Mystery Lovers Group

Fourth Wednesday of the Month
Are you a fan of whodunits, thrillers, or classic detective fiction? The Mystery Lovers group is a welcoming space for anyone who enjoys reading, discussing, and even writing mysteries. We bring a variety of interests to the table—some of us are devoted to golden-age detective stories, while others prefer modern psychological thrillers or police procedurals.
Our discussions often center around favorite mystery writers and what makes their storytelling compelling. We explore themes, character development, and the art of crafting a satisfying twist. Occasionally, members may be inspired to share their own novel ideas or even excerpts of their writing for feedback in a supportive environment. Whether you’re a lifelong mystery reader, an aspiring author, or just curious, join us for engaging conversations and a shared love of the genre!
