Bug Report

Describe the bug
The Thriller Books section displays incorrect books that
don't belong to the thriller genre:

  • Dune (Science Fiction)
  • 1984 (Dystopian Fiction)
  • The Hobbit (Fantasy)
  • Pride & Prejudice (Romance/Classic)

Expected behavior
The Thriller section should display actual thriller books.

Proposed Fix
Remove the incorrectly categorized books and replace them
with actual thriller titles such as:

  • Gone Girl - Gillian Flynn
  • The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - Stieg Larsson
  • The Silent Patient - Alex Michaelides
    -The house across the Lake- Riley Sagar

I am a GSSoC 2026 contributor and would like to work on this fix.

    Hi @devanshi14malhotra! Sorry for the delay — I ran into a few issues while working on this. My changes got split across two branches (main and patch-1) by mistake so I'm fixing that right now. The PR should be up within the next 30 minutes! 🙏
