Literary Mystery Books to Read This Winter

Taylor
As book lovers, we’re avid fans of lots of genres. We’re therefore intrigued by books that blend several genres into a novel that’s not quite classifiable – because it’s not just one thing. One of the best examples of genre-bending books is the literary mystery. These books have elements of suspense, of course, but mix in literary elements like family sagas, spiritual journeys, and symbolism. We’ve pulled together some of our favorite mystery novels that are also literary fiction books in this list of books to read this winter.
