Novel Noir

A novel that is specifically written to pay homage to or imitate the style of 1940s-1950s film noir. While many of the classic film noir movies of the period were themselves based on novels written in the noir style, these books would not be considered true Novel Noir because they would have been considered standard mystery/crime works in their own time. In other words, they weren't written with the tropes of film noir as we now know it in mind.

A key characteristic of Novel Noir is that it is consciously intended to emulate the gritty, shadowy black and white atmosphere of the classical Noir period. This is what sets the genre apart from works of contemporary mystery. The cutoff date for a true novel noir would likely be any time after the end of the classical American Noir era (generally accepted as the end of the 1950s).

A Novel Noir aims to recreate as closely as possible the elements of classic film noir. While certain aspects of a film can't be perfectly replicated in written form, novel noir works are characterized by vivid descriptions and deep immersion in the time period (often the 1930s, 1940s, or 1950s). Other characteristics are essentially the same as film noir: private eyes, morally gray scenarios and characters, crooked cops and shady gangsters, and of course, the mysterious and vexing femme fatale.
While film noir has faded in popularity since the end of the 1950s, authors continue to keep the genre alive by writing excellent works of novel noir.

Noriel

She's a funny girl, awesome, bold and good at all. She's trying her best at all times even she has a bad day. Mysterious person, but try to interact with her you'll gonna get a lesson in life that you'll never heard to someone. Moody everyday, but you're lucky person when you truly know how to get her. This name would be her lucky charm forever in her life and she should be thankful. Intelligent person like she's your teacher in history class. Fragile person, handle her emotion with care. She's a "sorry" person even you're joking with her and saying nonsense words. A friend that you will treasure because she knows you and a friend that always at your back. :)
