I recently heard about abebooks, which is an online used bookstore. I havent yet gotten anything from them myself, but someone recommended it to me and it looks pretty good! Most of the books seem to be in pretty good condition too

Well, personally, I have no idea, since I don't live in the USA, but mayby you should try to join some goodreads giveaways, since they are open for your country, you never know, you might win some :)

I have A LOT of Mystery recs-

-The Inheritance Games: This is like the second BEST mystery book I read last year. (The best being AGGTM which you've already read) I'm sure you'll love this

-Sadie: Not exactly a normal mystery book but it was amazing

-The Murder of Roger Ackroyd: This is the best work of Agatha Chrisitie according to me. You have to read this!

-I Killed Zoe Spanos: This one is a physiological thriller

-There's Someone Inside Your House: Not a lot different than the usual mystery books I've read but still it was amazing.

And I'll stop at that.

Oh, yes! The Murder of Roger Ackroyd is also great!

Yes! I think theyve made a bunch of versions, but i watched the 1945 version on tubi (which you can get for free if you have roku) and it was really good! But i think BBC also made a series of it, although im not sure where you could get that

I didn't read it but if you love a book read the author's other book probably you are gonna love it.

Im currently reading Timeline by Michael Crichton (the guy who wrote the original Jurassic Park book) and i was expecting to hate it but its actually really good so far! Im only on about pg 150/500 tho, so i cant vouch for it as a whole but as of rn, I'd definitely recommend it!

Ok, update, im like 3/4 done with Timeline now, and id totally recommend it as a time travel book! Its so suspenseful and engaging and it was really hard for me to put it down!

[Dreamer]

I would really be grateful if you could give me any suggestions for a good historical fiction book, that also involves crime. Like, a historical mystery, or a historical thriller...

[Hailey]

this one doesn’t include crime but Chains (The Seeds of America Trilogy) is SOOOO good.

thanks, I'll check it out :)

Are there recommendations on books that have 200 pages or less? I'm having a tough time reading big books.

If You Come Softly is a really good short book! It's a YA romance with some hard hitting themes

I personally loved Two Past Midnight: Secret Window, Secret Garden :)

[Douha]

Any one have recommendation for a high schooler, it doesn't have to set in a high school and doesn't have to be a teens thing I mean the kinda books that discuss a serious issue like accepting yourself and mental health problems...etc

hmm, I'm not sure if that's exactly what you're looking for, but Every Day is a great book! Yeah, I read it before high school, and it actually is with teens, but it was the one that actually helped me understand how my body doesn't play a role in my personality, and how being LGBTQ is totally normal.. I highly suggest it :)

[Dreamer]

Do you have any suggestion for World War II books? Both fiction and non fiction are welcome :)

[Douha]

The Book Thief sets in world war II in german.

[Douha]

The Pianist: The Extraordinary Story of One Man's Survival in Warsaw, 1939–45, The Holocaust: The Jewish Tragedy, The Second World War: A Complete History.

Those are historical books I haven't read them but they're in my TBR

[Dreamer]

Thanks so much! I'll check out all of them :) (btw, I have heard The Book Thief is a great book, so I'll probably read it soon)

[Willow Anne]

I have so many i love! But some of my favs are
- Rose Under Fire
- The Nightingale
- All the Light We Cannot See
- Salt to the Sea

ohh, thank you! I've heard by many poeple (irl) that they loved All the Light We Cannot See, so I'll probably read it next!

hmm...i personally love All the Bright Places. I've heard some talk about how the characters "become" their mental illness, though. i think that's partially true, but over all, I think it's a really good book you may like. also, Dear Evan Hansen. i read this one a long time ago and don't remember everything, but I do remember how the mc grew to cope with his social anxiety and let his friends/family help him.

I think the Reign of Secrets series fits this perfectly! Its so underrated, but i loved it, and parts of it had me literally laughing so hard. Also i think theyre free on kindle unlimited if you have that. I just got the 30 day free trial and read them all there lol. (the first book in the series is Cage of Deceit btw)

[Dreamer]

Does anyone have any good mystery book suggestions? But the problem is that I don't want to read a shallow book, I want something with a deeper meaning. I kow that asking a deep mystery is a little difficult but I hope there are some out there... (like Foucault's Pendulum, for example)
