Why mystery is the most-loved genre

In our world, we can find an explanation for everything. But, as Tanis Taylor says, we should leave some room for mystery. Avid readers of this genre will claim that it’s the thrill of suspense—the mystery—that interests them. But what exactly is the reason for mystery novels being so popular among readers? Read on to find the most prevalent reasons.


A good mystery novel captures readers’ attention and takes them to a land of adventure and intrigue; and who wouldn’t want to immerse themselves in a fictional world that will take away their real-life troubles!

Mysteries have puzzles. Readers enjoy piecing together the clues, and if they do this one step ahead of the detective, their confidence just increases a notch.

Mystery causes the readers to think upon plausible outcomes, making their imagination run wild. In short, mystery novels fire the readers imagination, making them think outside the box, so to speak. Another captivating aspect of a good mystery novel is its characters, especially the antagonist. Watching flawed characters grow because they must, and wondering if they are capable of growing, or if they will fail spectacularly is what excites the readers.

In mystery novels, death is a reasonable outcome. So, just for the duration of that novel, readers accept and understand that death cannot be evaded, and we can accept it.
