Texreader James Rollins is my fave thriller writer. He does have an awesome series, Sigma Force, so avoid those. He has some older standalones. CJ Samson is my favorite mystery writer but it‘s the Shardlake series so I guess they won‘t work. 1y
shortsarahrose Gillian Flynn is sort of my obvious recommendation for thriller writers (Gone Girl and Dark Places are both great). I also thought this was a decent thriller 1y
Bluebird I second James Rollins. Ken Follett also has some good older thrillers. Lisa Jewell? My fav horror/mystery/thriller writer is Chris Carter-it is police procedural and a series, but can stand alone and might be a good transition author. Lol. 1y

CSeydel Nicci French maybe? 1y
CSeydel Or Ruth Ware 1y
julesG It's a small chunkster and has fantasy vibes, but might be good when expanding from horror 1y
julesG Dark mystery thriller, can be read as a standalone but beginning of a series 1y
julesG And a book I should not have started sitting on the London Underground with a 45min journey ahead of me 1y
julesG When I branched out from horror I read Kathy Reichs' first Tempe Brennan novel and Patricia Cornwell's Kay Scarpetta - but both are series 1y
julesG Also second James Rollins, this was my first 1y
Librarybelle This is thriller-esque but definitely creepy, which may make a nice bridge between horror and thrillers: 1y
robinb Thank you all so much!! 💙💙💙 I‘ve passed these along to Rachel, and I‘m happy to check them out for myself. 😊 @CogsOfEncouragement @Librarybelle @julesG @CSeydel @Bluebird @shortsarahrose @Texreader 1y
Dragon Oh just noticed some one else already said it so I‘ll also suggest - I enjoy most of Ruth Ware‘s Thrillers 1y
Dragon An Australian thriller 1y
robinb @Dragon thank you!! I‘ve already got this one on MY list! 😊 1y
Dragon 👍💚🐉 1y
Dragon Thought of another one I liked 1y

Honestly I have been really bad this month. I didn't get to this month's book. I will hopefully get to it in the future (where I read all my books, haha NOT!)
Lately it's been my little man. He does and says the funniest things... sometimes bad things. He is 3 and likes to copy what we say. He swears!
February was crazy. We moved into a better place and just tried to get our lives in some kind of order.

ElizaMarie So glad you are all moved in and the place will work better for you! You deserve to have a nice home and area to relax in. 4y
