You’ll find some YA, historical mysteries (one with a Jane Austen twist, knowledge of classics not necessary), cozies with witches (for fans of Practical Magic), dark academia (not one, but two new releases!), a mystery for word fans (Scrabble is still hot, Wordle be damned), return-home mystery, and even a museum heist. And as a bonus, for paperback lovers, I’ve added some now-in-paperback excitement for some of last year’s excellent hardcover releases. Select your favorite snacks, drink, and pick your place to hunker down to read because here are your April mystery releases to know.
