next set of recommendations. I already have The Map of Salt and Stars on my shelf and planned to read it next year for #ReadingAsia2021 (Syria). The other two look really good, but here‘s my grumble. I have another new bibliologist - no warning, no explanation, and I‘m left worrying that I did something or said something that made my last (3) bibliogist dump me. 😭😭 *sigh*
Okay #TeamSlaughter! I have a question for you. Can anyone recommend a horror or thriller/suspense of any age group that has a setting at a circus or has creepy clowns? I have a few prompts I‘d like to cross off, but I‘m not having any luck finding anything on CloudLibrary.
The only ones I know about are It, and Clown in a Cornfield, but my library doesn‘t have them available. Thanks!
Hello again Littens. Here is a site where you can get some help for where to start with some authors you might want to try out. Hope this helps getting you back into reading if you are in a slump.

Hey #TeamSlaughter the countdown is on and we‘ve got 8 more days until the start of #Scarathlon2020! WOOT WOOT! 🥳 PARTY TOWN!
Just in case anyone is looking for some TBR inspiration, I thought I‘d make a post asking you guys to share some of your favourite mystery/thriller/suspense/true crime books with the rest of the team. Share your recommendations down below 😊
* Final Bow For Yellowface by Phil Chan to work colleagues, and Such a Fun Age by Kiley Reid to anyone looking for a sharp, engaging read. I also haven't stopped recommending Red, White, & Royal Blue to anyone and everyone for over a year now; maybe I have a problem?
* Yes! I love getting recommendations, both for new reading material and for a glimpse, however small, into the sorts of things that people in my life connect to and are moved by.
I haven't read anything in this category before but I'm keen to do so, so will be checking the tag for recommendations as usual!
#integrateyourshelf @ChasingOm @Emilymdxn
I need help. Thanks ♥️♥️♥️
I need some recs for the #readwithmrbook challenge!! What are your recs librarian/book seller friends?!
I'm feeling depress, lately. The last few months have been thought and challenging. Is there any books you would recommend to heal the soul? Or help with depression/anxiety?
Littens, I need your help! I‘ve been in an audio drought for too long, and I need some recommendations. I‘m looking for a deep dive into all kinds of things. The books above are some I‘ve enjoyed a lot, and anything resembling those would be great, but I‘m open!
Also, if there exists a book that is as 🍌👖 as Tiger King on Netflix, pleeeeease let me know 😂
I know @Cinfhen is hitting the audios hard at the moment, so maybe you have some ideas?
Year 2, Quarter 2 Book Riot Tailored Book Recommendations are here. I‘m pretty excited about the first two in particular, but I‘m also trying not to take personally the fact that my bibliologist has apparently changed w/o notice or explanation. Did I inadvertently insult the first one? Was I just so picky that they gave up on me? *sigh*
Hello Littens! I need some recommendations for my next audible ... I need something entertaining my really easy to listen to, I‘ve just finished Gulliver‘s travels which I found really hard to focus on, plus work is pretty full-on at the moment so my head feels like it‘s full of cotton wool ... thank you kindly!
Help! My cousin just got her first Kindle and she's excited to buddy read. I need recommendations because she's not a big reader and doesn't want to commit to a long novel due to time constraints. She's got a great sense of humor, so I was thinking maybe a funny short story collection? FYI, my cousin is 43. Please let me know if you know of anything I could read with her.

Can anyone recommend me an uplifting fiction book? For a Christmas Eve gift, for someone that has had a bit of a hard year.
I still need to complete these prompts for #booked2019:
-Female detective
-Indigenous author
-Muslim author or main character
-Comic or graphic novel
I have some ideas for them, but I haven‘t been able to find one for female detective that‘s not part of a series. I‘d prefer not to start another series right now. So if anyone has any suggestions for any of these, especially a non-series book for female detective, it would be greatly appreciated!
Looking for a recommendation. Spooky, mystery, thriller, romance as secondary theme, historical better than modern but either will do. Go...
A friend of mine is trying to find some books and I was hoping you guys could help because I‘m drawing a blank at the moment. 😅
So he‘s trying to find:
-A book about a man stranded on an island with a lighthouse, fighting his demons
-Or, if that‘s too specific, just a book involving a lighthouse.
He doesn‘t want any horror or anything overly sentimental.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Hey all I need some help!!! Today during library one of my fourth grade girls asked me to help her find a science romance book. I looked for titles in our library that jumped out, but no luck. I turned to google, but a lot of the books that came up weren‘t science romance. Here‘s where you come in can anyone recommend any books that are science romance but also appropriate for a fourth grader to read? Thanks in advance!!
❌CALLING ALL LITTENS❌
✨Sooo, I‘ve been gone from the book world for a minute (9-10 months 😂) so I need to know all the latest crazes. Recommend me some new (ish) books! Anything YA, thriller, mystery, sci-fi fantasy, etc. I‘ll read anything, but romance! I‘ve heard Gideon something or other is really good?? SOS. Helppppp. 💜📚
Thank you for the recommendations everyone you're all fab!
I'm sure I'll let you know what I think when I get round to reading them 😂

