| Hi! I would love some recommendations for your favorite thrillers and mysteries. As examples, I’ve loved books by Riley Sager, Alice Feeney, and Lucy Foley, as well as the Cormorant Strike series. I can’t stomach books with child abuse/death. Happy to share some of my favorite recommendations for those interested. Thanks so much! |

Gentleman and players by Joanne Harris (murder and intrigue at a British boarding school. part of a series-I believe this is the first one but not sure)
Frida Klein series by Nikki French (psychiatrist sleuth in London.) |
|
Things We Do in the Dark by Jennifer Hillier
Curfew by Jayne Cowie The One by John Marrs The Devotion of Suspect X by Keigo Higashino They Never Learn by Layne Fargo No Exit by Taylor Adams Falling by T.J. Newman I love all of Catherine Ryan Howard's books. |
| Slippery Creatures, KJ Charles |
| David Baldacci has some great series. |
| Karin Slaughter |
|
Simone St. James has some fantastic books…her early books take place in the 1940s (if memory serves) and her more recent books are a little more modern. There’s also at least one dual timeline.
Very atmospheric with some spice woven in. |
I think her first one, The Haunting of Maddy Clare, has quite a lot of sex in it, which surprised me. But none of the subsequent books. |
|
I don't read a lot of mysteries, but my favorites are:
Tana French Jane Harper Elly Griffith's Ruth Galloway series Ruth Ware (though I've found her hit or miss) |
Are you sure? I'm pretty sure the two leads get together in An Inquiry into Love and Death. He wants NSA at first. I'm almost positve. |
| Nine Lives by Peter Swanson. An update on Then There Were None. So good. |
| The Izzy Spellman Series by Lisa Lutz |
I started this series after reading a rec on dcum last year. I love it! |
| Read Freida McFadden- she has a huge cult following! You might also like books by Shari Lapena, Ruth Ware, and BA Paris. |
