Genres

Psychological

The Psychological genre of books typically explores the inner workings of the human mind and emotions, often delving into complex and sometimes disturbing psychological states. These books may focus on mental illness, trauma, relationships, or personal growth, and often challenge readers to confront their own beliefs and perceptions. Psychological books may be suspenseful, thought-provoking, and emotionally intense, offering readers a deep and often unsettling glimpse into the human psyche.

Victoria

The "Victoria" category in books refers to a genre that encompasses literature set during the Victorian era, a period in British history marked by the reign of Queen Victoria from 1837 to 1901. This genre is characterized by its reflection of the social, cultural, and moral attitudes of the time, often highlighting the stark contrasts between the wealthy elite and the impoverished underclass, as well as the rapid industrialization and technological advancements that transformed society. Victorian literature typically features intricate plots, a focus on realism, and a deep exploration of character psychology, with common themes including the struggle for reform, the consequences of empire, and the complexities of gender roles. Works within this category may range from historical fiction that faithfully recreates the period's details to novels that critique or romanticize the era's values, written by both contemporary authors and those who lived during the Victorian age itself.
