Bookmark It!: Stop, You’re Killing Me!

Not only do I think this site, Stop, You’re Killing Me! Is a great site, a lot of other folks do as well. Stop, You’re Killing Me! just won an Anthony Award for best website. The Anthony Awards were given out at the recent Bouchercon.

Now, this site didn’t win for beautiful photos or soothing color theme. It won for its information. If you read mystery or suspense, you’re gonna love this site. You can search by author names, character names, date written or award winners. There are indices for location, jobs, historical, diversity, and genre.

You want to read a series, but want to start from the beginning and can’t tell which one came first? Check here. Just find the series and the books are listed in order written.

Are you looking for books written in the same style as a beloved author? Look in the Read-Alikes section. It’s like having your very own librarian or friendly bookseller help you choose.

If you’re an author, you can email them to find out where to send your review copies so you can get listed here. Then your fans (and fans-in-the-making) can find you and discover your books.

And if you still want more, sign up for the newsletter.

Stop, You’re Killing Me! is a great resource for both writers and readers of mystery.

  6. It used to be one person, who handed it off to two, who now try to keep it updated. I would think it would be a daunting task!