3/3. Finally the religion section. I wanted to get major religions in, from the Eastern faiths to atheism, which rejects religion but is involved in theological debates. If he makes it through all of 1-3‘s readings, he gets some kind of merit badge or a big box of cookies or something. 😂👏🏻
#LitsyLovesLibraries
2/3. All of these subjects he‘s asking about are quite broad, to say the least, lol. So, I‘ve recommended to him general surveys and some of the most pivotal material in philosophy. As for history, well, that‘s huge 😆! Broad surveys it is, so he gets the entire world‘s history through ~1500, and then bits and pieces thereafter, with a focus on his own country of America, touching on many world events 1700s-2010.
#LitsyLovesLibraries
1/3. Okay, so here‘s my latest Readers Advisory response. Patron is entering the university in town. Wants a basic general introduction to political theory, philosophy, history, and religion. Which books should he start with? (I also offered podcasts for him too as a bonus.) Some books we have, some we don‘t. These books assert a smattering of major political philosophies across the spectrum, from dictatorship to anarchism.
#LitsyLovesLibraries
I‘m going to Delft in The Netherlands in the not so distant future, so off course I have to ask my Litsy family for bookstore recommendations. Preferably in the city center and with a great selection of books in English.
Any other recommendations are also welcome.
Hey guys! Who‘s got some favourite #BannedBooks to recommend for this weeks #MayMadness theme!?
We‘ve got the #24B4Monday Banned Books edition coming up this weekend, so I‘m sure everyone would love to hear your favourites!
Mine are as follows:
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime
Charlottes Web
Of Mice and Men
George
Hey everyone! I have a favor to ask of you! I have recently become obsessed with two Lifetime movies where detectives play a huge role. It could be the actor that appears in both that has caused this... but back to my favor. I would love any recommendations for detective romance books. I have read a few & love when a detective is protecting someone & of course they fall for each other. But I am open to suggestions. Thanks in advance everyone!
So, I just finished The Sisters of the Winter Wood and am currently reading the third Grisha book. I'm in the mood for more Slavic or Russian folktales. I've read, and loved, Uprooted. Any other suggestions?
Lucy Mangan writing in Stylist with her 2019 recommendations. Some more for the TBR!
I‘ll be hosting my book club‘s January meeting in just under 2 weeks. I‘ve reserved a few books (fiction), but I like to include a few nonfiction books for the group vote. I‘d appreciate any recommendations!
Hi friends!! I would like some cozy fall/winter/seasonal/holiday reads (think Hallmark/Lifetime movie the read- or just your favorite seasonal read!) for the next couple of months, and I couldn‘t think of anyone better to come to for some recs! I want to love the towns & characters & get warm fuzzies. I‘m making a list! Goooo!! (and thanks!)
#riotgrams October 10, Mental Health Books
I actually don‘t own any! 😐 I have heard good things about Bene Brown and I‘m waiting for (Don‘t) Call Me Crazy to drop, but I don‘t have any mental books myself to take pictures of. What would you recommend?
#recommendsday #bookrecommendation #mentalhealth
Please recommend a book you think I should read, or your favorite book. I will be making a book jar for when I need something to read.
I am 100% not ready for summer to end. I love fall, but it is going to have to pry my sandals and beach hair from my cold, cold fingers. I need something to look forward to. Any fun fall/Halloween swaps happening? I looked on Happenings, but didn't see many current. I know Littens love fall!
I need some recommendations. I have 3 audible credits but no idea what to get. This is a small sample of my library. I prefer fiction and the occasional memoir (especially travel ones). I like full cast audios (His Dark Materials series is my absolute fav).
Any suggestions? 🎧
This guy was sitting on the window ledge outside my office window. He‘s looking to expand his reading and would like you to recommend your favorite memoirs.
Hi friendos. I'm looking for book recs on the subject of decolonization. Does anyone know of any titles or websites I could check out? Kind of having a major revelation about how I want to proceed with my activism and decolonization is the major focus. Any recs you guys have will be wildly appreciated. I'm not really sure where to even start. Big thanks 💞
Litsy universe. I want to get my daughter‘s PE teacher an end of year gift and I like to gift books. What would you recommend? I have no idea what he likes (or if he likes to read). He is awesome, makes PE fun and all the kids love him.
Anyone else doing the #popsugarreadingchallenge ? I need a "book recommended by someone else doing the challenge" and would love some ideas from you Littens! #pop18
Thanks in advance lovely #Littens 😊😊
