At CrimeCon we believe the only books worth reading are true crime books! True crime has fascinated writers for decades, creating some of the most haunting works of non-fiction that offer detailed, intelligent, and thoughtful insights into the most extraordinary cases and killers. The genre covers everything from well-known stories that grabbed headlines across the globe, to the personal accounts of the unanswered questions faced by victims' families.
Each month CrimeCon will highlight the unmissable top picks of the genre and invite you to read one true crime book selected by CrimeCon & Crime Monthly Magazine and then review it with the author themselves!
How To Join Our Book Club
On the 2nd Tuesday of every month, CrimeCon UK and Crime Monthly Magazine will host an Instagram Live to discuss the book with the author. The Instagram live will be hosted at 20:00 GMT / 15:00 EST.
It will be an interactive discussion - you will be able to ask can ask any questions or comment on the book, or just watch and enjoy!
You don’t have to be a CrimeCon ticket holder to join and there's no fee. This club is open to the wider true crime community, you just need to follow @crimecon_uk on Instagram to take part.
We hope you can join us! Follow the Instagram account for your chance to win books each month!
